They`ve been bearish for over 12 months robin :-)

[huntie2] 14/2/2011 14:59

topped up this morning and fingers crossed!

[montyville2] 14/2/2011 11:29

Me too! Every bit of news seems positive but I have a sick feeling just in case I am missing something!

[eddcooper] 14/2/2011 09:53

My gut tells me tree shake. I just bought some more, oh how foolish I may feel tomorrow

[montyville2] 14/2/2011 09:35

Any reason for the huge drop particularly after the broker upgrades?

[philanderer] 14/2/2011 08:39

Altium Securities' feels there is a good chance Domino's Pizza's preliminary results tomorrow will result in another round of upgrades, following its update at the start of the year.

There will be a large amount of interest in the group's outlook, says the broker, including comments on "input price inflation,... lunch time and later evening sales potential, [and] the company's plans for its growing cash pile."

Seymour Pierce have reiterated their buy recommendation, with a price target of 625p.

Good bounce for DOM today on a poor market day. OM usually does well on days like this ;-)

The Old Philosopher...

...if you`re still reading this board take a look at CSR. Just announced a cracking set of results today and will be paying a first dividend. Potential for plenty of growth combined with a progressive dividend policy.

Further share upgrades for Dominos Pizza await

Domino's Pizza UK & Irl plc (LON:DOM) will be reporting prelims to the market next week, and analysts at Altium Securities believe that further share price upgrades lie in wait for Domino's.

Domino's Pizza UK & Irl shares are currently 1.59% higher at 544.50 on a day to day basis as the share price recovers ground lost in yesterday's trading session.

Analysts are expecting that prelims next week should reveal a strong start to the current year and more than likely lead to further upgrades.

The 6 Jan update revealed what a strong end to 2010 the company had (Q4 LFL sales of 10.3%, FY LFL sales of +11.9%).

Altium says attention will be on trading over the first six weeks of the current year (2010 comp.: +11%) and updates with respect to the outlook for:

(1) new store openings - could guidance increase again?;

(2) input price inflation, how well the company is hedged and the extent to which the new commissary permits further efficiency gains;

(3) lunch time and later evening sales potential;

(4) the company's plans for its growing cash pile.

Fair comment Billy. Thanks for PIC

Nobody wants to know about your profits or dividends. You should check out PIC.

I sold my entire holding of 2,700 at 544 on Friday (big bucks for me) not because I think that they are a bad investment but because I have always thought it wise to leave a bit for the next man. Dominos has been a 9 bagger for me in just over 7 years.

On reflexion things cannot be so easy for the excellent management now as they will be faced with rising food costs,rising gas and electricity prices and their typical customer who is living in rented accommodation and is 20 to 35 years old will be having his income squeezed, that said the momentum of 50 or so new openings every year will help, although surely all the prime locations are by now already trading.

My dilema now is what to replace the dividend of £236pa up from around £21(7 years ago) with. Any suggestions please?

[billy bonka] 03/2/2011 21:45

£8 by May? Are you joking?

[jon827] 02/2/2011 19:45

Lol.... not that old chestnut again, I remember that story last year :)

Nick Louth portfolio review in the FT

"...One stock that I regard as fairly defensive did extremely well, and made me the most money. Domino's Pizza, which must have one of the simplest and most reliable business models of any growth company, managed an 89 per cent return during the year. I still see plenty of growth left in it.

"Numis rates Domino's Pizza chain "buy" with a target price of 675p. The broker expects an orderly handover when chief executive Chris Moore steps down in 2012, and predicts a very strong sales update on 15 February with pre-tax profit growth of around 27 per cent and under £10m of debts. "

Excellent :-)

===========================

(PRWeb UK) January 27, 2011

Executive employment agency UK Knack Group has announced that the American pizza behemoth Domino's will create as many as 1700 new jobs this year.

The pizza delivery giant's news comes hot on the heels of its declaring an extraordinarily successful year of trading in the UK.

In its latest gazette, Domino's says it plans to open 55 pizzerias in the 12 months ahead, and that each of those shops will employ 25 to 30 staff.
Releasing the announcement yesterday, UK Knack Group's managing director said, "This is huge news for our recovering economy, and for unqualified school leavers seeking work in an increasingly technological and automated world.
"There's still a great career to be carved out in the fast food industry, with progression through to store and then regional management."

Domino's Pizza created 1700 jobs last year, too, while opening 57 stores around the UK. These included the pizza chain's first on the Isles of Man and Wight. No UK stores had to be shut down, in spite of the recession, maintaining the total number of stores come year's end at 665.

Domino's chief executive officer is Chris Moore, and recently commented that it is great to report another amazing year of growth and that 2010 was a special year for Domino's as it was its 25th year in the UK.

Moore expects that the 28 million pound facility will provide the dough for more than half of Domino's 600-odd stores, and holds the capacity to support the pizza deliverer's intended expansion to 1200 shops within the next 11 years.
The world's second largest franchised pizza chain, founded in Michigan by the Monaghan brothers in the 1960s, now enjoys success world-wide, and its contribution to the UK economy, according to UK Knack Group, is as valuable as any.
