House prices are moving up because people are taking advantage of Help to Buy for 2nd homes and Stamp Duty Hol. Both these end in 5 months, 31st March 2021.

Sunshine, uncertainty is priced in to this. Once it becomes clear what the divi is going to be, which would be close to 12% at these levels if the previous special is introduced, I dont think the price will drop from here by the divi value. As always there will be a rise into any ex dividend payment date from here.
If they re-introduce as before, I for one will be loading up on these at anything under 1.50. Have loads at these prices as it is but don't want more until things are a little more certain. ( Otherwise I would probably be buying more now)

I've had some ludicrous offers for our Holiday home in the Keswick, the folk with money are pushing prices up, with Interest rates the lowest they've been in decades now is the time to Buy :)

So my claim of an undercover lockdown has now been confirmed in the papers. They're calling it "back door" lockdown. Yet the ftse rises. More bad news the better in today's markets.

It’s in the last interim accounts and supporting ppt.

hxxps://www.taylorwimpey.co.uk/corporate/investors/results-and-reports

Specifically pg 21 of half year report, and also in supporting text, and call recording.

I'd like to see the link for that disney, not because I don't believe you I'd just like to see the context?

[doyden] 19/10/2020 15:16

Hang on. You said that in the Spring. It didn't happen. You also said last week that it would be 90p by last Friday. It didn't happen. I'll take anything you say with a very, very large pinch of salt!

Wimps have confirmed it is their intention to pay a final dividend (due May 2021). They will be pressured to reconfirm this intention, or not, at the November trading update by analysts on the update call.

They have also confirmed they will review the return of special dividends for 2022 at 2021 half year (interims) July 2021, as they have previously done.

It is a fair bet that normal dividend payment will reflect the currrent dividend policy (based on net assets with a minimum). That should be similar to the last interim of 3.8p, or slightly
higher to reflect current slight increase in net assets.

Of course if the world ends, or we return to extended national lockdown again that may change.

1carus, That would be nice, but it's not usual for a company to make Dividend announcements other than at results, however we can hope :)

[sunshine today] 19/10/2020 14:29

The divi ( if paid ) will be 100% discounted in the share price,on the day.

The market is looking beyond the next few months.

[1carus] 19/10/2020 14:27

gbh2, you're not wrong, but then neither I am! I suspect they will set out their intension, even if it is just to say dividends resume next year as per usual.

[gbh2] 19/10/2020 14:25

1carus, just an update due between now a Feb 2021 Results so I doubt we will hear much a Dividends until Feb 21 at best. I'll keep taking advantage of the dips until then :)

2008 meltdown coming 5 p lows imminent

[1carus] 19/10/2020 12:45

cometh the dividend, cometh the share price. Simples.

[sunshine today] 19/10/2020 11:42

The market says it all, house prices up 5% yet the builders, are down.

[gaygay3] 19/10/2020 11:40

Good post doydon no reply from bricky I wonder why

[cl0ckw0rk0range] 19/10/2020 08:43

And the bashers rear their ugly heads with whatever fake news they have been able to trawl up over the course of the weekend.Yawn.

[maxplus2] 18/10/2020 22:51

Are you sure about this? I asked for a quote and they require 20% deposit

[maxplus2] 18/10/2020 22:49

What about negative rate? I thi k mortgage rates are to stay low

[maxplus2] 18/10/2020 22:47

I thought the number of mortgage applications have gone up due to stamp duty holiday. Where is this rhetoric coming from?

[activeservo] 18/10/2020 20:18

So the vaccine news conjured up today is just to soften the impending three week lockdown.(A bit better than promising wind farms in ten years time...)

I think Help to Buy loans will become toxic... Adding to the possibility of another financial crisis..


"Now home buyers need to stump up 40 per cent deposits to get a mortgage as economic devastation from coronavirus threatens a new credit crunch"


"And the number of mortgages has fallen from 5,222 in March to 2,300 now, according to the financial data provider Moneyfacts.

The Bank of England survey shows lenders expect them to fall again over the next few months and defaults are also expected to rise at their fastest rate since the financial crisis."
