Looks to be well into oversold territory at present. This is a great company with excellent prospects linked to a range of products including potential for low carbon footprint modular housing etc.

PS,their AGM is tomorrow so we'll get an idea of how trading is going.

Figis,share prices go up and down.The bull case for the share would probably focus on the regulatory environment in which Kingspan opreates,i.e. governments are leglislating to have higher building standards adhered to.Well-run companies producing insulation boards and panels have benefited.This,of course,is just one part of their story.You can get free company reports and compare/contrast them with others operating in the same space.Regards,dj

Please does anyone know why the share price rose 5.70% to day? This is a great well managed company. The share price has doubled in a comparatively short period of time.

I would be very grateful for any response

Fifteen times more sells than buys this morning and share price up 1.3% may suggest a large buy order has to be filled ,will find out at the end of the day unless somebody can enlighten me on some other theory.

[hot pepi] 14/5/2007 21:33

Seems as though something is going on behind the scenes judgeing by the amount of traded volume

[djderry] 01/5/2007 23:02

How many threads have you posted that report on? Do you post everytime the Iseq goes up as well?

Housing nerves knock 1.6bn off Iseq

Jitters about the housing market knocked €1.6 billion off the value of the Irish stock market yesterday, bringing the amount it has lost this week to almost €3 billion.

The worst hit were those companies most exposed to the property sector, namely the mortgage-lenders and the construction companies, as the latest Permanent TSB/ESRI house price index showed that the average price paid for a house in Ireland last month was €309,071, down 0.6 per cent from February.

Dublin dealers said that, coming on the back of the negative sentiment seen in the Spanish property market earlier in the week, the nervousness among investors was not surprising. "Buyers are certainly waiting in the wings and biding their time," said one trader.

The Spanish stock market, the Ibex 35 index of leading shares, dropped 2.7 per cent on Tuesday, prompted by panic-selling of property stocks following the slump of one of the index's construction companies.

Earlier this week commentators likened the Spanish housing sector to Ireland's, saying that the high levels of housing activity in both economies was unsustainable. However, others were quick to point out that other areas of the Irish economy remained robust and that there was no reason why a soft landing in the housing market could not be achieved.

Yesterday dealers said that the sell-ff was likely to be a blip and somewhat exaggerated because of the heavy weighting of the Iseq towards financial and construction stocks.

The situation was also exacerbated by the continuing declines in the value of the dollar, which has implications for Irish companies which export to the US and those which have operations in the region.

Overall, the Iseq fell 1.4 per cent, to 9,470, its lowest closing level in more than three weeks

Hi SimonGn.
Yep! stating the obvious. Big user of their products and moving my house building co. over to their large panel fabrication. Going to see a lot of Kingspan products in coming years ( after house building recovers)
