Thin trading? 76m so far today. Extremely high for tw. Hardly thin.

Thin trading.The markets are full of fear at the moment.
Usually a pretty good time to start buying.
The sell off looks rather over done to me.I am accumulating on a 12 month view.
Walking around up and down the aisles and started filling up my stockmarket supermarket trolley today.
Buy some, watch and add more down the road.Cost averaging smooths out the bumps.

The fact that BDEV is in the same boat means that the sector is just out of favour, not that there is a problem with TW. Personally I'm glad of the buying oportunity again, but I wouldn't be too worried if I'd been holding already.

hi very tempted by the value that appears to be on offer here.

BUT;

What do folk think is the perception that is leading to shareprice decline when we have a very healthy housing market at the moment (certainly in London at any rate)

Where's is everyone, surely all not lost their nerve, sold & run to the hills? Easy money here for any souls brave enough to go long!

16,000,000 @29.1

[scars] 08/6/2010 13:02

no need for even a big buyer, with the amount of shares hoovered up today they could sell it right back up to the opening price.

Easy money...

[smurfy2001] 08/6/2010 12:52

RSI way oversold, levels not seen this year.

[bordersboy] 08/6/2010 12:51

so, big buyer wants to stake build to they short it to oblivion first then pile in long - or the drop is that the company is bust ( doubtful)

[spennysimmo] 08/6/2010 12:49

smurfy, I don't know but unusually high today.

[scars] 08/6/2010 12:45

long term this has to be a good level to buy, i don't see this getting as bad as early 2009 so 20 imo is the absolute bottom, thats still another 30% but with this volatility it could go anywhere.

[smurfy2001] 08/6/2010 12:37

spennysimmo - stake building???

[ny boy] 08/6/2010 12:35

took IG long £50pt @ 28.61 seems daft at these levels?

[newkid] 08/6/2010 12:35

I think we have a mass sell off across the board due to the future CGT rules. This fact has been picked up by the hedges and is being shorted to death again.
1 poss is I think we will see the return of taper relief.

Careful. Where did you get 1.5 million properties in Spain unsold from.

[jimmyjagger] 08/6/2010 12:30

No serious support until 20 here imho, although will take its sweet time getting there with plenty of bumps on the way down

[spennysimmo] 08/6/2010 12:29

The thing that is a little strange today is volume. Virtually all housebuilders are currently down between 5% and 6% but tw have traded a whopping 42m so far compared to bdev where 5m have been traded. I wonder why such high volume today.

[jugears] 08/6/2010 12:26

I have been Buying All the way down from 45 & have no plans to sell, This is an excellent recovery stock & for now will continue to buy, I have been investing in stock & shares for 30 years ,& Imho it is virtually impossible to pick the right time to buy a particular share, Nearly every one that I have bought have fallen after I bought them, But 95% of those shares have in the long term made me a very substantial profit. I really can't understand people that buy shares with out being confident that it will make a good return at some point,most people on this Board seem to have a very short term view, Start looking at 12/18 months ahead and where do you honestly beleive the share price will be. If you honestly dont think it will be a lot higher then get out now .As for me I see this contributing very nicely to my retirement plans in 10 years time.

[knowing] 08/6/2010 12:20

That was at 38p

[ny boy] 08/6/2010 12:18

What is TW's debt like?

[jab118] 08/6/2010 12:12

gcom2, and think you might be out really soon, hope you have got a stop loss set... As you will probably be needing it...;-)

[gill17] 08/6/2010 12:12

I haven't traded TW for a long time as they haven't been very exciting to be honest, but I'm back in at this price as it would be silly not to.

[abu azaan] 08/6/2010 12:11

its not prices that will drive this but sales which are on the up

[gcom2] 08/6/2010 12:09

i'm in :))))))
20k

[careful] 08/6/2010 12:06

how many houses are tw. selling.
we know there are 1.6m unsold properties in spain.
no hope there.

UK house prices are still way above the 3-4 times av earnings level.
they refuse to fall, unlike our shares.
we can sell shares at the press of a button.

if houses were sold this way, a 'correct' market, we would soon see how much they were worth.
way below todays prices.
like shares we could go back 10 years to get a more accurate price.
