A share rising substantially on no apparent news in the present turbulence, anyone any idea why.

nice buy by L&G at the PIs expense no doubt, cashing in on a lttle bit of weakness.

I agree WJCCGHCC. Selling a few shares seems quite reasonable especially as selling a batch each year helps use capital gains allowances. Money is no use if its all tied up in shares. We all need to enjoy a little. There is still plenty of commitment going forward and revised EPS forecasts look encouraging.

[wjccghcc] 22/7/2007 18:22

Not really. All bar one are selling less than 10% and most less than 5% of their holdings. They're a bit like Severfield Rowen in that they tend to sell after each results announcement - didn't stop the SFR share price appreciating considerably.

Broker forecasts upgraded by 5% puts them on a current year PE of 17 dropping to 15 next year.

Not pretty that RNS today directors offloading in droves as they emerge from closed period...not likely to be anything much in the offing to drive share price forward for a while yet then.......

Still looks good long term even if it does drop back a bit over the summer due to market nerves etc.





Good luck

The IC write up is already on their website.
The future looks bright trading on 18x forecast earnings and the shares remain a buy.
Record order book, improved margins, unprecedented global demand for infrastructutre, etc
;-)

I would not worry.

Almost invariably, shares fall on results. In this case, the results were trailed. I would expect the share price to move ahead strongly after the weekend - at least I hope so!

[rik shaw] 12/7/2007 12:41

They'll be a write up in IC next week and people will cotton on eventually.

[savage3] 12/7/2007 11:47

Well all I can say is I'm bitterly disappointed by the market's reaction

[lanzarote666] 12/7/2007 08:04

Stonking set of results.

[rogerbridge] 12/7/2007 08:04

Excellent resuls and good opportunities going forward. Will add.

[rik shaw] 07/7/2007 22:32

Taking account of 2 significant earnings enhancing acquisitions back in Dec I will be looking closely at results to see what effect they are having, if any yet. Interims saw 7.5p I believe, so I'm surprised forecasts are only looking for around 15p for full year.

We may all be pleasantly surprised by results on Thursday. One to watch I suggest.

[rampmeister] 07/7/2007 08:21

Two 50k buys yesterday as we approach results next Thursday.

Would I be too abitious to look for 360p on results and 400p by end of year ? Who knows.

[rampmeister] 29/6/2007 18:19

Rik, higher volume could continue as we approach results which will be ahead of market expectations.

RM

[rik shaw] 28/6/2007 19:49

Big volume today could be reason for chart staring to rise. 2% of company traded but mostly in a handful of large trades.

[rik shaw] 23/6/2007 08:14

It seems quiet here, with results just over two weeks away and a positive trading statement just a month or so ago.

Construction is still very buoyant as noted in an article this week in Building Magazine entitled "In times of famine", ie referring to construction materials. Shortages of materials etc leading to price increases, which should continue to benefit the fees charged by consultants such as SWG, HYC etc.

Note SCSW says the shares are likely to move higher - keep holding.
We know results due 12th july will be ahead of market expectations and should give more guidance on current trading.

Nice buying opportunity for lon termers

[petemorr] 05/6/2007 17:34

Still here just waiting for the results and hoping for a move up...

[cottlet] 05/6/2007 13:19

Seems a while since any body had anything to say! Who knows something?
