dive dive dive

[battue2] 05/12/2011 16:54

Maybe a trip down to 36p ish before xmas rally and another prod at 40p.
Trading statement mid- jan and 45p + is my view for what its worth.

[aphrodites] 05/12/2011 16:47

And me! :0)

[shaws37] 05/12/2011 16:06

Someone doesn't want this into the 40's, apart from us.

[sir rational] 05/12/2011 10:57

This'll turn up in a jiffy - look @ the FTSE100

[sir rational] 05/12/2011 09:07

Possibly exactly the opposite.

I do think FTSE100 @ 4000 is a distinct possibility.

No leadership in Europe merely guile.

Well you can be sure it will be for a while. But we have to start somewhere, it and it will take time to break through.

I keep looking back the spike in April last year - 46p+ on the board, and I thought we were away, so held on. Next stop was sub-22p. Can only get better, eh?

[homeboy35] 05/12/2011 08:40

Hm, I hope 40p isn't too much resistance

[sir rational] 05/12/2011 08:21

40p

Up the wall

[kazz] 05/12/2011 08:13

What, the kind who keeps making profits like a hound dog?

Presumably not crying all the time but laughing all the way to the bank

[stockmuncherpro] 02/12/2011 22:28

Aphro,

UK construction jobs rise as pace of growth slows
Growth in Britain's construction sector slowed last month but employment levels continued to pick up as the prospects for housebuilders started to improve in the wake of the Government's latest efforts to boost the industry.

Housebuilding ended five months of decline to return to growth, while civil engineering output was broadly unchanged. By Philip Aldrick, Economics Editor

The closely-watched Markit/CIPS purchasing managers' index survey, in which a reading above 50 represents expansion, fell to 52.3 from the five-month high of 53.9 in October. The decline was in line with forecasts.

The modest growth was driven by a rise in new business received in November, the survey revealed, as construction firms recorded an increase in new contract wins. Housebuilding ended five months of decline to return to growth, while civil engineering output was broadly unchanged.

The Government is making efforts to boost housebuilding by providing a degree of mortgage indemnity to buyers and improving the planning regime.

Offering some hope for jobs, the employment measure indicated the fastest pace of jobs growth in the sector since March 2008. The employment index increased to 52.2 from 50.3.

Weakness was evident, however, in civil engineering – which showed signs of shrinking. The index, which is largely dependent on government infrastructure procurements, fell by 0.6 points to 49.9, "consistent with falling government spending on infrastructure projects as part of the fiscal consolidation plan", Barclays Capital said.

It added: "The main surprise in today's data comes from the improvement in the residential construction measure. This was preceded by better-than-expected house prices and mortgage lending data earlier this week, altogether indicating some improvements in the UK housing market."

Very much so - and against a softening wider market this afternoon.

Eeeeh, mustn't grumble...
