Thanks Elffin,
Maybe they just decided to slow down on the domestic development due to Covid, think I need to do a bit of research into their land bank. Nice rise again today, even if it did drop back a bit. I bought and sold a few times over the years and regret not just holding. Now looking at long term for these, with the hope of getting decent divs .

The estate management, student let’s and build to rent sector look good, but they don’t seem to have much going on in the private housing (division) development side. Watkin Jones used to everywhere in N.Wales and Cheshire, but their web site showing little action at present whilst plenty of other developers active in area. It’s an important income stream. Anybody know any different or picked up any news on this area?

It seems the only way I’m going to get any value from the AA is to drive hell for leather over the border in my car breaking all Welsh ( facist) Covid rules until I run outta diesel and then call international AA rescue to tow me home. Anyone buying?

It seem to show nearly twice as many shares bought as those sold. Even with few trades, still the main demand is buy shares. Yet the shares go down. Go figure.

Low level of trades and more bought than sold, yet 3% plus drop on SP. Honestly, I’m just going to buy a bag of feathers and throw one out of the window to guess this market. Blow left buy, blow right sell. If it goes straight up I’ll just pack my bags and everything will be going straight down.

Panderman, I’m with you. The other Friday there was a sale of 7.2 million shares after close, and I’m yet to see the corresponding purchase. Similar large sale from vanguard earlier this week. Someone was happy to pick the tab up at between 33p and 37p a share.
Could do with a web site that after an RNS comes out they issue a statement...”what this means is....” .Life’s and education....expensive education sometimes

Major...It’s personal to you. Unfortunately the leasehold thing is now a political witch-hunt. I worked in financial services for 40 years and also dealt in mortgages, always advised against leasehold or double checked clients knew details and discussed with their solicitor, plus it was always a question on a mortgage app, so little sympathy for those who enter into such a large purchase without due diligence. It needs to be remembered a lot of newer developments where set up with as almost closed communities, with lots of green space, and ponds and local councils dictated they didn’t want to be responsible for the public realm side of things. Agreed big step from leasehold non / little profit to reselling leasehold as a cash cow.

Does anyone know of a source, that has an easy to understand guide of RNS notices ? Some are straight forward but others such as the last one from Barclays with Platinum advisers, I can’t make head nor tail. It reads like they have a 3.08% short but I doubt that’s the case in the current climate.

I need to put money into pharma....holding Lloyd’s shares gives me a right headache. I would feel better if there was some small divi in the offering that could be used to pick up shares at these lowly prices.

Perhaps BOD should now put out the delayed trading update.

They need to do an ad about breaking down on a “smart motorway” that should put the fear of G up most and triple membership.

Voice of reason. Thks. I struggle to understand the bond market well enough, think I need to find a few you tube vids to re-educate on the intricacies

Well Last week I set a sell price if it hit 40p, break even point for me after 3 years of pain (originally in at £1.62 but got to Av40p)......but think I deserve some cream....75p will do nicely and I can also wipe out the nightmare of Woodford or as I refer Woodc#nt, who also held AA

My first purchase was £1.62, Done a bit of buying and selling in between, but my lowest was last week @ 22p. If it gets to my average of 46p, hallelujah I’m off with not a penny profits after 3 years but some good life experience.

As they hand over the rent to build Watkin Jones look to secure the management and maintainace contracts. The group anticipates managing over 22k units by 2021 under the Fresh property group banner. This area increased by nearly 2000 units (12%) last year. Makes it a more interesting investment IMHO.
