  • Analysts Back Barratt Redrow as Top FTSE 100 Buy in April
    March 28, 2026, 5:20 AM EDT. Barratt Redrow, the UK's largest housebuilder by volume, has seen its FTSE 100 stock fall 38% over the past year amid sector-wide challenges like excess inventory, rising costs, and high interest rates. Despite CEO turnover and profit warnings, analysts project a robust 76% price gain, citing Barratt Redrow's significant cost advantage through scale, accounting for 10% of UK homebuilding. The sector's cyclical downturn and macroeconomic pressures, including inflation linked to the Iran conflict, underpin near-term risks. However, the structural housing shortage and Barratt Redrow's ability to negotiate supplier costs are seen as key factors for long-term recovery.
