FTSE 250 movers: Bridgepoint surges on US buy; Housebuilders fall

Mon 29 Jun 2026 14:46

(Sharecast News) - FTSE 250 (MCX) 23,143.46 -0.02%

Shares in Bridgepoint surged 14% on Monday as the UK private equity group said it was buying the real estate arm of US investment firm Kayne Anderson for $1.4bn, making its first move into the US property sector.

The deal comprises $759m in cash and around 189m new Bridgepoint shares.

Kayne Anderson Real Estate is a leading real estate investment platform, headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, with $22bn of assets under management.

Investors were digesting the latest figures from the Bank of England, which showed that mortgage approvals fell in May to the lowest level since December 2023 with shares in Vistry and Bellway falling as a result.

The latest Money and Credit report showed that mortgage approvals declined to 56,200 from 66,000 in April, coming in below the average of 63,300 over the previous six months. Approvals for remortgaging - which only capture remortgaging with a different lender - also fell, to 33,300 in May from 51,200 in April.

Net borrowing of mortgage debt declined to £2.9bn in May from £4.4bn a month earlier, while the effect interest rate - the actual interest paid - on newly-drawn mortgages increased to 4.22% from 4.08%.
