Charts turning, wouldn't be surprised if we hav a step up from here.

I'm thinking about investoging in SIG for the very first time! What do you think lads!?

[scars] 24/9/2009 09:01

Can anyone briefly fill me in on the dramatic history of SHI? I am looking for recovery plays and obviously a couple of years ago this was at a peak of 1400 and not having been at this level since 1999.

Just a rough outline will do.

junior21,

Thanks for your response. Only just seen it.

Kanwar,

IMHO, no. Chalk & cheese. It would be like M&S buying one of their own suppliers - why would they?

Maybe a better buy for one of the big merchant groups

Travis Perkins - St Gobain (Jewson)

A slight pick up in the market during winter would have a large benefit to SIG share price (imo) it also fits well with Carbon reduction Green lobby.

[kanwar] 23/9/2009 08:44

Not trying to ramp...but would sig be a good buy for one of the big house builder?

My opinion, for what it's worth, is that the recent rise is comparitively little compared to what the share price once was, so not worth reading too much into it.

Generally, I feel that since the placing the company is in a lot better position to benefit from any upturn. Granted, there may be more downside to come, but I believe the upside outweighs the downside with the share price at these levels. As ever, time will tell.

Just started looking at this as a recovery play. Well done to KingL for his posts in 07; he certainly saw the writing on the wall for this one! I suppose the current odds on success/failure depend on whether we're in for a double-dip recession - the recent rise seems to be based more on a general 'feelgood' factor that the recession is over (hence lots of building stocks bouncing e.g. housebuilders, TPK etc) but this has not yet fed through into the real world where construction is still at a very low ebb. If the housing market remains depressed, the rise in the share price could be a false dawn which is not supported by earnings. What does anyone think?

Regards, Ian

Seems to be stuck with no positive buy ratings at the moment. It just seems someone out there is stock building?...

[kanwar] 08/9/2009 09:16

Of course there maybe a many pullbacks along the way...but these look a solid hold ,imho....

[adda] 08/9/2009 08:54

Interesting in June/July you had contributors who were predicting sub 50p. They have disappeared and you now have those suggesting 2.00. When you look at the likes of TPK and builders these appear to have some catching up to do?? Think I may dip my toes in if we get a Sept sell off 1.30/1.20ish level

[kanwar] 08/9/2009 08:53

Topped up twice in the last few days..lookingto break 1.45 at some point I hope.

[raisinwheats] 01/9/2009 17:22

I thought about it Kanwar. Bought more ROS instead. :) I am hoping for over 200p in time maverick. I ike this share. Solid company and in my experience it has more resilience than most on the down days. My favourite atm.

[kanwar] 01/9/2009 10:43

Down with the rest of the market today, looking to top up...

[maverick247] 28/8/2009 11:07

I'm hoping these will go as my Taylor Wimpey are at the moment! Can easily see these moving to 200p - good solid company.

[kanwar] 28/8/2009 10:03

Onwards and upwards!!

[junior21] 27/8/2009 20:15

Nice to see director buying

[kanwar] 25/8/2009 21:22

New to this stock, bought in @1.33,looking good to £2.00 imho.....

[raisinwheats] 20/8/2009 12:52

People waiting for results before buying in? From what I can see results were broadly better than expected. I bought recently and am pleased with today to be honest (so far anyway) :)

[junior21] 20/8/2009 12:49

Well it looks as though the market likes the results.

Definitely looks a safer bet to survive the current climate and kick on once the economy improves than it has previously.

[matthewa] 20/8/2009 08:18

It was , though debt down a lot

[rgjones] 19/8/2009 21:21

I think it will be pretty bad!
