Well it looks like the big move up was a head fake by the MM to allow someone to get out. Mediclinic results (big loss) this morning have really put the tin hat on the chances of them making another approach.

Its the Chinese involvement that makes this tricky as they will drive the rates down overall as they are often supported by their government to establish market share. They get away with it as no one will touch them, even Trump is backing down!

Yep ........very suspicious. SP carefully managed rise by the MM. This is why retail investors are at such a big disadvantage unfortunately.

I think it was the 19 guidance and ongoing margin squeeze that did the most damage. Institutions invested for its growth prospects (hence higher P/E) which they expected to be better than "high single-digits." That went down like a lead balloon. Hard to say how this will go could be more volatility before it finds a base.

a large �2m trade published at 5:06pm. Standard Life is off loading but someones hoovering them up big time.

Ever since upbeat Capital Markets day this has been on a great run, I think we can assume the 9th Nov' trading update is going to be a good one?! With 50% of earnings coming from the continent (economically on the up) and the weak � ........bodes well I think.

It's Morgan (RDW) calling the top of the market with large placing?

but think market is looking at total completions which is broadly flat therefore puts a ? on any further growth.

Someone is sitting on 4m shares at £12 as soon as the market turns down again we know sadly where this will end up before long.

"If only we knew...." going by the price action today.......someone clearly did!!!!!

Lol.....................what a bunch of crooks! How the hell do they get away with things like this!!! Not only Google getting away with murder.

Thank god I'm not in here at the mo. What a nerve Dunkerton!!! Blown through all the support levels.

that by Liberum, the day before the 1/2 year results. "The fashion retailer was downgraded to Hold from Buy by Liberum, which said any positive surprises from its upcoming interim results were unlikely." So do they know something? Which is bad if they do................if not why mention it the day before!!! Makes you wonder what their motives are? Before today it had been held in a relatively tight trading range. SGP has only about 40% of shares in free float and the moves can be dramatic in both directions!

He needs to also learn from others how to present an update. Reading back they said they were heading towards 20% margin in 2016, NOT 2015! So what's changed? Why even mention it? The blokes a bit of numpty sadly.

Spot on observation, think institutions are increasing their cash holdings due to the uncertainty around the global economy & potential Fed hike. So they sell what they can and lock in profits hence the housing stocks have taken a battering as they've had a good run this year. Even though as you say they have great upside potential, its just a case of when and from what level?

Well this has a P/E of 12.6 so can't say its over-valued anymore.

Yep sometimes the market does not make sense. Based on an SP of £7 they are estimating to give a Div yield circa 5.7% /year.

We had another clown forecasting the same doom and gloom back in January and year to date its up 24% even after this pullback. Its simple supply/demand economics. Update in a weeks time anyway.......this clown will be wrong as well.

Have worked with all the house builders and Bovis are one of the best. Doesn't he want to take RDW private? That's why the divi's rubbish. Telford Homes not sure about tbh. Suppose it depends on where you expect to see the biggest growth potential. Bovis has been actively adding to their southern land bank, that's a good bet.

Agree, picked a chunk up the other day sub 10.............it's our little secret this one! A bit lower and I'll have a load more.
