Lack of interest here for nearly 18 months!

Just possibly the housing market will be mildly encouraged by the budget ... judging by absence of negatives!

Opinions welcome, as this sector has never been my forte.

What do you make of over 70 million shares traded yesterday

IMHO HTB scheme extension should be taken as good news. Builders expecting it to end at some point, so finishing in 2023 gives plenty time to plan. Although the extension is only for first time buyers and is capped at 1.5 times average price first time buyers by region. Also good was formal acknowledgement that Letwin review cleared builders of land banking. Be interesting to see how the Market reacts tomorrow, glass half full or half empty ? May also help to accelerate sales to non first time buyers over next couple years before HTB stops for them

jug,i stand corrected, yes billion dollars!!

7 ran....house prices more than tripled between 1996 and 2007, they are currently up 15% over the last eleven years or an inflation adjusted fall of about 20%. You are making historical comparisons to a decade boom that saw prices rise 200% compared to a steady decline in real terms over the last decade. Halifax house price index..200 (1996) 630 (2007) 730 (now).

7ran, OMG LOL !!!!!!! What an absolute plonker you are, Must be school lunchtime again.

[jugears] 29/10/2018 13:46

martyn9, wasn't it more like £595 million , I think you are confusing £ & $

[7ran5ac710n] 29/10/2018 13:11

95% certainty level within next 18 months, once the post-Brexit bubble has popped...All IMHO... °|°

[martyn9] 29/10/2018 12:52

Bearing in mind they sold their canadian arm off for nearly a billion, that helped somewhat.

[jugears] 29/10/2018 12:44

Hernando2-1 billion was an incredible amount of debt the fact they managed to pay this debt off during one of the worst periods the uk has ever experienced is just shows what a good company this is, what ever happens short term Tw will be around for a long time yet & think the share price has a long way to go yet.

[hernando2] 29/10/2018 12:35

Back then they should have been made bankrupt, but it looked like the problem was so big the banks just kept them on as a zombie until things improved.

i almost bought at 12p , then a bit later someone I knew who worked there said it looks like things are going to be ok, that was at 30p, I was still too scared , but got in after the brexit vote.

They are in good shape i think.

[jugears] 29/10/2018 09:06

7ran etc - Obviously you are being effected by the drugs you took at the weekend ? Firstly Tw Dropped to around 4p in 2009 & also had debts of around 1 Billion, They are now nothing like the company they where then & not a chance of ever falling to 25p In my or your life time & very very doubtful they will fall to a pound either !!!!

[m4rtinu] 29/10/2018 08:57

Transaction - would you care to attach a probability to that forecast :)

[baracuda2] 29/10/2018 07:58

Well that last post is very informative,thanks

[7ran5ac710n] 29/10/2018 07:36

Builders build, builders crash.Waiting on 25p like 2009...

[jugears] 27/10/2018 15:20

Essential- Whilst I am not buying at the moment I am not selling either, the shares are only down due to uncertainty around Brexit & definitely nothing to do with any impending housing slump, Sales may be declining (Slightly) in London & the south east but this cannot be said for the rest off the country, unfortunately only information on this area seems to be important with a F@uck the rest of the country attitude for everywhere else, I am expecting a very promising update from Tw. I beleive we will see Tw shares going back up shortly in line with the rest of the uk stock market,But how high this will go depends on how Brexit goes. Good news & I would expect these to rise back to nearer £2 very quickly. At the moment I think that most of the bad news is built in to the share price & doubt that we will see these near the £1 that some are talking about !

[gbh2] 26/10/2018 12:10

I sold out jut about 153p - my cash is making money elsewhere for the time being.

[essentialinvestor] 26/10/2018 11:30

Anyone brave and buying?.

[fangorn2] 26/10/2018 11:28

FANG stocks taking a pasting.

About time. Massively overvalued.

[baracuda2] 26/10/2018 11:06

Not sure if I should buy some more at this price. The drop seems totally over done!

[steeplejack] 26/10/2018 09:37

The most recent rises on Wall Street were 'anaemic' relying on further advances in the prices of a narrow range of stocks,most notably Amazon.After hours,Amazon was marked down over 7% on figures that undershot expectations.Nonetheless,Amazon are still up some 65% for the year.

[marksp2011] 26/10/2018 07:32

Guys,

CoC is rising and so equity valuations fall.

The question is how far CoC will rise, interest rate rise and what the risk premium is held to be for holding stocks over bonds.

I think the sale is overdone but, it is going to take a while for all of this to work through,
