Ok I'm prepared to buy £1000 worth of Greggs at this price, bringing my holding closer to 250 shares. I'm going for the sterling recovery trade, even if no deal b-rexit with boris. I can't see the pound staying below 1.3 for long.

Here’s everything you’ll find on Greggs’ autumn 2019 menu:

xd tomorrow morning for the 11.9p 'interim' and 35p 'special' dividend.

Banks and housebuilders traditionally bear the brunt of the Brexit drama and so it was again on Tuesday, with blue-chip lenders and brickies losing ground before tonight’s crunch vote in Westminster.

The possibility of a snap general election in October spooked shareholders in UK-focused domestic stocks.

Jolly good (re moniker). My postal address is Beaconsfield though bizarrely my MP is Cheryl Gillan (with whom I have a continuous correspondence). What a mess it all is. Goodness knows how it will all end.

[philanderer] 02/9/2019 21:06

bouleversee , she's fine with it , she has a good sense of humour and knows I'm exactly the opposite ;-)

Looks like my MP Dominic Grieve will be deselected by the Conservative Party at a general election as he's sure to vote for anti no-deal tomorrow.

[bouleversee] 02/9/2019 20:36

Philanderer -

If I were in your shoes with a wife like that, I think I might dream up another moniker.

[this_time_its_different] 02/9/2019 20:03

Haha, I wish.

Can you share the next winning lottery numbers whilst you are looking into the future?

[this_time_its_different] 02/9/2019 19:37

General election is indeed on, I predict a boris-farage pact and a boris-farage win with a no deal brexit on the 31st. Sterling at 1.1, UK domestics all worth buying then.

Indeed, £160,000 in equity in Greggs is something the directors would have. I want to build a bigger position in Greggs, I actually neglected it for US tech stocks (which have served me well). But with such a weak sterling, I thought I might buy some Greggs.

[philanderer] 02/9/2019 19:31

Hi ttid, no she's too young for that and has a business to run. I married a rich woman ;-)

Looking like a general election on october 14th then ?

8000, je-sus christ, she might as well retire today. I only have 194, but looking to top up for brexit.

[philanderer] 02/9/2019 18:55

I have just under 700 but my wife has over 8,000. She's been adding on every results day twice a year for over fifteen years. Never sold one.

[this_time_its_different] 02/9/2019 11:47

How many shares of Greggs do you all own? Are you topping up?

And they know it's not that ridiculous number.

[bouleversee] 29/8/2019 20:09

I think greggs will know how many stores they can roll out without problems and will concentrste on rolling out food which customers find palatable.

[geraldus] 29/8/2019 19:42

Could roll out 500 to 1000 shops without serious problems.The best laugh I've had today.

Market report:

An upgrade from brokers at UBS also boosted baker Greggs.

Analysts at the Swiss investment bank put a 'buy' rating on its stock, up from a previous rating of 'neutral', and bumped up the target price of its stock from 1880p to 2300p.

They also said the chain, which has around 2,000 stores, could roll out another 500 or, at a stretch, 1,000 without serious problems.

The vote of confidence in its stores came a few days after it announced it is working on vegan versions of all its best-selling foods after the marketing coup that its vegan sausage roll pulled off in January. Greggs rallied 4.5 per cent, or 88p, to 2054p.
