House prices should remain well underpinned for the significant future given annual Net migration. That's before indigenous births amongst the British populace.

I don't see Demand falling anytime soon...so companies such as TW should do fine.

Best tolerated with the Filter in place :))

Tradejunkie do us all a favour and go back to your colouring books.


Negative @rseholes like you need to get a life.

[clarky5150] 08/11/2018 08:54

Ah TradeMunkie2. Just checked out your profile summary of recent posts. I suggest everyone do the same before they try and have a rational discussion with you.
It appears you offer the same sage like musings to a vast variety of boards. I may be wide of the mark here but I have a sneaky feeling you just like to spout negativity to wind up genuine investors.
Thanks, but no thanks... Filtered.

Dividend payments tomorrow and update on Tuesday.

Do you think i'm joking?

Once the recession takes play it's going to be incredible.

gbh2 - you can cover your eyes but the reality is going to bite you.

[jugears] 07/11/2018 20:35

gbh2- I am not sure that we need to worry that Tw or psn will be going bust in the distant future.

"I don't believe that anyone would refuse a bonus like that if it was offered to them"

I walked out on a contract because I was sick when hearing the Directors tell staff that cut backs were required for them to achieve between 1 & 4% increase yet the following day the same directors were sat around the same table discussing increase of between 15 and 40% to their own salaries with increases to the annual Bonuses of 20%.
I walked out during the meeting and later told the CEO that he and his board were an absolute disgrace.

I gave them the keys to the company car and sent for an associate to pick me up & drive me back to Yorkshire that evening. I never went back in spite of requests to discuss the 3 months contractual pay that they owed me.

The company folded three years later due to debt problems.

My experience in business is if you offer the right reward it brings results which arguably for PSN it has.Know doubt when the offer was made know one really thought there targets would be met, there are always two sides to every story.May be he deserved his bonus, may be he didn't, what I do know is so called experts predicting the future saying that house prices will fall if we leave the EU with no deal, how the Fu@k do they know?? no one knows whats going to happen because the crystal ball has not been invented yet, now IMHO these are the people earning big money that should not be paid there vast wages, It would be nice if these so called experts stopped thinking & playing with the charts & graphs & actually got on & did something that would benefit the uk, IMHO the sooner we leave the sooner business will get back to normal.

There's naysayers on every thread, so I'd be more surprised if RDW didn't have one.

[wfl1970] 07/11/2018 13:50

Not only the PSN Chief going... RDW chief too.

Here's a post from the RDW BB on 19/10/18!

"Short sellers destroying builders, just amazed these were not getting hammered long before now, cheap nasty houses in cheap nasty places, Redrow decimated in last recession and same will happen this time, heading back to a couple of quid, Morgan will be out soon, most of the main players getting out, liquidating their holdings. Interesting Crest bosses sold out in the Spring just before it all went south, timing. UK a brexit basket case heading for the bricks, no pun intended."

They were right about Morgan!

[gbh2] 07/11/2018 12:39

Wait for tomorrow WFL :)

[clarky5150] 07/11/2018 12:08

PSNs statement is very positive in its wording. I hope TW do something similar when the time comes. I especially like this closing paragraph. Similar sentiment from other builders would help to stem the death of a thousand cuts that the ongoing playground spat known as Brexit is inflicting.


'Persimmon is in a very strong position for the future and whilst we are mindful that there is uncertainty associated with the UK's withdrawal from the EU, the Company's investment over recent years in a high quality landbank provides a sustainable long-term platform for each of our 31 regional businesses and enables the Group to be very selective with future investments. By adopting this position the Group has acquired over 4,750 new plots of land, and spent over GBP180 million, including payment of deferred land creditors, during the period. Of the replacement land acquired so far this year 23% has been converted from the Group's strategic land holdings.'

It'll have to go some for your end day target of 170 gbh.

A case of 'curse of the commentator'!

[tlobs2] 07/11/2018 10:12

I quite like this in the Persimmon RNS .....

Persimmon said in a separate statement that sales in the period since it reported half-year results on 21 August have been 3% ahead of last year's strong comparatives. The group said it is now fully sold up for the current year and has around £987m of forward sales reserves beyond 2018, up 9% on this time last year.

"Resilient consumer confidence and continued mortgage lender support have provided positive market conditions, with mortgage approvals for the third quarter ticking up from levels seen in the first two quarters of the year."

Not a thought I embrace but I do believe Greed at the Top will tip the balance because there's less & less left in company profits to pay decent wages to those that actually work for a living.

[omg48] 07/11/2018 09:46

GBH You normally cheer me up but please dont mention Corbyn in power. It makes me suicidal.

[gbh2] 07/11/2018 09:19

Greed at Board Level is endemic in the Large Companies and it gets worse every year Fairburn being a prime example and ONE of the reasons we may one day see the likes of Corbyn in power !

[stewart64] 07/11/2018 09:08

Persimmon issue probably helping builders' shares today. Not acceptable to pay 75m bonus at a time when the industry is making money for the fun of it and a chimp in charge would do nearly as well.

[gbh2] 07/11/2018 07:59

Close above 170p today :)
