Trading update thursday.

Should benefit from clarity in the US election / Biden and BJ fiscal stimulus and a november trading update with confirmation of a strong H2 performance should land shortly. Makes this a decent entry point?

The UK construction industry suffered a “setback to recovery” in August after the rapid expansion in July when lockdown eased, according to the latest purchasing managers’ index.

The UK construction PMI, a closely followed indicator, fell to 54.6 in August, according to data company IHS Markit and the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply.

That was well above the 50 mark which indicates expansion in the sector, but down from 58.1 in July and below the 58.5 reading expected on average by economists.

Outlook is positive, but the results are average. ok the dividend reinstated is positive but the market always seems to react to what’s on the table now. Think it will fall again tomorrow, still long.

[philanderer] 06/8/2020 15:14:04

Can't make up it's mind whether to go north or south ;-)

IC View

In the near term, the group is likely to benefit from government measures to stimulate the economy through infrastructure spending, particularly more immediate ‘shovel ready’ projects.
It also stands to capitalise on longer-term infrastructure plans such as the UK’s £27bn five-year 'Road Investment Strategy'.

In the meantime, £193m of headroom on its borrowing facilities should provide sufficient liquidity to weather any tougher times ahead. Buy.

Last IC View: Buy, 1,444p, 4 Mar 2020

Dividend being paid :-)

Very good set of results given the circumstances

[redartbmud] 05/8/2020 08:22:26

Still holding too, but I see Muir's retirement as a possible negative. The business has done well under his leadership.

[joshuam] 05/8/2020 08:10:05

Outlook sounds positive, market reacting positive early doors, still holding.

Markit said the June print was the fastest rise in construction activity for nearly two years and indicated a strong increase in total construction output. Further, the June data pointed to a sharp turnaround in the performance of the UK construction sector as the phased restart of work on site helped to lift output volumes and boost business confidence.
