Germany economy set for sharp slowdown:

FRASERS announce a £70 million share buy back but the shares fall near 7% and I can only think shareholders would prefer the money to be spent differently or are concerned over the disposal of cash on worries over the future of the business.

Wrong! Mks HY results 10 November 07.00. That’s over 6 weeks.

Daily Mail comments section:

"Rose of the Dales, Leeds, United Kingdom, 13 hours ago

I agree with everything this article states. It is a very worrying sign imo that this is allowed to happen. Government should be acting to protect companies like Morrisons. We as a country seem to becoming more and more vulnerable with our infrastructures being sold off to none British businesses, who then dismantle them, load them with debt and then sell them on. Who ends up paying for all this but the British taxpayer, in benefits and loss of tax revenue. These companies are not investing in Britain but are hell bent on making a profit for themselves, without a care for this country and its people."

This was part of the downfall of DEBENHAMS which many didnt expect. Debenhams was bought out by private equity then delisted from the stock market, then private equity sold off DEBENHAMS freeholds and did a lease back of stores. DEBENHAMS was then listed on the stock market private equity made a huge profit. The high rents made the group unsustainable and it was only time when DEBENHAMS went bust.

Daily Mail in campaign to prevent private equity snapping up our retailers;



This isnt just private equity buying up retailers many of our companies being snapped up by foreign investors on the cheap due to low interest rates.

News in 2 week, top end of expectations

[debsdowner] 04/10/2021 13:10

Hi Gonzal, yes strap in the bid activity has helped push up MARKS and there could be furrther upside in MARKS.

[neilhumphreys] 04/10/2021 12:50

Debb’s we’re all waiting on the edge of our seats with our investment strategies in the air!!! Will you retain your target of £2, or will you lower or increase it??? My accountant is waiting!!

BERENBERG RAISES MARKS & SPENCER PRICE TARGET TO 215 (200) PENCE - 'BUY'

[gonzaloalves] 04/10/2021 10:10

Strap in, 200p coming

[debsdowner] 04/10/2021 10:04

Bid news:


Sainsburys rises this morning due to bid speculation and the target possibly Sainsburys. The continued bid speculation will help prevent a collapse of MARKS share price and has helped the increase in MARKS early morning

The guy near the top in TYPOs stockchallenge for the month of October has both TESCO (reports Wednesday) and NEXT.

M&S is a mix of the two

ALDI to hire 15000 extra workers for Christmas work, its workers get paid far more than the Big 4 Supermarkets thus putting pressure on the other supermarkets to raise their game and costs:



It will be a fight for market share this Christmas like never before due to multiple factors, driver shortages problems in the distribution and butcher sector and labour shortages.

[debsdowner] 04/10/2021 09:54

Retail Gazette says the big four supermarkets have already lost 2 billion of sales to empty shelves, so its likely other supermarkets in the sector have lost sales as well. I say that as Iceland has already complained of empty sheleves and MARKS havee had to close a number of their French stores unable to provide fresh sandwiches and various products

[netcurtains] 04/10/2021 09:00

Large rise in French Connection this morning.

[pierre oreilly] 04/10/2021 09:00

Ang on, the price is up 2p. Debs price target of 200p but crashing before was obviously after it had first risen, and she forgot to tell us that bit. So 200p at some stage but crashing before and going up before that. Spot on Debs, you're a genius.

[neilhumphreys] 04/10/2021 00:03

Hahaha))))) That is funny Debb’s!!! Always a belly laugh before bed!

[debsdowner] 03/10/2021 21:53

Humpty, I dont think its wrong to call you a clown if you talk like one or act like one with respect. By the way the word "ducky" doesnt reflect the anormouse amount of intelect I input into these debates perhaps you would be so kind to refrain from such common language.

Neither am I an cashier at a gambling arcade you dont actualy know whether I am a holder of this stock at the moment, ever held this stock or trading this stock, your comments are purely speculative.

In the meantime the Telegraph has this evening done an article on inflation which suggests the UK inflation rate to be far higher than the US or Europe which is a real concern for households, interest rates and a potential property crash.

[neilhumphreys] 03/10/2021 21:14

PO hi, It’s becoming clear to most readers here that the subscriber Debbie is by all accounts a cashier at a gambling arcade and lots of time on her hands, which she fills by endless derogatory notes on the advfn site, all of which indicates a schizophrenic personality.I don’t believe she has any stocks at all. I suppose we should sympathise.

[neilhumphreys] 03/10/2021 20:45

Debb’s ducky, Shocking comment on my post, absolutely outrageous harassment “ contradiction in terms you clown. LOL”
Calling names is hardly the way to conduct business madam! I’m appalled!

[debsdowner] 03/10/2021 18:01

PO my long term price target is no different from long time price targets from most anaysts, if you read the analysts notes they give a rough time scale when the target should be achieved and in the shorter term the share price can still fall. My price target of £2 should be achieved by Christmas and if it is I am inclined to raise it to £2.25-£2.50 dependant on trading report after Chistmas.
