I don't often post on these boards but do read a number to try to learn more about the companies in which I invest(lose money!).
Until the last dozen or so posts, I thought this was one of the more sensible boards in ADVFN, but I heartily agree with tyranosaurus' last comment, though I personally might have phrased his second sentence slightly more tactfully but with the same meaning!

tyranosaurus

Some thought you were not alive anymore ... extinct
do not bother to talk something nice for the company for a change on looking at you last post not even today you manage anything about INL apart from being rude there is no excuse for that even if you have "Corona" LOL, do not forget to wash your hands and a face mask is nowadays a priority so you do not pass it on.

You are still a learner. On being so many post the thread was at the top of BB and many bought for that reason and the shares have gone up.

Idiots like you "Rubicon" are close to the Plage and can not see it. The PM must be very close to you thoughts, but has been wrong once more, I will tell you one thing.... all those women around his life tells you a lot about him.
And one more thing, the best men are the ones that talk little and do plenty, never trust those big mouthy, half of it, is LIES.
About time you get the magnifying glass and not the Cristal Ball.

From the BBC today but I was ahead yesterday and before ....


Coronavirus: Health experts 'frustrated' by low UK virus testing

Drive-through testing sites for some NHS staff have opened in southern England
Health officials say they are "frustrated" by a lack of progress in expanding UK coronavirus testing.

Prof Paul Cosford of Public Health England (PHE) said "everybody involved" is unhappy testing has not "got to the position yet that we need to get to".

Prime Minister Boris Johnson responded to criticism of the UK's strategy by hailing screening as a solution to "unlock the puzzle" of coronavirus.

It came as a further 569 patients died with coronavirus in UK hospitals.

UK house price growth ‘grinding to a halt’ after rising in March / 2 April 20
UK house prices rose in March but the market is now "grinding to a halt" due to the coronavirus and government measures to slow its spread, according to a survey released by Nationwide on Thursday.

Prices pushed up 3% on the year following a 2.3% rise in February and beating expectations for a 2% increase. This marked the fastest pace since January 2018, when annual growth was 3.2%.

On the month, prices were up 0.8% compared to 0.3% growth in February and versus expectations of a 0.1% decline.

Nationwide noted that while it uses a full month’s worth of data to generate the index, the cut-off point is slightly before the end of the month, meaning that the government lockdown is not reflected in the figures.

Nationwide’s chief economist, Robert Gardner, said: "In the opening months of 2020, before the pandemic struck the UK, the housing market had been steadily gathering momentum. Activity levels and price growth were edging up thanks to continued robust labour market conditions, low borrowing costs and a more stable political backdrop following the general election.

"But housing market activity is now grinding to a halt as a result of the measures implemented to control the spread of the virus, and where the government has recommended not entering into housing transactions during this period. Indeed, a lack of transactions will make gauging house price trends difficult in the coming months."

Samuel Tombs, chief UK economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said this was more evidence of a strong pre-virus recovery.

"The housing market had considerable momentum before Covid-19, but now will grind to a halt," he said.

"The government has recommended that people do not enter into housing transactions during the lockdown, and the majority of surveyors will not enter other peoples’ homes, making it virtually impossible to obtain a mortgage with a LTV ratio above 60%. So far, mortgage rates have fallen only marginally in response to the MPC’s actions; data from Moneyfacts show that lenders’ average Standard Variable Rate was a mere 6bp lower at the end of March than just before the MPC’s first rate cut.

"Over the same period, two-year and five-year fixed rates have dropped by just 4bp and 3bp, respectively. These modest declines won’t suffice to stabilise demand. The supply of homes on the market, however, likely will contract too.

"Forced sales should remain rare; lenders are automatically granting struggling borrowers a three-month payment holiday, while the government’s Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme should help to keep a lid on unemployment. House prices surely will dip over the coming months, but a complete recovery by the end of the year still is possible, if restrictions on the economy are lifted by the summer."

Money Isn’t Everything

1. Rich people are often unhappy
- only have to look at the tabloid news to see that the lives of the rich and famous are far from rosy.

2. You can’t buy love
- With millions in the bank how can you be sure that the love of your life is genuinely interested in you as a person?

3. You can’t take it with you
- The old saying rings true – nobody on their death bed will be rejoicing in their many houses, cars, watches and possessions they left behind.

4. Health
- Money simply cannot buy you health.

5. Family
- no amount of money in the world can replace the joy that your loved ones.

Money Has Its Limits
This is probably the most scientific and well-thought out reason out there. Yes, contrary to how we always feel like we need more, money does have its limit. There will come a point in your life where money just stops giving you the happiness you expect it to.

WTF has that got to do with INL.

[hawaly] 02/4/2020 11:46

Yes absolutely "Who won the Euros in 2019"

I'd never have thought of using that in any disscussion - well done, well done.

Moronic response Build 200,000 homes a yearThen what?Another 200,000 for their offspring and divorces ad infinitum on an exponential curveThink it through - theres only so much land which contrasts with millions of acres available in France Spain and Germany

The only losers are YOU two, some type of Bar stewards people say, they can not see at the end of their NOSE.

I did not vote, SO I CAN NOT SEE HOW I LOST, and always talk the truth how I see it,
and yesterday was the first time I made a comment in a BB posting. Another point I always I have asking myself is ... why it can not be a party in between the Tory and Labour, why it has to be those extremes ways of life.

I did not like the way the Europeans were doing many things, but you have to consider they are acting as the well being of all the people, something I realised the Conservative are NOT despite the promises of previous PM saying, She will make sure the UK will be a more equal country when MAY was elected, but she never was allowed to do so.

Just look at the crisis of the houses, promises of building 200,000 every year but never fulfil, why.... too many houses means the prices will not rise so much and the owners and renters of them will not get too many benefits/profits.
Ask yourself who are the owners/renters..... mosly the Conservative party supporters. No wonder a poor worker many years ago, he lost his job and the house also eventualy could not pay the mortgage, the Conservative told me they are CONS, he was trying to make a rhym, I did not see it at the time, but I realised now how true is as the years go bye.

note:
Never supported any party
I have been a shareholder for many decades, so I support Capitalism
and I am a charity house helper for many years, for those less fortunate than me.

re - sometimes governments are slow to react
spob

Why?
They had plenty of time to see what was going on 1st in China then Italy, Spain, and yet nothing was arranged or lockdown earlier.

My conclusion is, this Government is not good enough for this task, and Boris had too much in mind the business (money ) as is the other one big mouth Trump, and now they pay the consequences over there also.

A government made to get out of EUROPE with mostly lies and promises not able to accomplished in the future, with no idea how the country will come out at the end and if is any light at the end of the tunnel.

Bdw, the top medical staff (advises ), does not seem much better also

This is my personal view for some time on talking with friends, but it seems it comes to reality as the days go on. it reminds me of Churchill that was very good for the WAR, but not to Govern.

" I've been trying to think through to the other side of this pandemic "


I dont spend too much time worrying about it

I know when the shutdown ends things will bounce back very quickly


life goes on

you can't stop it


sometimes governments are slow to react

but they are now doing what needs to be done


alternative malarial drugs will eventually start being used to treat patients

and a vaccine will be widely available by the end of the year

Interesting piece. Talk of a strong recovery for housebuilders. BEST BUY stated as Berkeley Group (BKG)

[skyship] 31/3/2020 17:53

I've been trying to think through to the other side of this pandemic; starting with the basic assumption that thanks to human ingenuity there will soon be another side.

There will be less Retail and fewer restaurants. There will be more Industrial as manufacturing reverts to shorter supply chains; and re-shores many of the jobs lost over the past 20-30 years.

There will be more house-building as the Government attempts to accelerate a good news story...

Must be a fund mopping up the loose stock, that my thinking away.

[skyship] 30/3/2020 16:51

INL should come out of all this in reasonable shape; and surely encouraging that the share price closed above 40p after pretty heavy volume - over 2m I recall...

Some good figures for February on Mortgages aprprovals..........

Mortgage approvals surged before Covid-19 crisis

Mortgage approvals rose to a six-year high in February as confidence briefly returned to the property market before the onset of the coronavirus crisis, the Bank of England said.

Approved loans for house purchases reached 73,500 in February – the highest monthly total since January 2014 and 12% more than the average for 2019. Remortgage approvals also rose to 53,400, the BoE said.

The figures show the housing market beginning to revive after December's general election reduced short-term political uncertainty caused by Brexit. But the market has virtually shut down in March to comply with government measures to combat Covid-19. Many mortgage lenders have severely cut their mortgage range too.

Samuel Tombs, chief UK economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said: "The surge in mortgage approvals … confirms that the general election result revitalised the housing market. Admittedly, many of these proposed transactions likely will not be completed any time soon, due to Covid-19. Moreover, house purchase mortgage approvals likely will collapse over the coming months, now that virus-related restrictions and fears mean very few homes can be viewed."

The sharp rise in mortgage lending was not replicated in consumer credit. Households borrowed an additional £0.9bn in February – down from £1.1bn in January. Net borrowing on credit cards was zero, weaker than in recent months. Businesses borrowed £1.3bn – below the two-year average but stronger than the preceding four months.

Tombs said the figures showed household finances in relatively good shape before the Covid-19 pandemic took hold.

I heard a commentator say the other day that there is unlikely to be a long term downturn in the housing market as there was plenty of demand just a few weeks ago, and there will still be many people whose jobs have not been seriously affected who'll come out of the other side of this and be keen to borrrow large sums of money at next to nothing. Let's hope that's right.

As for the dividend, they never really wanted to pay that anyway did they!
