Guess who is covering their short now? Right at the top

Go on...

:-D




I told them...bet they were having a laugh. We're all bulletin board morons and cannonfodder in the eyes of these city suits.

Still, very amusing :-)

Superb statement in this environment. Nibbled a few.

Grossly oversold and due a strong bounce at the very least. You'd have thought the market re-rates the stock significantly higher beyond the short term though. We also have Merian with a 2.7% short position which could get squeezed too when confidence returns.

It won't take much in an illiquid stock like this. It's alot to cover for a stock liked this so I'd be covering now if I were them before they risk giving it all away.

Stock has now doubled, but guess who is still short a significant amount of the company?

Go on...

:-D

Stock now above 250 and a 67% move higher from where Merian had the opportunity to cover their short. Instead they're sat like a bunch of lemons with a 2% short position.

That's institutional fund manglers for you!

Trading update- Clipper seem to be making the most of the current environment

[wingman54321] 28/5/2020 12:40

Snippet from Steve Parkin’s interview from a horse racing article.


EC: What about the business, Clipper Logistics? I read on your website “it’s all about getting the job done no matter how complex.” I guess things can’t get more complex than they have been for the last few months?

SP: I woke up one morning to the news that we were going into lockdown - the whole world was turning off effectively. That gave us many challenges within our business because we are primarily in the retail space. Fortunately, after a brief hiatus to start with, as a lot our business is online, we started to see huge spikes in online shopping which basically meant Black Friday volumes every day for the last month.
From adversity we actually switched with our online business to record volumes. We were also approached by the Ministry of Defence back at the end of March asking if we could help with the distribution of PPE to hospitals. Within four days of getting the phone call we had a distribution network set up with 100 vehicles and 700 staff and now about 1.2 million square feet of warehousing so within eight weeks of not even working with the NHS, we have now been at the forefront of the PPE deliveries to hospitals and I’m pleased to say it’s been a huge success which has been highlighted by the government. So, from adversity, we seem to be doing very well.
We don’t know what’s at the end of this when things get back to normal but at the moment we’ve been very successful and are confident moving forward.
As you can imagine it’s a political hot-potato, there’s been an awful lot of air time about the lack of PPE into the front line, so we felt we were doing a service for the country, not only our own business. We’re delighted with what we’ve done. We employ 10,000 people and the furloughing of staff has actually been very small. The only ones furloughed are the ones who work in geographical areas where it’s impossible to get them to work.
If you look, our actual staffing levels were 20% up on normal times so we’re bucking the trend and recruiting through this process.

If newlook went bust does anyone know how much it would cost clipper,I really have my doubts about newlook coming back from this. It will be a great shame if it does fail.

[sphere25] 16/4/2020 12:18

Really good move from this stock so well done to all those who bought further down when highlighted here.

Said Merian should be covering when it was down at 150 and below, but they only covered a small portion shortly after moving from 2.70% to 2.02%.

Greedy!

[albert3591] 03/4/2020 19:43

Newlook is suspending payments to suppliers for existing stock indefinitely,telling them in a letter that the stock can be collected by its owners.Big news over the weekend maybe,it sure doesn’t look good for them.

[loosetoolz] 03/4/2020 11:22

Well that rise didn’t last long. Guess we are in a bear market

Clipper Logistics plc Clipper awarded NHS PPE contract

[tricky1992000] 31/3/2020 10:09

You're a silly donkey that doesn't understand this business, it's more than just drivers. There are these things called warehouses where workers work and one warehouse Selby deals with returns from ASOS.

Anyway, it's now reached the media...

[costax1654x] 31/3/2020 09:40

You are the silliest donkey I ever seen!

[costax1654x] 31/3/2020 09:39

Drivers going in break same time?

[costax1654x] 31/3/2020 09:38

Going in break same time?

[tricky1992000] 26/3/2020 17:00

Getting told by workers who work at clipper that they are not protecting workers from corona. Including all workers going on breaks at the same time to areas get crowded (social distancing) not sending home coughing workers.

[albert3591] 26/3/2020 15:39

I don’t think they are oversold when you can see a lot of clippers work is retail clothing,shops told to close because not essential.white van man will not be able to cope with extra work. Where are all the customers going to go if they are in lock down. So therefore they won’t be buying.Make a case for me please.

Not very well it would seem

[albert3591] 21/3/2020 04:44

Newlook is a major part of clippers revenue,see how it goes Monday.

[pj fozzie] 27/1/2020 20:27

EVERY share in my portfolio is down today - except Clipper! I wonder why Clipper has missed the doom.

Cheers,

If he wants a higher valuation he shouldn’t have dumped a load of stock a while back. Probably shoulda declared more about the weirdness in the accounts the bears picked up on.

In my humble...

[bookbroker] 15/1/2020 13:20

I see that, but Steve Parkin is known to want to realise a higher valuation, clearly Sun could not agree upon one thing or another!
