Not a good day to give an upbeat trading statement when the market takes a hammering. Still optimistic that we will break that 50p barrier when things settle down. A nice steady share for the short or longterm.

Someone trying to get a 100K on the order book @ 46.75p.

That's an excellent performance.

A nice little churn of stores too - getting out of expensive leases as they end and re opening in cheaper stores - that's the way to get your costs down in retail in this property climate.

Think these shares will do well.

3.9% increase in like for like sales seems like a decent performance in todays environment. At the top end of my expectation, hopefully the share price will continue it's upward trend and we will break the 50p barrier today.

I certainly think we will break recent highs next week - either before or after their trading update. I can't believe that we won't have a significant increase in like for like figures - my guess is about 3% to 4% - and a promising outlook for the christmas trading. Anyway fingers crossed, it would be nice to see the share price in the 50-60p range.

[cockneyrebel] 20/11/2009 13:44

Geeze it's quoiet here - I love buying when it's quiet and have been again today - chart about to break the recent highs here imo.

CR

Some large trades today - another bit of stock cleared I suspect.

Keen buying today and yesterday after that high volume went through a few days ago.

Large turnover the last couple of days and I have no idea if that's a good or bad sign. I think we should see a nice upturn of like for like in their next trading update (26 Nov) and hopefuuly a increase in the share price To be honest if there wasn't an improvement it would be worrying because last years trading was poor.

[hoper2] 06/11/2009 12:58

No post strikes over christmas is obviously good news, lets hope there is more on the 26th from their trading update. If there is, I can see us passing the 50p mark in the short-term and then it's hoping for a good holiday period for a further improvement in the share price

PE is just 8.4 and they look like they could beat that by a way imo.

CR

Quiet here, picked up ore today - lovely buy point on the chart imo.

I dipped out here having bought near the lows and sold out in the low 30's. Was expecting a retrace that never really materialised. I am not chasing at these levels as although not expensive that are not a screamiming buy once the exceptionals are taking into account.

[cockneyrebel] 19/10/2009 17:49

Numis forecasts look conservative to me too - but then most brokers do start out the year ahead being conservative and in this climate I'd expect them to be even more so.

The debt pay down will add to the earnings in the coming year too imo - they must be being screwed like every other business by the banks on the rate they are paying imo - getting debt down has to be a big plus imo.
