Domino's Pizza Share Discussion Threads

[indieman] 28/9/2007 07:48

Excuse my ignorance, but I thought most of the Domino's in the UK were franchise operations.

Newsnight Report show what a dodgy company this really is. Looks like they will have a whopping great fine heading their way.

Discusting Business practice

Having just seen how this company makes it profits grow at such a fantastic rate on the Newsnight programme tonight; I am glad I don't hold the shares.
Where did they get their strategy for ripping off their employees to extent that they do? Bradly Hardacre in the 80's series BRASS would be truely proud of them!
It is a shame that they have to do business in this way as their pizzas have always tasted so nice, but now I think the bitter after taste will be too much for anymore.

Content yourself that we were right. At least 220p held today which may be some consolation for any bulls remaining.

[techmark] 25/9/2007 15:50

Not surprised to see the fall. Anybody that read my posts over the last few months will know why it has fallen. When it was at 280-300p, it was ridiculously overvalued and ripe for a correction, unfortunately very few people wanted to listen to me back then.

[latifs100] 25/9/2007 15:12

220 now.. why the fall?

[indieman] 24/9/2007 07:22

Friday was the first close below the 240p level on the way down and could well be indicative of a further fall to the 218-220p level. Support below that kicks in around 200p.

The 200day EMA is now under threat for the first time in a year and the 50day has turned sharply down for the first time ever. The situation is to some extent dependant on the general market, but it's not looking too promising for DOM at the moment. A retreat to 200p is a distinct possibility.

They have now spent £4million on the share buy back. They had 9m odd in cash. Does anyone follow that bit in the interims under the cash flow heading?
"As a result of the recent capital reconstuction a subsidiary company has over £150m of reserves available"
I dont know what it means

clarky,

I hope you didn't throw them too far.

In my experience (ca. 40 years), charts are more use than fundamentals in panicky markets. That's probably fortunate for Domino as the p/e ratio is nearly 40.

[hybrasil] 30/8/2007 08:54

I did suggest here GBRabout 8 weeks ago (which holds the swiss franchise for Dominos). At that stage they were 35p bid. They are now 55p bid and still very cheap.

[clarky5150] 30/8/2007 08:45

Cant fall out with you on that indieman however i have thrown my charts out of the window due to the erratic trading worldwide these last weeks. I think resistance and supports are far less of an issue in these trying times. Its back to fundamentals for me.

[indieman] 30/8/2007 08:39

The 200day EMA, which is flattening out, is acting as a cap on the price and the 50day EMA as support. Thus resistance is lowering towards the current price and support is dropping away from it.

The volume pattern is strongly suggestive of weakness in that the volume peaks coincide with down days, and low volume with up days. The one attempt to break 260p was a day of relatively low volume.

Unless and until Domino breaks through and remains above 260p, the downtrend will remain in place.

Morning all. Better start today.

[indieman] 24/8/2007 14:30

Ok. Thanks anyway. I used not to have this problem but that was before I reloaded both the Firewall and the ISP software. I'll poke around the latter.

Thanks again.

Sorry - I let my subscription lapse when the introductory period expired - I now use ZoneAlarm and AVGFree which don't have the facility.

[indieman] 24/8/2007 08:25

gbb,

My recent version is much less intuitive than previous ones and I can't find Parental Controls. Any ideas?

[gbb483] 24/8/2007 08:11

If you use Norton Security you can add the advertising site URL to the parental control list ( advfn dot uk dot intellitxt dot com ).

[indieman] 24/8/2007 06:27

Anyone know how to block the green double underlining thing that infests ADVFN's threads? It is infuriating.

[hybrasil] 23/8/2007 23:52

They have now spent the guts of £3m on share buy backs. These guys have been genius s the whole way up. I just wonder if they have this one right.

[indieman] 23/8/2007 13:33

I thought Domino's was a franchise. That surely renders point 1) and possibly point 2) irrelevant.

I don't see how cancelling shares would make them more of a takeover target, but then I'm not much on that sort of detail.

[gbb483] 23/8/2007 10:52

1) Aren't interested in establishing new outlets in new fields. 2) Aren't interested in taking over any other similar company. 3) Are interested in tidying up the books to make themselves more attractive to takeover.

[offtheradar] 22/8/2007 22:16

propping the price up?

[mikeprior] 22/8/2007 18:15

With today's share buy back, that's 1m shares that DOM have purchased and cancelled during August.

Any opinions on their motives ?

[indieman] 21/8/2007 17:48

The obvious downside target is 220p where there is considerable support.

The price is being squeezed between the 50 day EMA which is declining but higher than the current price and the 200day EMA which is below the current price but, from a rising trend, is now almost flat.

A great deal depends on how quickly and in what manner the current volatility is resolved. That is still a toss-up.

Could we about to see the £2.30ish level once again if we drop below £2.40 with the current stock market conditions as they are !!
