Time for James and Harrison to depart!Pigs with their snouts in the trough. They and a lot of Directors knew what was on the cards months ago when there was the large share sell off. Sad that some II's and PI's have been shafted.

must admit that this fad of upgrading smartphones will stop.
Apple are overvalued because of that fact.
just imagine in a few years time.
'apple are launching their latest I phone 345.
yawn..who will care.
Spob and his old phone will become the norm.

American Idiot: well it was a "merger of equals" at 320p, right? The share price is around half of that today, so one might position you can buy DXNS (the old Dixons ticker) which appears to be growing and performing 'relatively' OK, with Carphone thrown in for free!

[careful] 24/8/2017 08:57

in at 160p.
overdone.
dc. are still predicting decent profits after this gloomy statement.

[swedeee] 24/8/2017 08:56

also find it hard to believe some people in the city didn't know about this yesterday..

[spob] 24/8/2017 08:56

Ha, i'm still using my iphone5, bought it in 2012

why, because it still works just fine


which is amazing because i've dropped it on the floor about a hundred times

[5chipper] 24/8/2017 08:55

I know, nearly 7%!

[right honorable lord lucan] 24/8/2017 08:54

So much for the dividend!

[sr2day] 24/8/2017 08:54

Now we know why that plonker Harrison sold a million a month ago.he still has another 4 million though.this will be a pennyshare.

[american idiot] 24/8/2017 08:53

The shareprice will soon be back to pre Dixons / Carphone Warehouse merger at this rate.

Going to research on this later. Perhaps this is a bargain now ?

[supercity] 24/8/2017 08:51

Pretty obvious why people are holding on to their handsets for longer - two years ago iPhones were £25-£35 a month on a decent contract...now when people are renewing (3 phones in my house in the past two months) they are £50-£60...your average joe won't want to spend that much.Haven't renewed any of mine as I am waiting for the price to drop and new phones are not that much different to what I already have

Allowing large US corporations such as Amazon and Ebay to operate on a NEAR ZERO TAX RATE is killing UK based home grown retailers.

Either change the tax laws or switch out the lights

Spot on!

Most of the folk who appease these large US corporations are Tory backers and Brexiteers.

Any comments from Neil Woodford yet

surely he must own some of these. LOL

[spob] 24/8/2017 08:44

Personally i would not be a buyer here at any price.


Liabilities too high plus that pension deficit

a dividend cut or wipeout looks likely in the future

no asset backing

The TRUE pe ratio is much higher when you adjust for liabilities


just my 2 cents

WELL OVERDONE....................

[andysaw] 24/8/2017 08:39

I wouldn't buy at this price

[swedeee] 24/8/2017 08:39

smartypants called it yesterday, well done. was considering shorting it myself to cover my losses but didn't in the end :(

My holding is now so small it's not even worth putting it in something else. Nightmare!

[5chipper] 24/8/2017 08:38

This was Justin Urquart Stewarts 'Tip of the Year' in Jan! Down 70% since... buying opportunity maybe?

[smartypants] 24/8/2017 08:35

No suggestion that the last trading statement was a tad....missleading ?

[falia] 24/8/2017 08:28

GUYS GET YOUR MONEY BACK WITH ANR, MKT CAP VERY LOW

Another example of high street retailer thinking it can escape the inevitable. I'm afraid the retail world has changed, unless there is a dramatic shift in Government tax (business-income) policy to enable bricks and mortar outfits to compete. As much a debate about what kind of town centers we want. Expect to hear about closures in smaller towns. imo

[manics] 24/8/2017 08:16

...I guess the analysts didn't much appreciate the 07:30 con call.
