Q: have a question regarding 2 stocks in the housing sector. GBRK and BLBD- both have done very well but is it reasonable to think that you could start a new position in one of these if there is a drawdown this month? The idea being to start a position and build from there.
Thanks, Lesley

Q: If the US pundits are correct and we are moving in a "peak" interest rate world this would bode well for the various forms of accommodation construction. Projections seem to suggest supply will remain tight until mortgage rates ease, and I believe that is likely as we move into the latter half of 2024.

Given that, my first question to you is do you feel that now, or soon, is a reasonable time to look into companies who would benefit from an expanding US housing market? If so, I would be interested in your take on a "top 3" home builders to invest in and then a "top 3" within the home construction supply chain. I already own a couple of lumber producers and am interested in mid-stream suppliers.

Thanks very much; Merry Christmas to you all.

Q: Hello 5i team
Could I have your thoughts on Green Brick Partners please? If you could highlight what you see as positive and negative. If it falls into a growth catagory and if you would buy it right now compared to its peers (Please mention who has better prospects if you feel that way). If so to what weighting would you buy up to?
Thank you
Jeremy
