From earlier, 'Goodmans' forecast 350. Is that one the back of his place on Strictly come dancing given a SEVEN pence rise today. There still is mileage on Marks.

Expect imminent bounce to 420p


Barbecues and salad sales soaring, high margin stuff for mks

My own straw poll (go to several local stores) suggests the stores are very busy in food and I hear costs are being slashed. Positive imo esp at this price.

[diku] 06/6/2016 08:24

Didn't Goodmans say 350p target?....it sure got there last week....Goodmans rules the World!!...

Whats your point...there the ones with all the money these days,dont knock it!

[r ball] 03/6/2016 21:01

why don't they split the company into two: food (good) and Clothing and pensions and leases (bad). then in a few years time liquidate the clothing bit. you only have to go into the clothing section to realise youneed tobe over 60. avoid.

[philanderer] 03/6/2016 18:34

Just been reading that JP Morgan note , it's on FT Alphaville . ....those superbears say they're even "cautious on the food side"

[flaton2000] 03/6/2016 17:17

Wouldn't worry about it, share price has been here before,if your trading on stops, whats the problem... it happens, if your a long term holder an excellent divi....these are like the RIO Tinto of the shopping sector, last to get hit, probably first to recover.And if your a shorter, well done you!

S..S....D...Day!

Very easy to buy when everyone loves something, feels safe being part of a
consensus and crowd- but can be one of the worst times as often marks a top.
MKS near £6 there was not a bearish view in sight.

Far more difficult to think for yourself and have the guts to go against
the crowd, it can be very profitable if the business concerned is
fundamentally sound, that should be IF in capitals as an important proviso.

[careful] 03/6/2016 16:14

all of these shares seem to half at some point.
the days of buy and hold are dead.

[essentialinvestor] 03/6/2016 16:05

phil, good summation.

careful, you do like your contra plays )
had some SL. on the dip, which in fairness could turn in to a bigger dip.

[careful] 03/6/2016 15:46

a good day to buy.
brexit/non farm.

topped up today with MKS/SBRY/RR.

cut price deals.

[philanderer] 03/6/2016 15:29

Non farm payrolls knocking sentiment across the board this afternoon after a better MKS this morning. Sideways trading for me until this autumn statement regarding the property portfolio 340p - 360p rangebound. Can't see where the positive drivers are at the moment.

I think you'll find you are the one fueling it Eisler. If I was you, i'd just go quiet for a while.

[eisler] 03/6/2016 14:50

libertine - honestly, I don't care what your opinion on the matter is and I am not sure why you are choosing to continue to fuel the argument. I had an opinion, albeit a long shot and it was wrong. What else do you want me to say? What is it with the castigation culture on this board? What else do you want me to do? Why are you continuing to fuel this?
