Oh dear, two large companies combine and, like an intergalactic "event" only negative matter remains....a case of 1 + 1 = 0.2

Let me say - sp a year ago was 10x today's - so this business has earned its place in the 90% club....and maybe more to come, as they will need to go overseas for cash, if the UK is dry.

I doubt there is a UK Builder with enough dosh to bail-out this dullard. They all thought they could expand until the UK burst with immigrants - yet they consistently went for pricier properties and projects where ( even now), there is some doubt whether there are enough jobs to support new-build developments.

EDIT ( Nov 2015 ) - Seven years on and we're at 183p - so anyone that bought at the all-time Low has done very well - but the Market was fearful and that meant few were Buying. 2009/2010 averaged about 40p - that was a good time if you had the LT cash.
With the rise and yield-multiplier effect, this is looking like Buying it was "probably" inspired.... but it has not regained that earlier Value - which will surely take a lot longer.

2 Feb: TW. Citigroup Neutral TP upped from 44p to 45p but downgraded.

Just to cheer you up midknight.

Deutsche Bank retains its Buy TP 55.50

Like fishing for that 45p pike and getting teased with a 43.5p Roach. will change the bait and sit a little longer....... not sure if I can wait for the biggy 54p to swim by.....

Get ready for your 45p Balerboy should be next week if the market holds up ..

2 year+ highs today.

Nice ,i'm tempted to keep mine, in profit now.

Same here jimmy, wonder how far it will go.,.

Just checked my ISA and I'm 97.99% up on the last of these that I have.

Maybe 50p and i'll Bale out (excuse the pun) .

I'd be very happy with that too.,.

12 month high today. 48.97p.

still lookin good 50p this week???? I wonder.,.

Certainly wondering if this is running out of steam, vol, dropping.,.

There is a snippet in the 3I lunchtime mail shot.

Thanks skinners, will hold a bit longer.,,.

,

knocking on 50p door......do i sell do i hold......hhhmmmmmmm

BB I'm wanting 53 lol come on you T A and chartist is 50 a resistance point

Baler, have sold between 50 and 52 in the
past and never regretted it, as 53 seems to be or
has been a major hurdle.
Will this time be different?
According to Sir John Templeton, one of the all-time
great investing gurus,
'This time is different' are among the most costly
four words in marketing history.

A bird in the hand...eh!

Thanks midnight, think if we hit 50ish will be happy, not much profit but can use funds else where......gkp or afr or xel I think.
Panic......not sure gl
