300p would only be an increase of 12% above the current price. As a long term investor that wouldn’t interest me. I own Beezley, which was bought by Zurich at a premium of 60%.

It only says he’s considering buying.

But other house builders haven’t seen the same increase.

Can someone tell me please

Guitarsolo, how do you think the discount to net asset value could be reduced?

The analyst has increased his price target to 985p and sees 20% total shareholder return upside

For Short sellers

It's hard to predict where this will go, there's so many aspects that can influence the price

My concern would be if their business does not do well the dividend could be reduced

I know the price will drop 72p but they still have to part with the cash. so it does make a difference. Yes, if more shorts come on board that would concern me, but here and now 0.5%.

Quite agree Alex. Its just someones opinion, and only 0.5%.
This stock goes ex div tomorrow, leaving the short sellers to pay out the 72p dividend!

If the fund that has gone short were so good they would have been short when this stock was 40 pounds. It is just an opinion, in the same way there are buyers and sellers in the market everyday . Both can't be right.

But this applies to any share. It might be shorted at any time.

Your worried by the short interest of 0.5 % ????

The short on this stock is only 0.5%. Very small, if you have confidence in that then go short yourself!

would have given this good consideration before making their decision. I have more confidence in their decision than the opinion of Its Toast

worrying times for anyone still short

That's right. So, well over 10% P.A. then

Do they really have a choice? If they do not buy they are in effect saying these shares are not worth buying at this price!

Being married to the CEO should not exclude her from that position IF she is a person suitably qualified.
