Market wrap: Town Centre Securities leads REIT risers

Town Centre Securities topped the REIT risers in London today, its shares finishing the session up by 6.6% to a post-Covid high of 145p.

Last week the company launched a £5m share buyback programme, its first since the early 2000s.

With shares trading at a sharp discount to NAV of 286p, TCS said reducing the number of shares in circulation would be “an appropriate means of returning value, whilst maximising sustainable long-term growth for shareholders”.

The day’s biggest real estate fall was posted by Crest Nicholson, shares in which fell by 5.4% to 411.8p, a month low, losing the gains made yesterday after it gave a boost to its earning guidance.

The FTSE 100 ended the session at 7,136, a rise of 0.4%. The FTSE 250 closed at 22,646, up 0.6%.
