Krusty & Dimi thank you both for your advice I am going to stick with TW.
18 million shares traded at 09:46 today. Is that a buy?
Why is L.S.E. 1 hour behind real time during the last few afternoons trading?
It's the LSE algorithms balancing the STEPS system.
Anybody notice those numerous small value sells after 13.00 today, what are they all about. Were there really ten separate sells of one share and there are others too or am I being unduly sceptical.
This stocks a bargain in this price range well worth topping up
Thanks Ben, this is much appreciated as always. You're right, it will be very interesting to see potential buyer's reaction to the half-point rate rise. Let's hope it's not too damaging, especially as there's worse to come.
Hi All
This will be a very interesting period of time, I will keep you posted if anything changes on the building front.
East mids I hope tradesmen from other areas can post any changes!
Cheers in advance Ben

Yes I get that dimi, I don't disagree with anything you've said. However, TW had become such a large part of my portfolio that, even free running as it is, it made sense to diversify. I will always hold the bulk of the housebuilder portion of my portfolio in TW, but spreading the risk a little just seemed like the logical thing to do. Valuations are so low currently it's not inconceivable that private equity could swoop on one of the major players and who knows which it might be? So I guess it's a personal thing, given my situation. Each to their own & all that.
Krusty, Paul and I were discussing this about a month ago.
I prefer TW to Persimmon. PSN has a dividend of 13% but a Payout ratio of 96%, i.e. it's unsustainable unless they borrow to pay it which will benefit shareholders only short term. If it get's cut, let's say in half to make it sustainable the share price will tank more than 7%. Probably 10% at least. I've seen that many times, for example with Inmarsat. You lose half your divi and get a hit in the share price, double whammy!
TW's dividend is smaller but sustainable, you get what you pay for!
FTSE 100 expected to make a lacklustre start to trading on Thursday with spread betting companies calling the lead index up around 7 points
Hi Nomad1, I don't have that many but what I have are free carried with cash in the bank. I've used some of my profits to invest in PSN and BDEV, the former for the higher dividend and the latter because I expect them to start paying higher dividends based on their commitment to (sensibly) reduce the level of dividend cover. I still think TW represents a good investment case at this level though, with the yield now over 7% even after today's rally, so I'm not sure why you are struggling? With 34,000 shares @ 39p each you've effectively got an investment of c. £13k paying dividends of over £3k, or nearly 25%. That doesn't sound too painful.
Since 2009 I have owned 34,000 TW. shares which ended up costing me 39p each.
Recently I started getting my UK pension but find myself struggling a bit with the TW. dividend.
I have been thinking of selling up and buying PSN because as you know the dividend is higher, and the share price has dropped more than TW. this year. Any solid advice would be appreciated.
A firmer open Wall Street helped the FTSE 100 consolidate its early afternoon gains, though sentiment could turn on a sixpence/dime given the unfolding drama around Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan
PCla yes it does, my sincere apologies! We'll get the same again in 6 months, so I guess you could argue 275,000 would be enough? I'm clutching at straws though, it's a fair cop.
I applaud TW for making the payments though. It's good to look after your staff when times are hard, but at the same time it's not part of their basic pay and therefore won't add to ongoing costs.

Doesn’t 550,000 shares at a increase of 0.18p per share come to £990.00 which is £10.00 shy of the £1,000
PCla I don't think basic maths is your strong point. Third time lucky?
Price has risen the 5% i was expecting - I believe it should go higher but investors are worried about the base rate decision tomorrow and imv that worry is overdone.
I've held Wimps for 4 years and even after reinvesting all the 'generous' divis, I'm still well down. This isn't quite my top dog share, but it's up there with my worst FTSE 100 buys of all time. Wimps could strike gold and the market cap still wouldn't budge. After the initial euphoria, expect it to return to sub-120.
And before anyone asks, I'm talking it down because talking it up has never done any good.
Meant over 550,000 shares
