And so say all of us:keep strong chapoos

Moving averages look more positive if we close around 110p. It will have built another base for a second go at the 200-day average, having got back above the 20-day and 50-day with them rising this time. Upward momentum looks to be building.

I have noticed lately that more and more home deliveries are being charged for, and this is the new normal after the initial period of "free delivery" hooks. Really, £3.50 for the convenience of having stuff delivered is not a lot (time saved, petrol and hassle saved, sofas sat on/in...), and "premium" evening delivery slots are often £6 or £7.

Hopefully, finally, this space will start to make proper money for the best and most efficient logistics operations.

Speeds.
Excellent find. share price down today but presents a juicy opportunity to buy more stock, but maybe not yet as Nov.is traditionally poor for shares. There may be a better opp. Before x div.which of course is guaranteed.
Of course the share should be your ISA!

Considering topping up if it briefly retraces to 108-109...

quietly impressed and enjoying this ....

[retsius] 03/11/2017 12:23

This should move sideways/upwards towards the end of the year with the excellent divvy in prospect.
The new Finance Director has done a superb job in dropping the debt significantly over the last year,something the markets really like. I checked out his C.V. and it was very impressive. I think he is really on the ball with the company.

he time period of your chart does not show that these sharp moves happen from time to time with this share. Also the line of decline has been broken thru on the upside. Next step is the break thru the 200 DMA before we can think about 125p, but who knows?

Yes 125 is a 'busy' area.

[edmundshaw] 28/10/2017 12:19

Resistance at 125p perhaps, short term, which would represent a near 8% yield. If the yield can be shown to be sustainable, the price will go higher, and if/when the investment into the staged delivery of parcels pays off this could go a lot higher.

The loss running at around £6 per parcel "passed" is a bit big, I hope most of that is down to putting systems in place and to a smaller extent current capacity being underutilised. But of course in the long run this will either reverse, or worst case be shelved (for a big recovery in cahflow) if it doesn't move into profit. One way or the other, that loss-making segment is not going to be a drag on profits for too long.

[zimbtrader] 28/10/2017 10:24

Same here Prokartace. Nice profit banked yesterday on trades made prior to results. Has taken some of the sting out of a loss position. The question is where does the share price go now? I was surprised by the scale of the rise, pleasantly, but am hard pressed to see it going much higher. I hope I am wrong!

[prokartace] 27/10/2017 16:36

Well, core position intact. Bought a trading position 2 days before results, believing the trading statement wouldn't be lying. Happy days 22% in 4 days. Onward and upward!

In fairness all the trade has done is reduce my book cost to current levels but I will take that and a nice divi to come!
