Wilson Connolly

Article Abstract:

Wilson (Connolly) is a housebuilder which performed well in the 1980s but was affected by the early 1990s recession. The company has focused on cheaper homes while other housebuilders have sought to improve their profit margins. The company has changed its approach and aims to focus on margins rather than volume sales. Wilson (Connolly) should benefit from lower interest rates, as will other United Kingdom companies in this sector, but the company may not be the best performer in the sector.

Votes for homes

Article Abstract:

Beazer Homes is a UK company involved in housebuilding. The UK housing market has been hit by a drop in prices and sales, but this means that shares in housebuilders can be acquired more cheaply. The company has made acquisitions including John Mowlem Homes which is involved in social housing so should benefit from a possible increase in spending on homes by the government. Beazer offers a long term opportunity for investors due to the quality of its management team.
