I know your pain michael - well over two years stranded from 40-something.

It's also quite painful watching it carry on up when you have sold out...

[michael9000] 05/9/2012 16:45

Slytherin...exactly my point.

[slytherin] 03/9/2012 09:57

It's the Redrow buy-out offer that's driving excitement, clearly some funds are now seeing long-term growth and value

Telegraph today:

A fresh Coalition assault on "ludicrous" planning laws will make it harder for residents to object to new developments and encourage councils to allow building on greenbelt land, the Chancellor has said.

David Cameron and George Osborne insisted that more changes in planning rules were urgently needed as part of a package of reforms to restart growth in Britain's stagnant economy.

Rules allowing councils to authorise building on the green belt by redesignating other land will also be streamlined to encourage more building in areas given legal protection from development.

I think we can speed up planning – it is absolutely ludicrous that it takes years to get planning decisions in this country. You can get much faster decisions on the Continent, let alone in countries like China," he told BBC One's The Andrew Marr Show.

"This country, in the current economic environment, cannot afford to wait years for development."

Mr Osborne highlighted moves by councils including Cambridge to allow building on greenbelt land, which is then replaced with other land newly classified as part of the green belt. "I'd like to see more of that," he said.

Even though the controversial new National Planning Policy Framework was only approved by ministers months ago, they still say that the system is a significant obstacle to economic recovery.

In a newspaper article, the Prime Minister accused communities that object to housing of holding back the economy.

He wrote: "A key part of recovery is building the houses our people need, but a familiar cry goes up: 'Yes, we want more housing; but no to every development – and not in my back yard.'" He added: "The nations we're competing against don't stand for this kind of paralysis and neither must we."

Mr Cameron vowed to end the "dithering" and "paralysis" which is holding back Britain's economy.

New planning rules will be at the heart of an Economic Development Bill due to be published next month.

It will impose new time limits on appeals against planning permission, and tighten the criteria for referring a planning decision for judicial review.

The Treasury will soon unveil details of a plan to provide government guarantees for up to £10 billion of investment by housing associations and other developers. The guarantee complements a pledge to underwrite up to £40 billion of private investment in infrastructure projects.

The Government will also establish a "small business bank" to help small and medium enterprises get access to credit.

Possible planning reforms having an effect already?

[naed] 02/9/2012 20:32

thanks Dean

[palwing5] 02/9/2012 12:19

Could be useful?

"Mr Osborne's views come as David Cameron vowed to end the "dithering" and "paralysis" that holds back Britain's economy.

"A key part of recovery is building the houses our people need, but a familiar cry goes up: 'Yes, we want more housing; but no to every development – and not in my back yard'," he wrote in the Mail on Sunday.

"The nations we're competing against don't stand for this kind of paralysis and neither must we. Frankly, I am frustrated by the hoops you have to jump through to get anything done – and I come back to Parliament more determined than ever to cut through the dither that holds this country back."

Could be wrong, but you have to take a view, and I'm thinking that the lower and upper bands, which I had as low 40s and 50p (sell near 50, buy below 45) will move up a few pence soon to a higher level.


So why did I sell them all just below 50p? Muppet...

Buy back at?

[skinny] 21/8/2012 14:11

3 year+ high (52.40) today - ex dividend tomorrow.

[battue2] 17/8/2012 10:00

and also the stock opens the morning after the ex date at least the value of
the divi down. So selling first thing next day achieves nothing. But at .19p in our case it will probably trade through it very quickly.

[gbh2] 17/8/2012 09:04

but if you sell on or after the ex-dividend date, you will.

Which is why the share price often drops, due the institutions buying just before ex divi date and then selling when they pick it up.

[skinny] 17/8/2012 08:09

Amazing - bookmark this for future reference

Probably worth storing for all companies you hold.

Thanks for the info

A dividend-paying stock's ex-dividend date is very important to investors. In a nutshell, if you buy a dividend stock before the ex-dividend date, then you will receive the next upcoming dividend payment. If you purchase the stock on or after the ex-dividend date, you will not receive the dividend.

The converse of this rule also holds true -- if you sell a stock before the ex-dividend date, you will not receive the dividend, but if you sell on or after the ex-dividend date, you will.
