Miton have upped their stake to 6%, so at least the divi is safe I reckon.

Coolness you should really have reproduced the whole quote as the 'profit warning' doesn't exist 'One feature of our increasing presence in the internet retail sector, in line with the trading pattern of our key customers in this sector, is the emphasis on second-half volumes. As a consequence our full year results will be more strongly influenced by performance in the second half of the year and our results for the first half of the year are likely to be below those achieved in 2013. Given the improvement in sales levels in 2014 to date and the actions being taken, the full year outlook remains in line with our expectations'

Not bullish that the fund manager who accumulated 12% last November has apparently stopped buying, despite the fall.

Spooked perhaps by the recent unquantified warning of a profits dip:


..."results for the first half of the year are likely to be below those achieved in 2013".

Just bought some - good dividend here too. Good luck guys

Having read through the statement I couldn't find any reason for the persistant drop in the share price and just topped up with another small purchase of 5K @ 39.005p. It is my intention to keep topping up on any further weakness if they continue to fall - that is provided no unexpected bad news emerges.

[gswredland] 29/5/2014 16:02

Any one got level 2 please?

[gswredland] 29/5/2014 15:55

Nothing in the statement to suggest worries - looking to get in on this weakness

[quazie12] 29/5/2014 15:38

quite worrying limit up if you ask me. I think there must be a large and persistent seller out there somewhere.

I didnt find anything in the recent announcement to be concerned about. There's an increased dividend due 6th June as well. Just wish I hadnt bought so many at the 48p top.

I am going to set a stop loss at 36p, if it falls below that then someone knows something we dont.

any reason for the drop over the last week?

[hydrus] 29/5/2014 12:41

Bargain territory again

[hydrus] 06/5/2014 15:39

Decent statement in my view - macf are notoriously cautious in their outlook but clearly they are well placed to benefit from increasing internet shopping. A very sound business and a solid LT investment IMO
