@leonidas

That is quite a short term view.

I dont think M&S is going to £4 or £5 but £2.50 to £3 is reasonable to me. Its a brilliant brand and better known than Sainsburys on the world stage. The food quality is very good and I feel its a good company to invest in.

Pensions and institutional slower money dont act that quickly. M and S is a slow burn barring any takeover talk.

Theres going to be a dip this week, if its to 150p so be it, its 10p, naff all

A mere 1.1p up,they tried 170p but did not work.Tomorrow there is only one way street and it will be south.Anyone thinking a bid is on the to MKS is a dreamer.Sainsbury well lucky for the holder and no offer there will ever mature and I do not see any further rumour on MKS takeover.They was never be any rumour and the rumour fade the share price will fade I am still for 150p by the close of Friday but it can arrive even quicker.Best sell if you are still long as you could seriously burnt.Speak tomorrow after the close.Have a nice evening.

mitchy, I admire your enthusism but its near 5 years since MARKS had a share price of £4 and a lot longer than that since it was higher and things have changed since then. Supermarket used to have margins a lot higher than 5% and the discounters like ALDI amd LIDL brought them down.

As such profits from the food sector lower and that means lower takeover prices. If a takeover came at the moment I suspect it wouldn't mean a doubling of the price at the moment, but who knows the markets do sometimes surprise.

I have to say I woudn't rule a takeover of MARKS management now seem to have their eyes on the ball with buying out other brands and partnrships.

I supect any potemtial bid would come at circa £2.50 to £3 initially and then dependant on the offer some other bids come in like they have with MORRISONS.

MARKS is a buy at this price imo and I usualy get my calls right.

Shoppers are returning to high streets again, with weekly footfall now at around 50-60pc of their pre-pandemic levels, according to a real estate company based around London's West End.Shaftesbury said the retailers in its buildings have reported improving trade, as tourists visit London from other parts of the country.The improving footfall has also affected the recent rent Shaftesbury was able to collect. In the three months to June 30, the company collected 51pc of contracted rent, compared with just 40pc between January and March this year.Chief executive Brian Bickell said: "We expect that early autumn will see a return of the West End's exceptionally large office-based working population, which has always been an important contributor to our local weekday economy."He added: "The momentum of the last four months is providing a sound platform for the continuing revival of the West End in the important months ahead, leading up to Christmas and into the new year, and the prospects for a return to pre-pandemic patterns of life and activity."At the end of March, 8.4pc of Shaftesbury's sites lay vacant, but by the end of July nearly half of this space had been filled and the figure had fallen to 4.6pc.....

Pre-pandemic M&S was trading between £2 and £3 a share.
So any bid should really be DOUBLE a NORMAL years share price.
So a bid should be between £4 and £6 otherwise they should be told to
get lost. An investor probably is going to get £4 anyway PLUS DIVIDENDS for X years

PO No the thread header changes when I think sentiment has changed and my specialist analysis and research indicates as such!

In the meantime I did say last week Sainsburys could be the next bid target prior to the MAIL article.

By Samuel Indyk

Investing.com – Shares in Sainsbury 's (LON:SBRY) were trading higher by over 12% on Monday morning after the supermarket chain looks set to become the next target of private equity.

The Sunday Times reported that private equity giants are circling Sainsbury’s with a view to a possible bid worth more than £7 billion.

Morrisons Deal
The news that Sainsbury’s is reportedly in the crosshairs of US private equity groups follows a similar story for Morrisons (LON:MRW), who last week accepted a £7 billion bid from Clayton, Dubilier & Rice.

Morrisons had previously accepted a bid from Fortress Investment Group worth £6.7 billion.

Fortress said they would be considering their options.

Apollo Global Management – who is said to be interested in Sainsbury’s – remains in talks to join the Fortress-led consortium that is bidding for Morrisons. The Sunday Times reported that any involvement in a deal for Morrisons could make a deal for Sainsbury’s impossible.

On Thursday, the Fortress-led group said a further announcement will be made in due course.

Sainsbury’s has yet to comment on the most recent rumours.

However, last month on a conference call post trading update, Sainsbury’s Chief Executive Simon Roberts indicated there were no concrete offers for the firm.

“If we had anything to update on, we would be updating on it,” Roberts said.

At 09:35BST, shares in Sainsbury’s were trading 11.4% higher at 328.5 pence per share. Morrisons shares were trading higher by 0.1% at 291.4 pence per share, above the 285 pence per share offer from CDR.

Debs, as the thread starter, I'm sure the thread header changes constantly to reflect your holding, or lack of.

Do we know why it got to £1.72 just a few weeks ago and even with the good news in the trading update the market currently does not think its as good as it was just a few weeks ago without any update?

Sainsburys up 9.4% on next potemntial bid target.

Have already edited my header on this thread yesterday to give an indicative buy out of MARKS at circa £3.

"This is a scary video. I knew the situation was bad, but listening to Colonel Kemp made me realize the true extent of it. I hope the people who put Biden in office are happy. They are at fault. None of this would have happened without them."

PO, I did say it was a bad time to short MARKS and the share price would head towards the £1.70 level this week.

Hope Leo's has closed the short.

M&S sweets are better then most sweet shops. Really love the chocolate peanuts and chocolate raisins.
Kids love Percy pigs.
...and that caterpillar cake.

Note how marks will revamp the store with a higher ratio of food sales. (They must be deluded!).Simples. Identify the Uber profit area, and expand it. It's hardly rocket science (not that that is too taxing).Try their food if you haven't. You'll pay more than tesco and Lidl, but less than Waitrose. And everything is better quality than the decent Waitrose quality.

Sainsbury's could be on the shopping list of private equity outfits as the race to buy Morrisons highlights the attractiveness of the big supermarket chains to investors.Last week the buyout firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (CD&R) won the backing of the Morrisons board for its £7bn offer to buy the UK's fourth largest supermarket chain. That bettered the £6.7bn already on the table from rival suitor Fortress.. Yahoo Finance

Taliban & Mks in the same sentence?! I see only good news with thousands of UK troops sent back home in pork pie sales !

Anyone with a short on this equity is going to get their account seriously damaged, there is no doubt Mks share price is volatile that’s the behaviour of a recovery, however we are fast travelling toward autumn and retail therapy!
