Named on the possible bid target 2021 list for investors - 'Metro to be bought by Goldman S Marcus to get a foothold in uk bank / web space, carnival by Saudi's who already own a large stake and Marks and Spencer by Amazon with petty cash. Foxtons a bid from USA company to get into the London market post Brexit'.

Bid and offer rising here, hopefully a challenge
of 42.8p is on the cards.

SikhAgree, government have no plans to extend the stamp duty holiday, but that doesn't mean it won't happen. The industry have already written to the chancellor requesting it is extended 6 months, a petition is also in progress.As posted nobody can know with any certainty what will happen. The same can be said with regards to HTB. I'm invested so naturally look at it optimistically, you are in the opposite camp, which is fair enough, only time will tell.

When I feel like that I just continue to buy small amounts and
use the low rating as an opportunity.

Can someone tell the stock that the price is wrong

[topazfrenzy] 18/11/2020 14:45

i hope you're right :0)

I agree. The London market has normalised. In fact, it's racing ahead with the usual lag to completions. News will be very positive in the next update imo.

I feel it will be getting bought by the fund managers
especially after George Soros buying here. Once this is through 50p it will
zoom. This is just like when I was buying itv in the 50p's all quiet
then click and to 97p. Same will happen here I feel.

dd45,
"Could be that stamp duty and help to buy is extended"


Doesn't seem to be any plans to extend the schemes.
The government allowed Estate Agents to remain open during the current lockdown. I think they did that so they don't need to extend the Stamp Duty Hol.
Help to Buy for 2nd homes is ending 31st March 2020. The remaining H2B scheme ends March 2023. Currently there are no plans to extend it.
Question is whether buyers will be confident to continue whilst covid infections are surging.

Given, on avg, it takes months from initial instructions to sell, viewing to completion, the deadline for buyers to take advantage of H2B/Stamp Duty hol is around Nov-Dec, ie now.



"Separately, the government's new Help to Buy scheme, which will replace the current scheme, will come into place from 1 April 2021 and run until March 2023 as planned and there are no plans for further extensions."

most boring share going this one
zzzzzzzz

[srpactive] 18/11/2020 09:33

Moving nicely now, very steadily but that we do me, we have
broke the trendline from the fall after outbreak of c19, so
should move hopefully to 50p very shortly.

Could be that stamp duty and help to buy is extended, who knows, but do think one will if nothing else.

[sikhthetech] 17/11/2020 11:13

Foxtons and other Estate Agents are busy as buyers try to beat the Stamp Duty hol. Sellers reducing asking prices to beat the Stamp Duty hol. I think house prices will fall.

Stamp Duty hol ends 31st March.
Help to Buy for 2nd homes ends 31st March.
Furlough ends 31st March.


""But instead we have a slight dip, which could be a result of some new sellers pricing more realistically to have a better chance of agreeing a sale in time to benefit from the stamp duty savings on their onward purchase.""

discodave4/45 has multiple handles beware.

[babycheeky] 16/11/2020 11:41

Here we go same old lie dave.

I’m not an ex mm as you keep lying.

On the other hand it is not difficult to see you are discodave4, post on a lot of the same shares, lies, same tactics when you get angry.

You are a laugh mate as well as a prize fool.

[babycheeky] 16/11/2020 11:32

I see you are still ticking up your own posts with your other handles. Shows the lengths you go to in your attempt to deceive and con.

[babycheeky] 16/11/2020 11:30

LOL

You have no idea dave. None.

[discodave45] 16/11/2020 11:27

This was slightly higher than 50p for a few days in June so don't see any reason it won't return to that level, and beyond, now the outlook from a C19 perspective is looking a lot better.

[rochdae] 16/11/2020 09:53

Well, I'll be happy with 50p. But I agree this has been binned due to covid. But the market is picking up in London and it's a good cash rich company. As usual the doomsters don't get the fact that the market just buys yield ..This one is looking tasty...

Looking better here, with no covid vaccine bounce yet and
George Soros buying 5%, I continue to increase, my target
is 80p short term.

Agree, this is still cheap and tempted to top up even though it is the worst performer so far in my PF.
