Today is going to be a washout, it's equilivent to Christmas eve getting cancelled.

I wasn't joking about Arcadia Qantas. They are now in the position BHS were when it was sold for a pound. Large pension deficit, falling sales, too many stores. Another casualty looming.

Debenhams interim results date 19th April 2018



So I was right third week of April 2018

Debs has become a one way bet trading share...until the trading update...then on results day and after you a get a relief rally of say 20 - 30% from a very low base of say 16 - 17p...on anticipation that trading is not as bad as the market was expecting....rally to 20 - 22p and most will still be under water...

diku,

The only ringing that Q heard was the alarm bells going off.

I would be very alarmed if I was an investor in retail at the moment there is little good news in the sector.

There are going to be a whole hoard of profit warnings in April/May either before or on results days.

Debenhams announce their interims in April at various dates mid to end month, my guess would be second to third week this month unless they think they need to announce sooner. Have seen no diary date given I suspect the reason for that is obvious, they need to consider the affect on Easter trading fully together with a further week of sales after Easter.

I would not like management job on the interims this year.

Research not required...has been going down since 80p tills ringing or not...have you missed the plot?...

Who cares if it is going to rain or snow , Debenhams have been selling lots of winter clothes to keep everyone warm and dry.

Thankyou ,Debenhams for having the foresight to see the unusual weather pattern lately .

While competitors are trying to sell spring wear ,Debenhams are doing fantastic in their warm clothes sales with a back up of spring clothes to wear underneath .

You may scorn Simon but your past is summed up again with the posting on the EKT blog

Mail updates on Easter weather..



Retailers shares are bound to be hit when the market opens Tuesday and investors will have to prepare for a barrage of profit warnings.

Retailers were hoping to claw back some lost growth this year, its bound to be a disaster.

[debsdowner] 01/4/2018 16:42

robot,

You will be boo-hoo-ing soon,in a cryptic sense, when Bucher's strategy backfires.

The High street must have had one of the worst Easter breaks for yonks and tomorrow will be another wash-out.

ITCM1 Very good April fool.

Please do your own research.

Arcadia could be another one. Just pulled out of a prime retail park in York, closing four stores. If Asos and Boo-hoo are storming ahead it's not difficult to see who the big loser is going to be.

I think are real crisis is going to blow up because the decade of cheap money and naive investors has meant rents have gone way above a sustainable level.

It is crunch time folks.

[debsdowner] 01/4/2018 14:08

Agreed.

Westfarmers must have lost more than they paid for Homebase, it must be one of the worst deals ever done and it may get worse as shoppers tighten their belts.

Some very big names going to hit the wall soon.
