recommended by the fleet street group,it looks promising!

I agree Stockdog, an excellent long-term investment with the potential for bids along the way. Shame more investors on the BBs aren't interested but then it's not a potential 10-bagger, blue-sky, share-of-a-lifetime opportunity!

Not been on this thread for an awfully long time! SP has taken a hit the last couple of months but encouraging signs at the moment. Has some good momentum building up and even today's poor figures from McCarthy & Stone didn't stop it ticking up again. Good times could be now.

Well it's flying now!!!

...Higher and higher!!!

Wow! Up over 4% today and broken its highs. Where to now I wonder?!!

a bid maybe??? one can hope.

Well it's long been a prime candidate if the sector really consolidated which is another reason for holding the shares.

Figures in line with previous revised expectations, and a 25% rise in the annual dividend. Not a bad effort in the current climate. Anyone else chosen Bovis as a home for their money or am I the sole tenant?

Up 4.5% today and smashed through the 900p mark. Now that's what I call flying!

Well done Queen1 - I got out of these as it went down the last dip - what you might call a tad early. Oh well, I didn't lose money on them. Sigh!

Thanks stockdog. At the current price I've doubled my money so am debating whether to take some profits or stay in for the increasing dividends and potential take-over premium.

Q
It's still a good yield and promised to grow 25% pa until it hits 5% (of what no longer sure!), but I suspect there will be a retracement of some magnitude at some point, especially if the wider market cools from its current heady heights. No blame would attach to bank profits IMHO - at least some, say 50% leaving the rest in for a free ride and having the fun of finding a new home for the other half.

WDIK - good luck.

SD - That's exactly what I did this afternoon!!!

Very grown-up!

Well there's got to be one part of my life where sensible rules :-)

now all you need is a stop-loss on SEY!

But surely SEY will be 1 by Christmas?!!!!

so - you won't be stopped out then will you - but just in case the unexpected happens you'll be protected. Not saying set up an automatic one, they get triggered by freak intraday events too often - but have one in mind and stick to it. If you set it tight enough you can buy back in lower if the worst happens.

Cheers. Actually Shares Mag has SEY at 76p in three years according to analyst predictions so that will do me.

very nice too - see you there
