Fair enough and a profit is a profit at the end of the day.

Tim: I do have a few left...
I think DRONES and AI LAPTOPS will be huge this Christmas.

Looks a pretty solid set of results.

Not sure how they work out the new taxes will only cost £32m but hey I'm not an accountant!

The fact it held and built on the gains during the day is a big positive especially as it has broke through resistance.

Not sure why you would sell here if you believe in the company.It seems to have delivered on what it promised with more to come.

Next test will be the peak update usually in early Jan.

Agree and maybe bidders will come back?
A new high for the year today

[scemer] 12/12/2024 13:02

Agree schof multiple's of now patience as always

Currys are doing very well under the circumstances. They are showing resilience in the face of some extreme events. They are currently trading at near the bottom of a severe trading cycle and with the future (even with a labour government)looking positive, we should see this move up to a decent level in the next two years.
One for your ISA or SIPP with lots of capital gains IMHO.
Fully loaded.

Hope you didn't listen to all the crows squawking earlier this year, they just want to rob you.

A nice climb in price

[scemer] 12/12/2024 09:46

Fair point steeple I'm sitting on the side of the fence that says it will and expect some more positive brokers post pension review.

[steeplejack] 12/12/2024 09:24

Currys has been containing costs and trimming cap expenditure so the recent budget has simply exacerbated things rather than derailed their corporate strategy.The question is how long demand will hold up post Christmas.The suggestion is that interest in A1 laptops in particular might enable Currys to buck what is a deteriorating retail industry outlook.Nordic operations remain difficult albeit improving in a very tough environment.It all comes down to rating which is pretty undemanding but in a UK equity market which appears drab and uninterested compared with all the fireworks surrounding Nasdaq,its anyones guess whether the share price pushs on to over a pound.

All positive,guidance unchanged,dividends returning,pension review looking good can see a return to the 1.20 of dec 22

[netcurtains] 12/12/2024 08:31

Interestingly they appear to suggest that the extra NI bill will have little or no impact on profits or turnover.....

Retailers tell the government and media one thing and the shareholders another

[netcurtains] 12/12/2024 08:29

I sold. Took profits.
Thanks guys.

[netcurtains] 12/12/2024 08:23

I cant understand why there are no messages...
Is no one interested in Christmas?

😀

[netcurtains] 12/12/2024 08:00

This is what I've been saying for ages:
"
One highlight is rising demand for AI laptops, where we enjoy over 75% market share in the UK. AI is a trend with a lot further to run.
"

[netcurtains] 12/12/2024 07:58

Sounds good:
"
Current year outlook

· Trading since the period end has been consistent with the Board's expectations

· Full year guidance unchanged - the Group continues to expect growth in profits and free cash flow for the year

[babbler] 12/12/2024 07:21

The Group has assessed the impact of recent changes to Government policy including the recent budget. The full year aggregated impact is expected to be an incremental cost to the Group of £32m

[tim 3] 12/12/2024 00:30

Be interesting to see if they are ant comments about the budget.

[netcurtains] 11/12/2024 18:09

What could go wrong?
Gulp....

[tim 3] 11/12/2024 15:30

First half results tomorrow.

[netcurtains] 10/12/2024 08:31

What I like about Curry's..
There is a heck of a lot of advertising for AI enabled laptops...
None of which are paid for by Currey's.

This means its free advertising...

[netcurtains] 05/12/2024 10:43

Retailers took a bit of hit just now...

[tim 3] 03/12/2024 14:25

I agree and in fairness price has recovered since this morning suggesting buyers are about.

Christmas rarely disappoints for Currys.

[scemer] 03/12/2024 13:59

I think so too,who was going to buy so close to Black Friday Barclay saying card sales up 9% so far on Black Friday last year all gone into December figures I suggest
