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.

Harry you don't usually exagerate, it'll drop back to 44p where i started.,.

not sure if it was right, but set limit sell at 53p yesterday as i was away from comp. which triggered so made good profit.,.

Through the 53p barrier midnight, looks like I sold bdev and Tw too early.,.

Usualy a short term tip SP.......

UK Chart of the Day: 7 September 2012

Chart of the day: Taylor renewing the long-term price uptrend...
The housebuilding sector appears to be making a strong comeback.

Taylor Wimpey, which traded as low as 6.4p during the financial crisis, currently changes hands at 56p. More interestingly, it is developing a bullish chart.



(1) Prices broke the key resistance at 52.5p yesterday and closed at new 52-week highs. This renewed the long-term price uptrend decisively. (2) Taylor's relative strength is making new highs (3) The stock is trading above the long-term mean.

Taken together, I suspect the stock has the potential to rally to 60p. Stay overweight; stop at 50p.

Edited wrong thread.
