Shorters burnt.

Help! My short position got crushed, and now I owe XYZ

Outside of the FTSE 350, DFS Furniture racked up strong gains as it posted an expected drop in half-year profit and revenue but struck a confident tone on its outlook, bucking the downcast retail trend of late.

Retail sales fall for 3rd month in a row in Ireland.

[qantas] 28/3/2018 11:34

Sir Philip Green has escaped a ban from serving as a company director by the Insolvency Service over the deal to sell BHS for £1 in 2015, a year before the retailer collapsed. However, Dominic Chappell, who led the consortium that bought BHS, faces a lengthy boardroom ban after a government inquiry into the collapse of the retailer in 2016, which led to the loss of 11,000 jobs. - Guardian

CBI

Beast from the East

"sales for the time of year were significantly below normal, and by the greatest extent since April 2013. The volume of orders placed with suppliers, meanwhile, was broadly unchanged.
The fall in retail sales was broad-based, with lower sales at non-specialised stores (i.e. department stores), furniture & carpets, clothing, and other normal goods the main drags on headline sales growth."

Robot, you may be a millionaire but I don't understand your investment philosophy of losing money this way. Why keep buying at 40p, 30p, 25p, 23p, 21p etc and see massive loses? Looking at the graph are you not better waiting for any potential upside to start rather than keep trying to find the bottom which hasn't worked for you?

[niggle] 28/3/2018 09:34

Delusional, misinformed & idiotic comment - no one is posting negative comments about their products. We are speculating on their performance. That is all.

Are you going to repeat that falsehood in every post 'two weeks here and I know everything' robot ic0 ?

It's 'their' by the way - didn't you go to school? evidently not.

DFS profits plunge and if that wasn't bad enough Easter is going to be cold, leaving spring and summer clothes on shelves.

Deb's you are funny is it called armaggedon?

(in the New Testament) the last battle between good and evil before the Day of Judgement.
the place where the Armageddon will be fought.
a dramatic and catastrophic conflict, especially one seen as likely to destroy the world or the human race.
"nuclear Armageddon"
The game is over this one is going to fly high.
The winner takes it all.

Department stores wont all survive says University expert.



Beales tried to seek a conversion to flats at Bournemouth but was refused.

Marks has already shut in Bournemouth.

The U E thinks John Lewis has the best chance but even they are struggling.

Debenhams has too many stores and will not be able to differentiate enough imo.

Just fill the shops with vending machines, no staff to help,save all those wages, and pension costs, maternity pay etc. no complaints face to face, no cash to handle and they do not get much bigger than the Ford vending Machine that sells cars - so why not everything else.

QANTAS

Everyone is doing the same thing all are trying to make their store a "destination" and "experience" for shoppers.

Whether it be John Lewis, Debenhams, House of Fraser, NEXT or even some of the supermarkets as well all are trying to find new ways of enticing shoppers into stores.

That is all very well when people have surplus money, but not when money is tight.

Car parking, having something to eat when out, screaming kids, old and rain, all these factors are against bricks and mortar stores.

The High street is in demise and things have changed!

Some retailers will survive but many will go to the wall.

[qantas] 27/3/2018 17:52

The Debenhams Redesigned strategy states our mission to make shopping confidence-boosting, sociable and fun. We are delivering a plan that will make our stores more of a destination with a great beauty and beauty services offer, food and experiences as well as our showing our strength in accessories ...

Misinformed as well as misguided!

This whole thread from the very beginning has been negative Debs and you have gladly posted on it.

You have been a member of ADVFN for two weeks and suddenly you are an expert.

Give me strength!

In 5 years the share price has gone from 110p to 21p.

[ltcm1] 27/3/2018 13:52

I think robot is something to do with Mike Ashley, who is looking at a near total wipeout on his investment here, bought at between 60-70p (my guess).

[qantas] 27/3/2018 13:08

robot may be a algorithm..

As for Debenhams (DEB), currently trading around the 21p mark, it appears any continued weakness below 20.5p can head for 18p and that's it. Anything lower and we start prefacing targets with minus signs.

Working on the basis we could hope for a bounce anytime soon, anything bettering 29p should prove interesting, allowing for 31.5p initially with secondary, if bettered, at 36p.

Unfortunately, recently we've seen too many shares doing their dying swan routine simply recoil to donk against the immediate downtrend.

In the case of Debenhams, this will make 27p a reasonable bounce target. It is perhaps worth noting this share achieved a low of 20.4p during the 2009 market crash.

Curiously though, Debenhams was ahead of the curve, managing its low at the end of 2008!

I've reached the conclusion that robot is not a real investor and has not purchased any debenhams shares. I assume they are here just to provide entertainment on the positive side to try and counter the supposed negative posts. I certainly enjoy reading the daily posts of all.
