I stand by my analysis.
The share price is going up.
However only time will tell

tony, some people make me laugh, any bull and they think that's it. Quil, yeah yeah yeah

The demographics of ASC customers are younger and hip, Next caters for different customers at the mo, which could change we shall see. Many are naturally looking at the model and trying to replicate that. It's normal, loo at apple. One must evolve the business model, that's key.

OMG - competition! May as well pack up and go home rather than building a Billion pound business.

There is far too much competition on line for ASOS to compete with. Next us eating into ASOS uk market share on a daily basis.IMO we will get another dreaded profit warning, they come in threes!.?

Following a wretched period of underperformance, Standard Life Investment's (SLI) Harry Nimmo has said he is very happy with his stock picks and "cautiously optimistic".

Today, 8:57 PM
The manager has ditched a number of stocks recently, such as online retailer ASOS and media group Blinkx, both of which saw their share prices collapse after profit warnings.

its about time we had a divi or a merger offer to lift the sp

This stock is proving the formula; that a stock price falls three times as quickly as it rises, on average.

Cavalry riding to the rescue again I see :-)

Zak Mir , Editor Spreadbet Magazine talks about the latest news on ASOS (ASC), where "the bubble has truly burst", with a downside below 2,000p still possible. Watch:

Funny, I didn't hear all this "sense" talk when it went up from 5000 to 7000??? Where were you all then? Make money here by shorting - that's all we have to do. Right?

Time will tell as they say.

Each to his own opinion. I steer well clear of ridiculously overvalued stocks, just a rule of mine. When this gets to what I call a sensible valuation I might be tempted, that is if it hasn't issued more profit warnings!

[paulo92] 05/8/2014 11:46

Lots of "know it alls" on this thread... always makes me chuckle!

[ny boy] 05/8/2014 11:25

I bet there's a few that got sucked into those broker upgrades when the share price was over 6000p, probably wishing they had sold and not got greedy after a spectacular run up.

What goes up, must come down.

[taurusthebear] 05/8/2014 10:48

mylands - suck and eggs spring to mind. As in 2000 dotcom, there were plenty of people who turned a blind eye to the PE here because the share price had risen, give or take a year, for about 9 years.

But just because something is horrendously overvalued doesn't necessarily mean that it is then going to revert to being valued a la Moss Bros (on the basis of a sales/profits disappointment, unless they continue to disappoint, or even reduce, for several quarters). Anyone who thinks that is, frankly, dreaming. :0)

[jl9] 05/8/2014 10:31

A modern-day 'tulipomania'.

[mylands] 05/8/2014 10:06

Hype and greed!

[gripfit] 05/8/2014 09:49

how the heck did it get to 70 quid in the first place ??

[mylands] 05/8/2014 08:31

Sky-high p/e's, and 46 is sky-high, can only be maintained if the sales/profits graph is ever upwards. Any blip, and the trading update on 5th June which was in effect a profits warning, is the kiss of death for an over-valued stock. The price has halved since then.

Looking at the graph for the three months before the trading update and that tells a story as well, when the price fell from £70 at the end of February, all the way down to £40 in mid-May. You can't tell me that those in the know were not aware that the gravey train was coming to an end.

[taurusthebear] 05/8/2014 08:06

If you think it will go from 70 quid to a fiver merely on over-valuation, you belong in an asylum. :0)
