RE: Final dividend29 Dec 2020 17:26
When the pandemic set in, the firms declared that their dividend would be postponed or cancelled. Slowly but surely, construction work recommenced in late spring and early summer.
All the housebuilders that suspended payouts have either resumed paying dividends or announced their intention to recommence paying them.
Despite some economic uncertainty the housebuilding sector is in good shape, and is the main sector which can get this country out of recession. It is said that around forty other industries are linked to this sector. The government has to support this sector, they have no other choice IMO.
