Market sources said that Frasers Group, the billionaire's listed holding company, notified Asos late on Friday that it had become a significant shareholder. The move came days after Asos announced an emergency cost-cutting plan alongside a pre-tax loss of £32m. Frasers has acquired its stake for roughly a tenth of what it would have cost just 18 months ago, when Asos was riding high on the pandemic online shopping boom. Its valuation has collapsed from more than £5bn in March last year to little over £500m on Friday, making a 5pc stake worth roughly £25m. It makes Frasers the fourth-biggest shareholder in Asos, ahead of Schroders but far behind its top investor, the Danish billionaire Anders Holch Povlsen on 26pc.

It remains one of the most shorted stocks on the London market, with hedge funds including Marshall Wace placing substantial bets that it has further to fall. The investment by Frasers is part of gradual empire building online by the owner of Sports Direct and House of Fraser, which was once viewed as a digital laggard. Mr Ashley, 58, who founded the company with a single store in Maidenhead in 1982, has described himself as "a bricks man, not a clicks man". However, he has handed day-to-day management of the company to his son-in-law Michael Murray, 33, who as chief executive is overseeing online expansion. Earlier this year it acquired the Asos rival Missguided for £20m, which Mr Murray said would bring a "digital-first approach" and "additional expertise to the wider Frasers Group". Weeks later Frasers added ISawItFirst, a fast-fashion challenger founded by the brother of Boohoo chairman Mahmud Kamani, to its stable. Now it is seeking full ownership of Mysale, an Australian online retailer which Mr Ashley originally invested in alongside Sir Philip Green. Earlier this month Frasers also revealed a stake in N Brown, the online retailer behind brands including Jacamo and JD Williams. Market sources speculated that Frasers could seek to use its stake in Asos to build a partnership which could involve selling each others' brands or sharing distribution. Frasers is using similar tactics with the German fashion label Hugo Boss, where it has taken a stake to help secure supplies of luxury clothing for its upmarket stores. However, Mr Ashley has also previously traded in and out of shares as a financial bet. Regardless, a stake in Asos further intensifies Frasers' rivalry with Boohoo, which has also been suffering badly in the post-pandemic slump for online retail. From a stronger financial position early last year, Mr Kamani beat Frasers to acquire the Debenhams brand out of administration, putting him in more direct competition with House of Fraser. Mr Ashley had also pursued Debenhams prior to its collapse and saw his £180m stake wiped out.

You've now spammed and then re-spammed the same thing on the THG message board, the Boohoo message board and the ASOS message board.


So it's time for another REALITY CHECK



Purely for clarification purposes, Mike Ashley (former owner of Newcastle United FC) has definitely NOT announced or launched a formal takeover bid for ASOS plc.

Under UK takeover rules, Mike Ashley is under no obligation to launch a takeover bid for ASOS plc unless he acquired more than 29.99% of all ASOS's shares.

Mr Ashley is in fact, a prolific wheeler dealer in shares having previously bought and sold large quantities of shares in Halifax PLC and Lloyds Bank PLC

The reality is that most of the professional Hedge Funds short-selling ASOS shares sold at much higher prices than £40+ per share.



But I'm obviously not going to name, names on here.

[dealy] 23/10/2022 10:56

it is ridiculous to think that all the shorting took place at 36 quid. Shorters probably have an average price of maybe 15 quid. it's impossible to find the top or the bottom in a stock, especially with high volume.There are 5% fewer shares in the free float now and there is renewed investor confidence. The shorts won't feel so smug if the shares are back at 8 quid next week

[dissentingvoices] 23/10/2022 10:44

You really, really do NOT understand how short-selling works !!!

Most of the professional Hedge Funds / short-sellers in ASOS have been selling ASOS shares at prices way ABOVE £40 per share and are now massively in profit.

Think of it this way, when LOSERS like you were BUYING shares at £40+ each, we were SELLING at £40+ each.

So your latest pathetic attempts using multiple usernames to try to ramp up another "dead dog" share is futile.

[dealy] 23/10/2022 10:14

it doesn't matter. it's 5% fewer shares in the free float and will be a major headache for the shorters. it also sends a signal to other investors that there is potential here

ASOS 2nd most shorted stock at 7.5% but Losses predicting 30quid HILARIOUS

[buy2sell1] 21/10/2022 14:08

Time to wake up and smell the coffee LOSER BOY

The only way ASOS shares will ever get back to £30 each is as part of a share consolidation issue.

one NEW replacement ASOS share for every 6 existing ASOS shares

[losses] 21/10/2022 13:32

That's minimum 30quid in a few years. Possibly 60 again in the future

ONLINE RETAILERS WERE PANDEMIC WINNERS - BUT NOT ANYMORE !!!
==============================================================

Online clothing retailers like Boohoo and ASOS are suffering badly due to surging costs, supply chain issues, and from shoppers preferring to visit to physical stores.

Earlier this week, Eve Sleep, which saw soaring demand during the pandemic, collapsed into Administration, while Made.com is desperately seeking a buyer following a failed fundraising.

During the last 12 months, shareholders in online clothing retailers have suffered massive share price falls, but there is worse still to come, as UK interest rates look set to continue rising, UK inflation remains stubbornly high and UK households continue to have to tighten their belts.

Asos has seen its share price fall by 80% during 2022

Boohoo has seen its share price fall by 82% during 2022

In The Style has seen its share price fall by 89% during 2022

Made.com has seen its share price fall by 95% during 2022

N Brown Group has seen its share price by 49% during 2022

THG has seen its share price fall by 85% during 2022


The future looks pretty bleak for clothing retailers, and investors would be wise to AVOID all of them, as the recession continues to bite.
