Gleeson came out with good news re the lower priced sector sales and profits, so TW may well surprise some on Thursday.

[tlobs2] 07/1/2019 09:23

You would think that with the Directors buys towards the back end of last year along with those of the Chairmans wife that the news is likely to be reasonably positive.

Thats cleared the air then :-)

Back to TW and some informative ideas on post results Wednesday.

Well done on becoming a Fellow. Sadly it is wasted on the majority who visit this site.

Cautious housebuyers add to Taylor Wimpey woes - https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/business/cautious-housebuyers-add-to-taylor-wimpey-woes-xgktd59dcTaylor Wimpey is this week expected to point to more weakness in the housing market as the new year selling season kicks off...

[dr_smith] 06/1/2019 08:56

WBecki. I don't know if you have history with SJ but your name calling and snarling is uncalled for.

How the bloody hell can "Investment" be a typo when you meant to scribble "Unit"

Ridiculous in the extreme. You could admit you had a "brain fart" but typo doesn't cut it.

[steeplejack] 05/1/2019 20:47

A typo,an error,I meant to say unit trusts not investment trusts are open ended....but look at the pleasure I’ve given you as you seized the opportunity to lambast me.

In my earlier wafflings,I’m not aware that I ever mentioned investment trusts,I was only referencing unit trusts.Investment Trusts obviously don’t suffer “redemptions” and thus have more autonomy even to the extent of borrowing.Me,a twit?.....well,I know I’m a bloody fool to tour these bulletin boards but we all have our weaknesses.

Still no further with stopping the sale of new build houses as leasehold...
Government's Help to Buy still a major issue..


Thousands of homebuyers in 'leasehold limbo'

"The firm's analysis of Land Registry figures showed 26,024 new-build properties have been sold with leaseholds since the government’s pledge last December, 2,644 of which were houses.

Data from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government showed 5,949 leasehold homes were bought with assistance from the Help to Buy scheme in the first six months of this year- 1,340 were houses."

tiobs re your post 22360

Your post on Next buybacks is inaccurate. They actually abandoned their buybacks in January 2017 when the share price was around £40 and decided to go for special dividends instead. They started buying back again when the share was over £50. Share recently fell back to £40.so their buybacks did NOT support the share price in the way you suggested it did. Instead the share price fell back.

Quite right,investment trusts are open ended."

Hahaha indeed.
They are not open ended because they're closed end !!!!

If you were not zzz zzz sleeping at the wheeel so pretentiously you'd realise open ended funds are OEICS/Unit Trusts. Investment trusts are closed.

OEIC = OPEN ended investment comapny

Very basic.

Twit.

In other news from Maudlin Economics

"The Fed is raising rates and reversing its quantitative easing at the same time. They should be doing one or the other, not both. I think the global balance sheet reduction is especially harmful. I think/hope Jerome Powell will realize this in early 2019. If he doesn’t, or the rest of the FOMC disagrees with him, the year could get very rocky, very quickly

FOMC cannot withdraw the liquidity provided to the US financial system via QE without causing the system to implode. Chairman Jerome Powell needs to publicly state that the Bernanke-Yellen inflation in asset prices will entirely reverse as the FOMC tries to reduce “excess reserves” to pre-crisis levels. Regardless of whether the FOMC raises the Fed funds target rate or not, continuing to shrink bank reserves via QT implies a significant reduction in prices for stocks and real estate"

Real Estate implosion would be global I suspect.

"I was actually getting bored with my own monologue!"

Not half as bored as the rest of us are having to read such I'd wager!

[steeplejack] 04/1/2019 22:12

Quite right,investment trusts are open ended.I deleted a mention of open and close ended from an earlier post.I was actually getting bored with my own monologue!

[steeplejack] 04/1/2019 22:09

Quite possibly!.......but it won't be the first time.

That’s only part of it. More importantly they are driven not to lag their peers / index. They will happily sit on cash if they are in the middle of the pack performance wise rather than invest in a compelling opportunity. Getting a poor rating can smash a fund e.g Neil Woodford. Why be brave when you can be safe
