Mark Hadfield, managing director, partnerships Merseyside and Cheshire West, Countryside, said: “Our existing Wren Green development has proven extremely popular with local families of all sizes, and by extending this established development we know we’ll be offering much sought after quality homes which buyers in the region are looking for.

I do not think it adds to or detracts from the position here. We have not experienced the sp rise of Countrywide, based substantially on the reports of strong STC sales in the regions with London lagging. Countrywide is a particular case and the capital raise comes as no surprise, nor the fact of movement on the board constitution. Alchemy will now control it.

There is also an evident increase in buying volume on a no news day when the indices are generally down.

Seems to be catching on pre-launch.

This is a turnaround stock, whatever way you look at it. The rest is bells and whistles.

It seems highly unlikely any circuit break will place any new restrictions on housebuilders. It has not in N.Ireland.

Thank you. And the original announcement about an announcement shows they have agreed the funding.
"The public funding of such projects would also help offset the massive damage that the coronavirus pandemic has done to the bloc's economy. Some of the financial aid involved is set to come from the 750 billion-euro recovery fund backed by EU leaders over the summer."

I have not found anything more, yet.
There can be a self-defeating tendency to expect more than the immediate objective.
So I was supporting your view, with earlier posts in mind, as to management of expectations.
On those earlier posts, things are not (yet) rosy here. If things were 'rosy', the shares would have been upwards of £1, and there would not have been a capital raise. CD and R originally invested at 25p and 30p ( taking two seats on the board ) and have since added, in the researched conviction there was a real prospect of making money, supported at 30p by IKO ( currently suffering huge losses on their overall shareholding ) who should know SIG and the market well.
And a lot of work is required over time.

In that context expectations should be limited to those of the management.

"The second half of 2020 is expected to remain loss making, but at a lower rate than the first despite some increased pressure on gross margin in the UK.
As at 31 August, the Group had cash resources of £267.5m, with a net cash position, pre IFRS 16, of £29.2m. Approximately £13m of deferred payments relating to government support schemes will unwind over the coming months, the majority doing so in H2 2020, and in aggregate H2 is expected to generate a cash outflow, as previously outlined above."
"The business therefore expects a stronger second half trading performance, subject to the risk of a second wave of Covid-19, as detailed in the "Group outlook" section of the Trading Review."

Yes - from a similar article - "Boomin says the ten agents revealed today are just the most high profile, with more announcements to come soon. But the inclusion of Foxtons is a surprise – the company has been, until now, one of the few estate agents in the UK to eschew outside tech and develop its own systems."

Not a good day for housebuilders. Vistry, announcing contract wins down also.
RNS trading statement best summarised by Peel Hunt
Peel Hunt, which has a 'buy' recommendation on the stock and a target price of 380p, said there were "few surprises" in the pre-close statement.

RNS "These developments and contract wins further amplify Vistry Partnerships' established role as a key partner with Registered Providers and local authorities." In the event of a downturn in the private market, it is what will sustain and grow Vistry.

Shrugged off.
Barrett very positive trading update perhaps helping lift today's market.

Sells I should have said. Down tomorrow.

RNS CEO's wife buys £715000 worth. Ought to be a clue there.
