"Can't go much lower now"


Erm, yes, it can

[debsdowner] 15/10/2018 10:14

niggle is right a Department store orders the stock well in advance they aren't set up like BooHoo who constantly change their ranges week by week.

This company is a dated model too late to change some shops will survive under Ashley or Philip Green but only after administration or a CVA,

Shareholders will see all their investment wiped out.

Just in too -

Superdry massive profit warning



DEB's summer profit warning not factored in yet in the most recent TU, still to come imo.

Can't go much lower now

[owenski] 15/10/2018 10:10

Sears bankrupt - just in;



Change Sears for DEB's, same dead, debt bloated business model.

CVA on the way imo.

Will fall to the 7-8 level today too much bad news out now the company will be losing sales as the rest are, no one will buy winter clothes in warm weather.

[ignoble] 15/10/2018 10:07

Was most likely a few years back when clothing was manufactured in the UK
Quick phone call to your supplier and they could change production very quickly if demand changed.
Now , by the time product is ordered in China , then manufactured and shipped over , it is way too late
and the opportunity has passed.

“Too easy a cop out for some retailers imo.Tbey should factor the weather in and change their ranges quicker”

They do, they buy seasonally adjusted ranges up to 9 months in advance. For an accountant you really are clueless!

Unseasonal weather costs almost all retailers. Companies like Top Shop, Boo and ASOS keep what is known as ‘greige’ with suppliers, to be coloured up and cut at the last minute.

Retailers with heavy winter wear, those with brands, shoes etc don’t have this luxury. These necessarily slower retailers all suffer.

Next will have fast fashion departments which work closer to the market but it’s simply not possible to run the whole business like that.

But you ought to know this right?

Qantas reminds me of the knight in Monty Python.

Stop losses will be triggered at 8p causing a collapse

[bouka1] 15/10/2018 09:23

Fat farting odey ashley scared to short more

There are no profits for shorts until they close.

The fact they haven't points to the fact they are banking on not having to close as a prepack administration is looking more likely. In that scenario it Ian written in the contract that shorts are able to receive 100% profits

[diku] 15/10/2018 09:20

Q...any more research left to do here?...jasper kreppers still in selling mode...

[excell1] 15/10/2018 09:18

Debs doing o.k. ..Shorters get over it.

[tim 3] 15/10/2018 09:18

Only a few weeks ago was fighting to stay above 10p now that seems a distant memory, shorters calling all the shots I bet there are some obscene profits being made on the short side, murky business though.

[only who?] 15/10/2018 09:16

There was a snow alert for Scotland over the weekend. DEB expected to warn of shovel shortage impacting on profit.

CVA is a definite, documents sure to be ready to be distributed. Without credit insurance there is no other choice. This will trigger an inquiry into why directors spent £140m cash when macroeconomic conditions were bad and getting worse. The directors should be disqualified in my opinion.

[bouka1] 15/10/2018 09:05

8p breaking ...miles away

[owenski] 15/10/2018 09:05

CVA coming imo, dying business model with chronic overheads

[bouka1] 15/10/2018 09:04

Tout...tell us ..when....

You are right, 5p is coming.

There is no demand for the shares and shorts will flood the market
