WFL1970- Its in know more of a downward trend than any other share at the moment I bought some more today as I feel this down trend is temporary & very overdone as usual & will be buying more tomorrow if they fall, It will no doubt be a bumpy ride for a while but still see plenty of long term upside to these.

[wfl1970] 02/10/2019 19:51

A drop tomorrow can be expected and would be the norm ex div. That'll be quite a drop in two days if so.

Is this now gripped in a down trend...?

[gbh2] 02/10/2019 19:38

I picked up a few more today.

[jugears] 02/10/2019 11:01

With the ex dividend fall due I think I may be picking some more up in the next few days

Yet one has to wonder as to the quality of the Labour that would produce a House with a damp course two bricks below the level of the Drive !

'They were simple little things'.Obviously if the fridge freezer doesn't work you'd immediately want to move home.

Odds on they'll one day drop the Special & they're unlikely go to quarterly dividends.

[eeza] 30/9/2019 21:31

No.
Rather that is the problem with outsized special divs which totally skew the normal flow of buying.
High time they went to equal 1/4rtly divs.

[gbh2] 30/9/2019 12:53

Dividend clearly unattractive given the lack of buying interest.

"Trouble with companies like this they all have there own little pet companies that they like"

Errr

My PSN holding burst in to profit today. Bought too many and the slide was painful but it has "turned out nice again"

New note from Jeffries who state caution on TW and prefers other house builders.

[disneydonald] 27/9/2019 11:31

Wimps dragging their feet today ...

[jugears] 27/9/2019 10:15

Well at least low interest rates are here to stay & looks likely for the long term, Should keep the housing market moving whatever the outcome of Brexit.

[martyn9] 27/9/2019 09:15

Shrewd move gbh, i'm sure a slow increase in the share price next week for the dividend,then normal service will resume.

[gbh2] 27/9/2019 09:05

Couldn't resist this morning's drop so that's an extra 2K in the bag :))

[m4rtinu] 20/9/2019 11:08

:) I'll go for 2. But on 3 it seems DUP relenting a little too. And, as you say, £ been a little stronger recently, so pushes F100 down a bit.

[m4rtinu] 20/9/2019 09:32

Builders looking strong (so far) early on. Any ideas?

[woodhawk] 19/9/2019 17:59

Dead right on the divi, gbh2, 3.84p payable 8th November.

further to my previous posts on H2B...


SIMON LAMBERT: Help to Buy has boosted builders' profits and got them addicted to a subsidy - but will the government end up losing money too?

"The report said that Help to Buy may have lifted housebuilding by an estimated 14 per cent, but it didn’t make homes more affordable, or address other housing problems.

Meg Hillier, the committee chairwoman, said Help to Buy had ‘boosted the bottom line of house builders’ and will have tied up £29billion in cash by 2023."

"New build homes are sold as a premium product, but once someone moves in they lose the shine afforded from the promise of being the first to live there.

The committee put the new-build price premium at up to 20 per cent, while the ONS’s house price statistics show the average new build home costs £282,367 and the average second hand one £226,263.

In a market where house price rises are strong, losing the new-build premium when you sell up doesn’t matter so much, as property inflation helps you regain lost ground.

In a subdued property market, such as Britain’s current one that many forecast to persist, those selling their new-build within a few years may have to accept less than they paid for it.

This led Hillier to add: ‘The scheme exposes both the government and consumers to significant financial risks were house prices or interest rates to change. Better consumer protection needs to be built into similar schemes in the future.’

The committee said, if Help to Buy is to continue then its failings should be seriously considered and remedied.

The government also needs a plan to wean developers off their addiction to Help to Buy, unless we want to continue subsidising new home sales and big executive pay packets forever."
