Our new ambassador Lucy must be doing wonders for Sales, along with the new stores slowly being refitted and driving like-to-like.

CEO said from 65 loss making stores they're down to 34 so lots of potential still for huge loss cutting that all goes straight to the bottom line this financial year.

Is this finally the bottom? Nice to see some momentum build from now on. Quite amazing that CPR were my best performer yesterday! Says a lot probably!

Wait to do what tr65? Presumably if it goes to £2 it would reaffirm your view that the chart indicates it's "going bust within 6 months"?

[tr65] 25/8/2016 20:48

Still don't trust it. I'll wait for another go at 200p.

Looks like it blonde...tidy :)

400k trade gone, seller finally vanished and starting to edge up? Big volume.

Topped up today.

supasapi - The last holdings RNS states that Neptune actually INCREASED their holding above 10%. There has to be a reason for their selling and now buying, but only Neptune know it!

tr65 the market can be irrational - the company is sound on fundamentals - but agree it would have been a great short in last 6 months.... still might be up to point where Neptune stop selling.... love to know what their plans are

[blondeamon] 16/8/2016 14:14

Neptune buying again, they are now above 10%

These guys are absolutely bonkers!! Selling for months depressing the price and now buying again!

Thought about having a few more below 220 yesterday but decided against it for now

Very quiet here past few months. Company doing really well but market seems unconvinced, very frustrating at times but value will out itself.

Come October we might be north of 3£ again. International Sales must be giving a good boost to profits now and UK like-for-likes going as planned last time we heard from the company.

The share price has held off well from droping below the £2 mark, interesting, I did think it might have dived under for a bit, holding well at the moment.

Yes QS99 UCG offers a P/E OF 7 going down to 5.5 with a dividend of say 7.5% with zero gearing half expect management to consider an offer to take it private. They get stick for paying themselves more than they deserve in view of the business size and profits. UCG are in the north house prices may well fall -however they never went up as fast as the south so will presumably fall less.

[she-ra] 08/7/2016 15:43

QS99 - Housing market crash and a weak economy plus worries over Carpetright's European business post Brexit all add to long-term woes.

[qs99] 08/7/2016 15:26

interest rate decision next week may help boost things....nice bounce by CPR....personally think UCG is also a geared play anyone in?

"Britain's economy was headed down the tubes as foreign inflows faltered even before the Brexit referendum," said Carl Weinberg, chief economist at High Frequency Economics. "Voting to leave Europe only added a new layer of uncertainty to an economy that was already faltering."

[dlku] 05/7/2016 18:45

Conclusion
The UK has entered a period of uncertainty and significant economic adjustment. The
efforts of the Bank of England will not be able fully and immediately to offset the
market and economic volatility that can be expected while this adjustment proceeds.
