Meanwhile this breaks new lows daily. The 10 p level is still a little way off but it gets closer daily...

Think your way off on housebuilders. Structural shortage of housing. Throwing off cash left right and centre. Affordability still pretty strong vs renting. Valuations modest.

Closing my shorts off this morning. Annoying buying last week. Probably short positions closing off open offer elections. Should really be much lower given barrage of stock about to hit market this week.

The next step is now to short the top 5 house builders.Barrats.Taylor wimpy.Persimmon.Beekeley.Bellway.These are my five biggest short posistions for the next 12 months.Free advice, do your own research.Bond markets in turmoil and interest rates are omly going one way...UP!The smart money is already on.Trade well!

B1 coin

LOL Well you are going to need it !! Should think plenty of sellers at 15p for a quick little earner thanks very much goodbye and good luck when trading starts

This is going to get carved up with many of the "brands " just vanishing for SFA They are currently trying to recruit like mad offering top salaries to neggies

Brandes still selling down. Another 1.2m disposed. Not surprising perhaps when they're buying 228m @ 10p.

[hillofwad] 23/8/2018 11:10

Well at 25p that will put a valuation of over £400 m with 1.638m shares in issue.,Good luck with that one!!

[hillofwad] 23/8/2018 09:12

Well the poor genuine investor unfortunately has slipped their load. To stand any chance of remaining intact wholesale changes of BODS with some heavyweights required

If that isn't announced its clear that they are going for an orderly breakup with many of the brands unbuckling gratis and good luck if you think this will achieve 25p

They certainly wont be getting a premium price for LSH where many of the top dogs there will be leaving together with clients .That's the way it works

The market is difficult enough without the extra burden of paying off a debt incurred unncessarily by a hapless by set of BODS the fee earners still have to answer too

It's failed no synergy for being attached to the CWD banner

[typo56] 22/8/2018 16:48

Welcome back b1. For a moment I feared we'd lost you when they dipped to 12.5p.

[hillofwad] 21/8/2018 22:02

Well this is what it seems to me .They have participated in the capital raise I guess on the basis in for a penny in for a pound -having lost a ton It's been clear that demand from private share holders has been muted hardly surprising as some will unfortunately have been cleaned out

In the last week or so seen I guess they have seen any price over 12p as worth taking and Brandes taking the money when they can have dumped 1%

I certainly think that is very bad form and speaks volumes This was emergency funding - sticking plaster . Time to head for the hills

[typo56] 21/8/2018 19:21

I'm not sure how much you can read into that. Brandes have actually been selling down CWD all year (they held over 17% at the start of the year) and have been selling down stocks in general (e.g. LSL, CCR, ITE, DEB).

[hillofwad] 21/8/2018 16:58

LOL Brandes who have taken a right pasting buying all the way down joined in the capital raise with Oaktree have been taking an early bath selling over the last week Reducing their holding before the deluge starts You couldn't make it up for a show of no confidence

[porsche1945] 21/8/2018 16:08

The only surprise here is that idiot Woodford isnt heavily invested in Countrywide haha, it is a disaster of his sort of investing scale, Prothena, AM, Capita etc....this dross would have fitted in nicely.

[ltcm1] 21/8/2018 14:45

It is a total scandal that they suddenly realised they were broke when they have this huge rental business producing very regular cash flow.

I mean it was obvious when stamp duty went up the high end would go through an adjustment phase.

Why didn't they see the RI coming months ago and be able to offer it to all investors???

This is a total scandal.

[topazfrenzy] 21/8/2018 09:33

5p by Xmas here, then it may be worth a punt

[andrewhbruce] 21/8/2018 07:59

P1945 is dead right and the glass has a huge hole in the bottom!

[typo56] 21/8/2018 07:50

Only 72% take up of open offer. Holders of 28% don't think they're worth 10p? They won't receive anything for lapsed entitlements.

So you’re a glass half full kind of fella 😄

[porsche1945] 20/8/2018 21:51

What a dog of a company, will end up being taken private for a few pennies. The UK property market is tanking, brexit and higher rates, rising taxes, falling incomes and rising inflation, it writes itself, estate agents going bust is the canary in the coal mine. Why anyone invests hard earned into rubbish like this is beyond me.

[smithless] 20/8/2018 14:55

Thank heavens for shareholders power. The Chairman, MD and CFO should all be sacked and replaced. The greed of the trio is just unbelievable considering the financial mess they helped get the business into - if it wasn't for a deeply discounted placing it would have gone bust. NEW BLOOD is needed IMHO - hopefully, large shareholders will make it happen.
