Thanks philanderer. Are you long here? If so, maybe an idea to cut your losses and buy back in if and when theirs more of a positive up trend in place? Best of luck regardless.

[philanderer] 22/5/2014 09:17

Good possibility that you`re spot on mrmomentumt. Would have been a great short from about the third day after the float for sure.

Luck with your trade.

Not sure philanderer. Looking to open a short position myself. Especially if their is very little info on profits available. I suspect that's partly the reason its drifting lower because of the uncertainty.

[philanderer] 21/5/2014 16:33

Info very thin on the ground for this one. May have to wait until end of july for the interims.

Late share price action to the upside today , could this overhang be out of the way now ?

[mrmomentumt] 21/5/2014 12:23

Anyone aware what the PBT figure was last year and forecast this year? Thanks

Smashed that.... nearly 2 million in the trash bin at 156p ... has to be an institution taking one hell of a loss !

Maybe that 120p call isn`t going to be too far off ?

A disaster of an ipo .

[philanderer] 20/5/2014 10:38

And a new low.... 979 shares sold at 158.4p

[philanderer] 19/5/2014 15:06

and 160p has gone..... selling at 159.6p

Way overvalued at ipo price of 191p which it has never traded at .

[philanderer] 19/5/2014 10:47

Falling knife, someone`s taking a big hit on these.

Record low sale at 160.05p just printed.

Fair value 120p ?

And a 23,000 @ 160p sale , serious losses getting booked.

[philanderer] 16/5/2014 09:09

Panic... 5,236 @ 162.12p 'sell' ;-)

20,895 @ 162p. ( record low )

[philanderer] 16/5/2014 08:36

Another all time low at 8:14 am :-D

3,500 @ 163p 'sell'


Numis` 'buy' call on 9th april with a 220p target looking not the best they`ve ever made.... Beaufort`s made the buy call at the same time when the share price was 176p.

[philanderer] 15/5/2014 15:47

Still haven`t hit bottom by the look of things. Very poor.

Selling at 164p now.

BAT pledges to help small stores comply with display ban

[philanderer] 13/5/2014 09:16

A couple of nice buys this morning , plenty of shares available though.

[philanderer] 07/5/2014 09:19

If we could just break and hold above this 170p ;-)

[philanderer] 02/5/2014 10:23

Sector being recognized ;-)

John Lewis is to open a convenience store for the first time this autumn - a trial for "click and commute".

[philanderer] 02/5/2014 10:14

Good to see a little buying interest but 170p on the bid still being hit every time so far.

[philanderer] 30/4/2014 15:01

mmmmmmm.. another 1 million dumped at 165p - just who is selling ????

[philanderer] 29/4/2014 19:45

Fingers crossed Exbroker, signs that the big selling is easing off .... hopefully ;-)

[exbroker] 29/4/2014 14:59

I have topped up as well.
The index funds will have a decent number of these to buy in June, if the sellers are finished they could get back to the issue price, what a result!!

[philanderer] 29/4/2014 10:55

And I`ve bought a few more @ 168p.

[philanderer] 25/4/2014 17:23

Just the 500k shifted today then ;-)

[philanderer] 25/4/2014 13:29

Should be good for another 5p off the share price .


In economic data this morning, UK retail sales volumes unexpectedly rose by 0.1% in March, according to the Office for National Statistics, better than the 0.4% drop expected by analysts.

Analysts at Barclays said that the data improves the outlook for household consumption. They said: "While we believe that earnings growth will be measured in the coming months, the increase in real earnings and strong job creation are boosting household revenues and further increasing confidence."

[philanderer] 24/4/2014 17:06

Relentless , around 2.5m sold today

[philanderer] 24/4/2014 16:13

Still being dumped , another 2 million today. Numis 220p target is looking a bit far away ;-)

Bit surprised there`s been no holding RNS issued.
