Jefferies backs M&S turnaround plan

Marks & Spencer (MKS) may have reported falling profits last week but Jefferies is backing the high street stalwart after being reassured by its five-year turnaround plan.

Analyst Caroline Gulliver retained her ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 420p on the stock after spending two days with M&S management at their post-results roadshow.

She said she came away ‘reassured that the five-year turnaround strategy is on track and that despite some challenging markets M&S has plenty of options to improve and grow the business in the medium term’.

Gulliver said the company could ‘win market share in both clothing and food’ despite the weakening consumer backdrop as ‘chief executive Steve Rowe believes M&S is on track to becoming a more capital efficient, market-share winning business’.

At the time of writing on Monday, the shares traded 1.2%, or 4p, higher at 337.5p.

Not sure where you get the worst month for the FTSE100 since January 2016 Phil, with the whole of 2016 plus February 2017 showing a lower index than where we are now. I agree with the 'whacked' though; 2% off the index this past week and a commensurate 2% off my portfolio too. Let's hope for better things in the coming week.

Well this month was the worst month for the FTSE100 since january 2016.

My portfolio has been whacked too , still showing +7% for the year but has been much better.

Good weekend everyone.
