I suspect that the Chairman's wife does not know she owns Wimps, I guess that it is just effecient allocation of assets between husband and wife, to make best use of their respective tax allowances etc. Notwithstanding, the Chairman will know the true situation re Wimps performance and prospects, and I am also sure he understands that it is the Market that sets the share price and the two are not necessarily linked. I would still take some reassurance from his smallish purchase.

Being shorted to hell but they have to close at some point,whatever stage that may be??

[omg48] 05/8/2019 09:04

Who was saying the Chairmans wifes' recent purchase was done so based on 'sound advice' from her husband...?!

Be careful who's advice you take...

Carney and the IMF have covered up the real growth situation before the Brexit vote. The headline GDP figure is often not accurate - they know that but keep quiet, cos it suits. Most of the growth before 2016 was caused simply by population increase due to mass migration. There was little real GDP growth at all, in fact real (not headline) GDP growth from 2008-2016 averaged just 0.2% pa and TOTAL GDP growth per capita over all that period was a pathetic 0.9%. In fact in the one year after the Brexit vote GDP growth per capita was a full 1%. You would expect the Govt to cover up and paint a rosy picture. but not so called independent people/organisations - unless they have an axe to grind (like being pro EU). A cynic would also say that the Govt are 100% aware that population increase pushes up the headline GDP figure and so migration suits them as it then gives the impression of growth within the economy.
Incidentally the UK population has risen by 4.5m in the decade 2008-18 according to Gov figures. This rise is also the real cause of the housing crisis, but again you are lied to by those in power. Imagine, not a single MP or overpaid media person, (think Andrew Marr etc) seems aware of the fundamental basis of a capitalist economy.... supply and demand. They all choose to ignore the demand side of the equation and thus the public are conned again.

UK stocks likely down again generally as Asia down overnight on the US tariffs.

Simples, it's the BoE's job to pull necessary monetary levers to maintain inflation within particular range. Brexit, with or without a deal, is an act of self harm which will negatively impact those inflation targets ... its their job to inform respective agencies and stakeholders of these impending negative consequences ...

As for Rees Mogg Esq, and Odey Esq, can't help feeling its a case of the haves preaching to the have nots ...

Carney is quite entitled to his opinion, but the BOE has always been apolitical. He should make representations to the Gov but keep his mouth firmly shut in public.
He flapped his mouth, loudly, following the Ref result about how the UK would go into immediate recession & to hell in a handcart - how that erudite observation work out?
Employment never been stronger, economy booming - despite Carney's desperate rhetoric.

EEza
Brexit is the biggest economic "change" in 30 years. Why on earth would the BoE be silent it is supposed to be independent.

[eeza] 02/8/2019 23:42

Carney doing more damage here than Trump. BOE has always stayed out of Politics but Carney finds it impossible to control his tongue.
He is almost desperate to prove he is right.

[jugears] 02/8/2019 18:27

Lots of shares cheap at moment very good time to buy they will all recover at some point. Brexit is the biggest worry to most people but it won't be as bad as expected these things never are,unfortunately Carney is a ticking time bomb waiting to go off,knows f__k all if you ask me.

[turvart] 02/8/2019 17:29

Jugears, who knows with trump, but one thing he ain’t is stupid.
I see Lloy looking cheap mate. I was going to top up here today but couldn’t resist the price of Rio.

[gbh2] 02/8/2019 17:23

Cash going elsewhere so missed today's opportunity.

[jugears] 02/8/2019 17:13

Turvart, had the game ever started or is it about to start ?

[turvart] 02/8/2019 16:48

Marksp2011,
Lol I was thinking the same, he must be trading the markets, I bet he thinks I’ll go short now, I’ll tweet about the tariffs lol, he certainly knows how to make money I’ll give him that!

[fizzypop] 02/8/2019 16:16

Another significant top up at £1.55 ... when fear rules etc.

[tradejunkie2] 02/8/2019 16:11

Is it game over for the housing market as not many people moving now?

[marksp2011] 02/8/2019 16:07

I seem to have lost about UKP 16k today. Can someone close that fools twitter account

[jugears] 02/8/2019 14:35

That bbc news artical was 9 weeks ago ? House prices Falling, you mean in the greedy south & London not anywhere else, anyway all bad news is great for me means more buying opportunity for my pension fund, None of above will last long, Just not enough houses being built & any down trend is just going to make the next housing boom last twice as long. I will be keeping these until they are at least �3.00 I,m in know hurry to sell, I doubt Tw will go bust or come anywhere near to it so short term concerns don't bother me, It may get rid of some of the smaller house builders but that's life I'm afraid, Indeed a down turn has already wiped out one of my competitors last week, Just shows how near to the brink some companies run. Down turn, Recession, Brexit I will still be in business & so will Tw & when its all over we will bigger & better than before.

I was interested in how much the redress of leasehold scandal will cost...
I see the provision for leasehold redress was £9m during the period and £9m post period...

Not convinced that is enough?

Help2Buy is also due to come to an end...

Jugears,

"At the moment I see no reason why Tw are falling other than the uncertainty about Brexit which will eventually get sorted out."


Apart from Brexit, house prices falling, Leasehold scandal and general market being volatile atm.... Woodford is a forced seller...

He holds several house builders...

I think still further to fall...

[jugears] 02/8/2019 13:29

Just like last year the share price being manipulated down & just like last year they will go back up !

[battue2] 02/8/2019 13:27

tlobs2 The Chairman's wife also sold 500,000 shares 10 days before they went exdiv for 10p last year and that turned out to be a good call too.

[eeza] 02/8/2019 12:24

Well the Market has never liked the Wimp. BDEV off 1%, the Wimp off 2.5%.

The Wimp goes up half x BDEV and down double x BDEV.
