Looking at above charts, all of these housebuilders have been hit today. Was it something DC said? Or was predicted to say. From what I understand, he wants houses to buy rather than buy-to-let? Wants to increase supply to bring price down for first time buyers.

I'm waiting for the next set of results and simply commenting on the degree of manipulation.

[homeboy35] 07/10/2015 15:58

You can't expect the share price just to go up and up and up.

I am only holding a quarter of my max holding now.

Treading water now!

[gbh2] 05/10/2015 12:41

And still we flounder beneath 200p !

[gbh2] 30/9/2015 10:26

Price is being manipulated by low cost trading on small volume, it's time they got their finger out and consolidated the number of shares in circulation !

The problem is Brokers need to treat construction and house building as 2 completely different industries which they are. Also you can't Knock the whole construction industry down just because one of Millions of suppliers up & down the country isn't going to meet its forcasts, The first thing I learnt When I started to invest in shares & from running my own company for over thirty years is that it is absolutely impossible to predict future earnings know two years are ever the same, Some years profits are good & some years they are not, what is important is that you make a profit & survive in business.

Obviously connected to Wolseley, Although not sure how this would effect TW as they sources most of there materials direct rather than through the likes of Wolseley & why the dramatics when underlying profits are still increasing even if it is only 4% & not 6%.Over done to create buying opportunity in my opinion

Couldn't resist a small top up at 193.60 on the bell.

[gbh2] 29/9/2015 15:49

No idea, other than that last half penny drop was probably my fault, I bought a few at 195.7 !

[beercapafn] 29/9/2015 15:47

gbh2... Yep.. Any clue as to why ?

[gbh2] 29/9/2015 15:37

It seems to be sector wide but TW certainly leading the way down atm!

[beercapafn] 29/9/2015 14:18

Now off 3.1% market only off 0.4%.

All the builders off.2,5% +

So assume an asset class downgrade.

[beercapafn] 29/9/2015 13:45

Any reason for the drop today. ?

[gbh2] 28/9/2015 14:40

It's all about EPS, past present & future, there's no way they're going to double the profit margin they were achieving pre 2008, at least not in this decade.

I would add, number of shares IS important, BUT earnings PER share is what sets the price, that is rising.

I agree £ 5.00 is feasible, but over what time scale. ?

[martyn9] 28/9/2015 10:10

There is no reason why these shares can't hit £5 per share again!! irrelevant as to amount of shares in circulation,profits the key word.

[rikaughty] 27/9/2015 23:06

Correct. £2.50 is my destination station.

[gbh2] 26/9/2015 22:12

Double the number of shares in circulation likely to impede that hope!

[shaf200] 26/9/2015 12:05

Dont see why this can't get to the glory days of 500p+...

beercapafn - info on the real Gerd Muller here:

homeboy.. Don't understand that post. !!

Amazing to look at the chart from the late 80s. Looking at that huge spike up in 2007 to over £5 and then the fall to almost nothing a year later.

Looks close to a high since around 2008 again and it has been a great investment.

The market remains fixated on interest rates rising but everyone and their dog should know by now they won't go up much.

Still look good to me with political pressure rising on who can build the most houses.
