Be more CAREFUL what you write! ASOS results were yesterday! Not today!

Absolute numpties on here there really are!!! Sick of idiots!

[careful] 12/10/2021 16:29

Todays poor results from ASOS probably boost MKS.

These here today gone tomorrow online retailers selling disposable cheap clothes are just a fad.

MKS will come back strongly.

debs: We all know that. However three things are more or less certain:

a) Driver shortage - Media love to pump up a story miles higher than reality.
b) Weak retailers will hide behind news stories.
c) Strong retailers will do miles better than expected.

I guess costs and staff costs going up will affect the price-sensitive end of the market like Aldi Lidl etc.
I'm not sure M&S customers will care much if they have to pay a few pence more.
In fact price inflation might increase M&S profits.

Meat producers have warned of spiralling prices this Christmas triggered by a surge in the cost of carbon dioxide after a rescue deal was struck to protect the flow of the vital gas.Industry leaders are bracing for a possible fivefold spike in the cost of CO2 - essential in the production of pork, turkey and chicken - following an agreement to keep manufacturing plants owned by CF Industries running over winter. ...

Incredible insight and research Netcurtains! Where did you find out all that information??? Did you sell at 192p and buy back low? I bet you did! It’s so great being surrounded by remarkable investors.

[netcurtains] 12/10/2021 09:25

Looking at the statement made in August I dont think supply issues could have deterioted that much in a month sooooo

this is what they said:

However, assuming no further Covid-related restrictions on trading, at this early stage we expect adjusted profit before tax for the year to be above the upper end of previous guidance of £300-350m. We will report half-year results on 10 November 2021 at which point we will provide more detailed financial guidance for the balance of the year.

What’s the betting someone will ask this question again-soon!

Thick as two short planks!

[debsdowner] 11/10/2021 20:35

Its MARKS and Spencers interims as stated above, now is that clear?

[neilhumphreys] 11/10/2021 18:14

Who’s interims be that for Debb’s?? Is it the till point company and arcade emporium of yours??

[debsdowner] 11/10/2021 17:51

Neilhumphreys interims !

Half Year results 26 weeks ended 26th September 2021 will be released on the 10th November 2021

Now is this clear enough?

If not try specsavers

[neilhumphreys] 11/10/2021 15:20

What results are those Debb’s???

[debsdowner] 11/10/2021 15:14

Humpty, no before the event.

In the meantime both ASOS and BOOHOO now lost over half their value from their highs. Online is startimng to slow and margins decline. Too much competition in retail.

High energy prices and paperwork on imports now a concern.

MARKS share price will be rocky before results on 10th November.

[neilhumphreys] 11/10/2021 14:38

Debb’s I’m sure you predicted the demise of just about everything after the event.

As soon as the property is sold and rent added to P&L at 7-9% the writing is on the wall. Debenhams and Woolworths were both raped and discarded like rats corpse.

Venture capitalists have a lot to answer! But that’s life!

[debsdowner] 11/10/2021 14:29

Humpty, ask QANTAS who predicted the demise of DEBENHAMS years before it went bust?

[neilhumphreys] 11/10/2021 14:03

It would not surprise me if research found most of the human population were found to be in some form insane. Most of the news is mental torture. SKY news is now the news of the world or daily star, BBC is more like Labour Party HQ where politicians are on a permanent magic roundabout with guest stars zippy and bungle! I generally stopped listening and reading news 4 months ago and I feel so much better just living in a bubble.

[neilhumphreys] 11/10/2021 13:21

I’d say white powder is next on this list of her forecasts ! Iv heard about these them there arcade places!

[neilhumphreys] 11/10/2021 13:16

Essentialinfestor, Debb’s predicts stuff all the time on this there that chatty board. They are all changed predictions and always (except one) after the event. She therefore is 100% accurate.

[essentialinvestor] 11/10/2021 13:15

Some of the greatest traders like Paul Tudor Jones, who is a multi billionaire,
get it right about 60% of the time - where they make the big money is in
maximising a winning position and cutting losing ones.

[pierre oreilly] 11/10/2021 13:12

The strange thing Ess is why some constantly update their targets after the event to try to appear as if they have some superhuman ability which no one has?

Everyone can predict the correct direction about half the time with average luck.

[neilhumphreys] 11/10/2021 13:08

So physical and digital is all failing and soon boohoo’s and ASOS and marks all dye , do i understand you satisfactorily ?

You now predicting boohooing will go bust ??

[essentialinvestor] 11/10/2021 13:08

Anyone who claims they can call a share price direction accurately 100% of the time is
an utter fantasist.

I'm sure there are none of those who post here.
