Marks And Spencer Share Discussion Threads

There is no such a job as ‘market maker’ it’s just some fictional person who makes miracles on the market. You need potential buyers and sellers to make a market. The rest is absolute nonsense.

Marks will make its own way through this little blip caused by the Chinese.

Looking good for MKS. Got a good position with MKS. Will not add except if goes sub 79p. Safety first now. Cash is King, at moment.Fingers crossed.

paul, its possible the market makers trying to push the price up prior to results then mark it down heavily tomorrow, this is a ploy which helps them make money.

[debsdowner] 03/11/2020 09:53

In your dreams, MARKS warned if there was a second lockdown things could be much worse. They may gain on food but its doubtful that will make up for losses elsewhere.

The outlook statement is the most important as the analysts have forecast a loss.

[paulof2] 03/11/2020 09:48

Been a lot of doom and gloom on here lots of people expecting a big sell off that hasn’t come.

By my calculations we will have a big expectation beat tomorrow and I’m expecting the share price to adjust accordingly.

robot,

Beatles song, "money can't buy me love" and Ryan Giggs arrested over assault needs to listen to the song :

[debsdowner] 03/11/2020 09:19

robot,

Cannot remember how much Ashley lost but in the tens of millions on Debenhams possible a lot more.

As for Johnny Depp he is another Johnny simpleton you don't take the press to court with all their resources. One or two have but most don't risk it.

Humpty dumpty is a proper crackpot.

Associated British Foods (ABF.L), the owner of Primark, said it will be temporarily closing stores around Europe due to pandemic-related lockdown restrictions, a move which will lead to a loss of sales of £375m ($483m).It said all Primark stores in the Republic of Ireland, France, Belgium, Wales, Catalonia in Spain and Slovenia are temporarily closed, which represents 19% of its total retail selling space.It added that assuming a one-month lockdown in the UK is passed by parliament this week, 57% of its total selling space will be temporarily closed from 5 November.READ MORE: UK retail sales rebound continues in August with fourth month of growth"Our estimated loss of sales for these stores, including the stores in England, for the announced periods of closure is £375m," the company said, adding that uncertainty about further temporary store closures in the short-term remains.... Yahoo Finance... a bit of a pointer about certain aspects of retail.

Casey everyone knows where Jammy Dodgers are made by Burton and your mummy should know as well.

shoesize, robot has proper wiring not like Humpty Dumpty who cracked up when someone hit him over his head with a spoon.

In the meantime Primark has said it will take a hit due to the next lockdown:

Pandemic aside - although M&S survived the last one and two world wars after, so I really don't think they're going to the dogs. For a company that's been around for 140 years the current pipeline represents some of the biggest changes in their history, and none lose sight of either 'Make me' OR 'Save me' money.

There's Plan A that everyone seems to be overlooking - making their stores more self sustaining and reducing their carbon footprint. Once the dust settles after the current situation, and we all appreciate life a little bit more, M&S will be at the forefront of driving the changes in main high street retailers along with an attitude to preserve our planet for the future. I see 'self sustaining' as major expense reductions and a more competitive edge. Hell, they're already recycling baguettes into garlic bread.
Add to that their move to a much more digitised operation model with customer communication / analytics at their fingertips. Banking, insurance and energy as additional income streams.
Buying half of Ocado was a shrewd move, since not only do they get half the Ocodo current business overnight, but they have one of the strongest and well tested delivery models ready to go without any expensive lessons along the way.

If you ask me - anything below £1.50 a share is a steal, and that £1.50 includes a 50% stake in Ocado thrown in for free (those of us who held shares before paid for it & no need to get sucked into buying inflated Ocado shares).

The ONLY thing they're doing wrong right now is not pushing their premium foods through the Ocado network either hard or fast enough at a time when the country are using home shopping far more.... if they could just get their 'Christmas done for you' shopping sorted that would be a massive boost as they're missing a trick right now.
But neither partner will want to sleep on this for too long - and when you see M&S food with Ocado delivery really take off you'll be wondering why there was any bickering at all in 2020.

There are retailers....... and there are M&S retailers - A slice of 140 year old British history for under £1 ?? - Sign me up for some more as I'll just keep accumulating.

Many will be caught out here in my view as the lows have come and gone. Only upside now. Do your own research and don’t listen to the strange folk on here. I am so happy Ocado going back up! JV going exceptionally well with M&S we could see sales on Ocado top £3b Per annum! Fantastic and well done all, wish I was in M&S!

I can see these are going nowhere only down .
I have been researching robot ic1 posts and see he is so right about these stocks .
Has he got insider information ?.

I noticed he made a packet from Debenhams ,how lucky he is .Also a big profit from these as well .

I will be taking note on his advice on marks stocks .

I am looking to make very large investment shortly with one of my pension pots .

Its a watch and see time .

I had been watching Martin lewis the financial guru , but Robot ic1 seems so clued up

Will log in again shortly .
