Good to see the Irish acquisition. I am sure they can quickly enhance the online range and grow the business quickly.

Good opportunity to pick up some cheaper today after a sale that I imagine was only made to cover an increase in CGT.

Did it really take you 2 months to formulate a response...

[strawberry alarm clock] 24/9/2024 09:27

Yeah it*s all about the number of people in a shop and nothing to do with margins you dopey tool

Judging by the high number of customers at my local store I believe trading to be excellent, so much so, that we might just receive a higher or even a special dividend later this year.

Chubb
Ha ha yes it's a bit mysterious the lack of chat regarding this share.
When there is a large jump / share reaches a 12 month high I review my holding.
Must admit to being unsure whether to take profits or let it run on....
1250 would be next barrier, then 1400.
Dividend is much better than is generally quoted, due to special dividends, so think I may just let it ride for now.
Good Luck

thankfully the shops are busier than this board!

Was thinking of buying in this morning but the last month's softening of trading didn't bode well.
Long term DNLM is strong. A well managed business but I wonder how much further this has to fall

These Broker downgrades are often a good time to buy, and if we’re holding a share and wondering whether we should be, then the bounce on the Broker upgrade is a good time to get out.

Admittedly it was a few years ago but Investors Chronicle researched all the Broker buy and sell decisions in a full year. The results were eye opening! The Broker sells went on to perform much better than the Broker buys. What’s more BATS was THE share with the most Broker buys and it ended up THE very worst performing share in the FTSE100 that year!

Another useful guide is the share price behaviour for a few days following those Broker downgrades and upgrades. So if Dunelm keeps falling there might be something in it. But very often the share starts to recover the next day with the gains continuing.

I hold Dunelm and bought on a big dip last year. It’s a fabulous Business and according to those who work in our nearest store, a great Company to work for too.

I decide on trading and Results updates and if a share I’m holding is going down while most in the sector are going up, as that’s often a warning sign, and not on Brokers who get it wrong more often than not.

Dunelm Group plc posted solid Interims for the 26 weeks ended 31 December 2022 this morning. The Group reported solid sales growth of 5% to £835m, with total sales 43% higher than H1 FY20 (pre-pandemic). But margins took a dip given some payback post-Pandemic and also the inflationary environment, PBT was down 16.6% to £117.4m. Guidance remains unchanged for now, net profit is set to dip a little in FY23 and obviously the consumer outlook remains unpredictable. Share price also has positive momentum and is into the 6th month of a rally. Valuation is no longer particularly cheap with forward PE ratio up to 16.9x. DNLM is a solid growth and generally profitable retailer worth owning for the long run, but there are macro clouds over the sector near term....from WealthOracle
