There aren't any youngsters on this board and he (the teenager) had an underlying medical condition but your point is well made.

Sadly,countries like Luxembourg suspended construction projects last week.

In case any of you youngsters think you are ok..

This is serious....
Maintain social distance..

1 NHS who joined ADVFN as a free member in July last year has created his own thread.A thread mostly dominated by his own prophetic posts of doom.


In stark contrast to 1NHS it’s interesting to note that the Wall Street Journal,whilst not underestimating the seriousness of things,thought that things could bounce back fairly swiftly.It also mentioned that China had every intention(rather ironically given its most recent unwelcome export)of stepping up its foreign investments worldwide and will certainly be up for snapping up timely investments in Europe etc.I wouldn’t like it personally but I would have thought that potentially stricken engineering companies and HB companies would be on China’s shopping list.The trouble with 1NHS that he makes these historical parallels but fails to realise that the world has moved on.He likes to think he is prophetic but he lacks vision.

I had an email to ensure we had continuity of supplies, I am sure they will have materials in place to complete houses that are sold.I assume they are currently not worried beyond that.

Jug good realistic posts, ironically were loaded up last week with orders from HB's coronavirus signs!! The negative I'm getting reports back off major HB's supply issue delays from manufacturing plants due to CV, if it escalates we have to face facts of site closures.Just a possibility and I hope not the case for a strong industry.

It's worth remembering,There are thousands of shops both retail & supermarkets, thousands of transport companies pubs restaurants,night clubs, petrol stations etc etc , there are not however thousands of house builders & of these there are only a handful of large private house builders, I will let you do your own home work on this. But have said before something like this will.wipe all the small boys out, so even less competition. What may seem.bad now almost certainly wont over the next few years

[alangriffbang] 22/3/2020 18:10

Barrett developments are top of the list as a buy in the times today ,shows there is still a lot of faith behind HB ,

[essentialinvestor] 22/3/2020 17:16

The share price chart for TW is available going right back to 1988, it may not account
for RI's etc.

[1 nhs] 22/3/2020 17:07

You buy builders at the bottom of the cycle

NOT WHEN PRICES ARE AT AN ALL TIME HIGH.

[jugears] 22/3/2020 16:50

gbh2, & a few pages before in same paper it said HB's were a good investment & could still pay dividends.

[1 nhs] 22/3/2020 15:20

Us GDP 2019 21 trillion

Us debt by end of this year $30 trillion plus.

Simple as that

GAME OVER

[1 nhs] 22/3/2020 15:17

Without debt ( mortgages ) houses are worth 1.5 times wages

Just like China 50 years ago

[1 nhs] 22/3/2020 15:15

Try and have an open mind NOT BASED ON YOUR EXPERIENCE IN LIFE.

The world has changed

The virus fear, and that of debt is going to kill the consumer dead.

That’s why are grandma and pa were happy if they had a two bed terrace with outside bog.

JUG,

"This epidemic is short term so don't put off that purchase you were going to make do it now whilst prices are low, "

House prices are not low at the moment... Essential workers like nurses can't afford them so resort to renting...

If anything I think the current crisis is likely to focus the govn mind more on ensuring more affordable housing in the future..

I think the economic downturn will be severe. I think we'll see house prices drop around an avg of 30-40% over the next 2-3yrs. I was already expecting a house price crash due to Dubai and India being on a cliff edge, before Covid-19 and because more and more btl investors selling...


SPOT ON

Turvart I have been interested in the bus & coach industry all my life & this is one I would avoid like the plague, There were already Big problems with PSVR & now CV, ITV will have know new programmes or advertising revenue- Very poor investments Stick TO TW , Cash rich,Asset rich.

[turvart] 22/3/2020 14:49

Jugs are you flat in TW.?

[jugears] 22/3/2020 14:46

300% in profit

[turvart] 22/3/2020 14:46

For those that are looking to invest money into the market I would suggest ITV and also Stage coach.

[gbh2] 22/3/2020 14:46

Under a quid tomorrow judging by today's news re 20% predicted House price drop.

[essentialinvestor] 22/3/2020 14:45

Just to clarify, I'm not suggesting how anyone invests, it's always a case of DYOR.

Made a comment on the cyclical nature of the industry. Luck with your holdings.
