The board's so bullish it chopped the final dividend by one-third just 7 weeks ago!

[rossgr230279] 10/7/2013 12:15

Out also, 12% + div in 4 weeks I am happy with. May get to 365p but may go back down also. I am trading to get a better return than ISA,s so onwards to find the next 5% riser......

I am out too, had similar experience to Lennonsalive, complete
disaster if you can't get your supply/ stocking right in this type of
business.

[plastow] 10/7/2013 09:36

wait for the sellers to take there profits,, far play but after a slight pull back on the share price expect more up side,,gap to fill

[skinny] 10/7/2013 08:54

Yes I'm out for now +41 plus the dividend.

Quilarvium 4 Jul'13 - 11:57 - 1894 of 1903 0 0

My buy target is 2.80p, I'm not expecting a good QTR 1 and if this is the case we may all be able to pick some up under 2.50p.
That is around where they were lat year without the dividend cut and multimillion pound investment that they have three years to deliver....three years?
Nice work if you can get it IMO.



WRONG shorts most be wiped out ?

when r the results

[quilarvium] 09/7/2013 07:05

Looks like a glorious day for 2.80p.

[quilarvium] 08/7/2013 14:00

That's probably why LEGAL & GENERAL reduced there holdings by 20%.They have gone from holding 5 million shares down to 4 million shares.......now that's confidence for you!??

[lennonsalive] 05/7/2013 18:55

Ended up ordering a Sat Nav online from Amazon as Halfords were out of stock of a few models, the website doesnt tell you this until you are at the checkout.

Very poor, will not use and waste my time again.

[quilarvium] 05/7/2013 11:17

Yes I'm sure they have said that before when it was at 4 pounds and they thought it was on its way to 4.50?Then it fell to 3 pounds?????2.80p is a fair price .

[3dwd] 05/7/2013 09:20

July 5 (Bloomberg) -- Says expects a uptick in LFL trading
vs -7.5% comp, cycles to +10%, car enhancement to +2%,
Autocentres to +2%.
• Guidance for gross margin down ~150bp, opex up ~5%-6% will remain unchanged, should start to deliver some early gains: UBS
• PT 375p
• 1Q due July 10: Bloomberg Data

It's been drier than average this year in the UK and very good cycling weather where I live. I've still not bought in, though, as I still think they are slightly overpriced until they can show some decent results with average weather.

[sicker] 03/7/2013 13:23

Doing much better than most shares to-day. Discounting the ex-div drop,the share price is UP ;-)

[rossgr230279] 01/7/2013 16:28

nice move today. because of the dividend?

[andysandy] 26/6/2013 20:40

Pish posh apple sauce

[quilarvium] 26/6/2013 20:15

Andy old bean.As brave as you may self seem you undoubtedly would fail most miserably. Not only is one richer, handsome and most eloquently witty one is far too strong mentally and physically for your rather shameful IQ to comprehend.Reduced dividends continue as does the bad weather!2.80 is coming, only the smart and the 'strong' know this.Ps Andy Pandy would be more appropriate one thinks?
