The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Good post - briefly,

- political risk (to the economy, to housebuilding regs/planning etc)

- cladding remediation risk (huge)

- regulations making it take longer to build (a 6 month average extra delay = may wipe out the profit margin on the build)

- interest rate risk

- house prices are unaffordable, yet housebuilders who bought land 20 years ago still can barely turn a profit on it. wtf. if they can't make money in this market, how will they make money if the housing market crashes?

- stock imho is highly operationally geared to all of the above and to broad economy/recession risk

- stock is 'cheap' valued relative to a 'mild' future, has net cash, and can probably survive one of the above going badly wrong but not several

- cladding! again! it's a huge issue and potentially wipes out the net cash position.

- it will be a feast or famine kind of stock I think

all IMHO, please check for yourself.
