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.

Don't upset them now jimmy....slowly slowly catchy monkey.,.

I've been slowly slowly catching this monkey for 2 years !!!.As Joe Pesci said in Casino " "ithink i want my money back"

Got to be careful, according to the charts has never made it above 43-44p tomorrow could be a decision day.

I hate to shatter your illusion, but ....

Come on skinny get real......2007-2008 long time to go before we see those days again.,.

Wonder if this has run out of cement....down today.,.

Doesn't seem to want to limp over 45 does it ?

Do you think it has legs to go again on monday or is this as far as it goes for now.,.

Well the expected 80% increase in operating profit has helped so i wouldnt be surprised if we do get over the 45p mark ,just have to wait and see.

To be honest - its had a 15% rise this year so far - so a bit of retracement should be expected - just not for too long :-)

Deutsche Bank retains its buy rating TP 55.50p

Goldman Sachs retains its buy rating TP 58.00p

anything above 45p will do.,.

41p holding and climbing back again +42......phew.,.

I'd quite like 55 after all the pain ,it would have been worth the wait ,can't see it anytime soon .

31 Jan: TW. Investec Securities: Buy - TP: 52.00p

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.
