Bad news have a habit of coming in 3s....

Just wait till the 1st half results come out of UK companies in July...lots of trading weakness ahead of the EU vote...CEOs will have a free ride this year blaming the EU referendum for the weakness...

Dead money for a few months until the next trading update.

British summer looking like a non event which is bad news.

Think if we do have a major correction in the general market before end of year then 300 - 320p would be a good price to get in...and if Christmas don't pan out then 270 - 280p early 2017....anybody think that special divi is a signal that going forward the divi could be readjusted?...it was just a sweetner to cushion the blow of bad news...No Advice Intended...

M&S new store layout fails to impress

High street stalwart Marks & Spencer (MKS) has failed to win over analysts with a new store layout in North London.

Haitong Research analyst Tony Shiret retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and fair value price of 450p on the shares following a shake-up of stores by new chief executive Steve Rowe. The shares rose 2.7p to 351.4p yesterday.

‘The biggest issue is the effect of taking out most of the fashion forward elements from women’s wear and replacing them with some much more basic products,’ he said. ‘This takes out most of the aspirational element of the offer in our view and takes clothing in the opposite direction to food.’

He added that repricing ‘is not accompanied by any overt or more discreet price message’ and ‘the price architecture, which has clearly been compressed, is not very clear in our view’.

‘We are pleased that Mr Rowe is not hanging around here. The whole offer will be more appraisable when autumn/winter product allows us to judge the balance of fashion within this new setting better, and generally when the product development reflects his long-term view. Currently this store is in danger of widening the gap between the positioning of food and non-food in our opinion.’

It's gone ex Divi. 16.5p paid out in July. Obviously no idea if they'll be another later in the year until results.
