It's very hard to see the rationale for nil-cost options (other than from the Directors' point of view, obvs!). It's clearly just a way of remunerating Directors in a way which may be more tax-efficient and flexible for them but it fails two important tests for options of providing incentive and 'aligning the interests' Directors and shareholders. It is, quite literally, 'something for nothing'.

Having praised the management previously, I was rather less impressed to read about the huge number of nil paid options they had awarded themselves while we shareholders have no dividends and have lost a huge chunk of our capital on paper or if we have to sell at present.

Covid scares etc retail shutdown could affect greggs I guess

[taurusthebear] 13/10/2020 18:22

Because £14 was the ever lower high?

[optimistic2] 13/10/2020 15:18

Why the sudden drop??

[hibberts] 10/10/2020 08:32

Remember the stock market looks 6 months ahead. I have been buying over the last week looking for a good long term return.

[philanderer] 09/10/2020 19:07

Another good week , GRG +12%

Hi Mayar, yeah I wouldn't say I have done a great job with my timing so far on this stock. The graph suggests it will get up to 14, maybe a bit above, but if it follows the same pattern as previous then that might be the top until the next cycle.

Hi Lyndon B, wdik having done well for myself buying near the bottom of the last bounce in early August I bought some more in the 14.40s (and held) and have just noticed that is at resistance / support on the chart. Doh. I am happy to stay on the side lines and wait for a higher low and higher high, before buying a few more. I still think this is a well run company and has great potential as a recovery play.

I think montyhedge is the idiot from the gsk thread, simpleton, will probably choke (hopefully) on the sausage roll, which would be fine dining for him anyway.

[lyndon b] 07/10/2020 10:24

Hi Mayar, It was also broken in August, yet the price in October went to near £11. Do you not think this is a classic stage 4 downtrend with a series of lower highs and lower lows, all the way back from June?

[mano300] 07/10/2020 10:22

Greggs share price should hit 1400 this week

[mayar] 06/10/2020 23:02

According to my charts, the downtrend line from February at about £12.70ish was broken today. The share price may back test the brake out level tomorrow, but I would expect a modest recovery from here. Modest because Greggs are discussing cuts to jobs and hours with the unions and good news will be limited.

[montyhedge] 02/10/2020 18:55

Thought I would try a Greggs vegan sausage roll, see what the hype was all about, yuk, 90% must be salt to give it some kind of taste.

[bouleversee] 02/10/2020 18:06

Well done, Phil, for not listening to the wetblankets on here. Greggs ARE adapting and if things go against them, it won't be their fault.

[philanderer] 02/10/2020 17:55

Not a bad week for GRG +113p ... good weekend everyone.

[cl0ckw0rk0range] 01/10/2020 18:24

Just because the are following through with existing expansion plans doesn't necessarily mean anything, if anything they need to be adapting not just full steam ahead.Sub 5.
