2% profit margin you say. I think they are cancelling a lot of accounts which have a high return of goods. I can only imagine these punters cost a lot of money from a cost point of view. Plus have seen them do a lot of promotions recently such 20% off vouchers. Sales must be slow.

A very dangerous game. Their customers ARE their business.

Worth monitoring the ratings on the likes of TrustPilot. Also worth noting the rising payables/accruals, which includes a provision for returns. I think the company might be flaming its relationship with customers to protect its cash flows (which are rubbish anyway).

Quite some downward movement, last time that happened preceded a Profits Warning; does the city know something the private investors are not privy to?

JD Sports and Asos warehouses like 'dark satanic mills'

JD Sports and Asos have been accused of running their warehouses like "satanic mills" after figures showed the number of ambulance callouts to their sites.

Ambulances were dispatched 40 times to JD Sports' troubled Rochdale site last year, while there were 45 callouts to the Asos warehouse in Grimethorpe.

Union Unite said the figures reignited concerns about working conditions.

Both employers emphasised the importance they placed on the health and safety of all staff.

The figures, based on Freedom of Information requests, showed that ambulances were called out to the Rochdale warehouse 117 times over the past three years and 148 times to the Asos site in South Yorkshire.

I know he is a billionaire and I know how disrupting his business has been to others in the industry. That's all I need to know. ;)

Disgusting and shameful comments, Minerve. You neither know him nor his family.

Why would you need to be in Sri Lanka this time of year???????????

[minerve 2] 23/4/2019 18:33

I have empathy but in the right direction.

[rogthepodge] 23/4/2019 18:31

so sad for him, and sad for you that you have no empathy with others

[minerve 2] 23/4/2019 18:16

I have no compassion for billionaires. Sorry.

[minerve 2] 23/4/2019 18:15

Is the pain of 3 lost lives the same as the pain of thousands of lost livelihoods or poor quality of life? It maybe to the person who is close to the 3 but as for the rest......

[rogthepodge] 23/4/2019 18:14

'Minerve2' I didn't realise you were an anti-capitalist, and in any case, hardly the same thing. For heavens sake man! show some human compassion

[minerve 2] 23/4/2019 17:54

He didn't become a billionaire without someone suffering somewhere. I wouldn't be too eager to cry over his bad luck. Did he cry for those jobs lost as he competed his way to becoming a billionaire? I think not.

[jarega85] 23/4/2019 17:05

Had a good run, expecting it to bounce off 4000 so I am out, good luck all
