[philanderer] 14/12/2018 20:57

No , I'm -7% for 2018 :-(

[diku] 14/12/2018 20:50

Has anybody made any money this year?...

[philanderer] 14/12/2018 17:32

Not much better at the close , just three blue ones.

Poor week for MKS -6.5%

Good weekend everyone.

I've got twenty one out of twenty two red this morning.

Shocking looking portfolio

[diku] 13/12/2018 20:30

Where is Mks in the FTSE100 table?...surely a risk of getting demoted...that Bollinger band has widened so time for a kick back up...

[philanderer] 13/12/2018 18:00

[diku] 13/12/2018 14:44

So is 280p now the new 300p ceiling price?...

Debehams on brink of collapse

We went to designer outlet mall at York at weekend.
Pre Xmas sales 40 to 50% off.... anyone with a nose for a bargain knew these were real mark downs, not the fake sales to get you in the door. GAP sale 40-50% off and given voucher on floor, if buy 3 get a further 15% off at till... sign of desperation...madness!
Very busy car park but sale prices must be punishing the businesses

Company outlook announcements in Jan/Feb going to be interesting

UK retailers suffer 'worst November in living memory', warns Mike Ashley

[philanderer] 13/12/2018 12:40

I think something's afoot with the Justin King appointment . He ran the MKS food division very well.

[blueteam] 13/12/2018 12:14

With a weak pound this could easily be bought from a investor aboard. With 11% shorted any whiff of a bid could see this reverse very quickly. A lot of high street gloom is already in the share price, at some stage this is or will be a great buy.

[debsdowner] 13/12/2018 12:09

Mike Asley struggling with House of Fraser, Bonmarche, lose money and shares halve, Superdry warn yesterday, Primark warn and to top it all John Lewis sales have declined 4 of 5 weeks lately.

The High Street in a very bad place made worse by BREXIT. Also warnings housing prices to fall.

[philanderer] 13/12/2018 12:06

These two seem to have called it..


5th dec Goldmans sell tp 260p
20th nov Investec sell tp 240p

Listening to an interview with Justin King on Radio4 this morning and the question of splitting the food and clothing divisions was put to him . He said that he wasn't joining MKS until the new year so couldn't comment on any possibilities that may be viable until he'd had a good look at the current state of the company.


Poor numbers from the high street again today from SPD and BON .

[freedom97] 13/12/2018 09:09

With the share price being so low, I wouldn't be surprised the Chinese are looking to snap up MKS, lets hope they wait until share price is much higher before making an offer.

[diku] 13/12/2018 08:54

But only if Q goes on a spending spree at Mks!...

[blueteam] 13/12/2018 08:22

Shorts may well close to xmas and give this share price a boost. £3 - £3.10 going into next year but then will all depend on the festive results. Don't expect to much but do expect on the + and surprise the market on the upside.

M&S, and others, will only recover when they stop trying to con people into buying third world quality at UK high street prices.

"Ex-Sainsbury's boss Justin King to join M&S board"

Mr King said he looked forward to supporting chief executive Steve Rowe "in the turnaround that he is leading" at the retailer.
