It's not just NEXT. It's a growing problem...Consumers are broke!

So NXT shares pay a dividend and special dividend worth £2.10 post 9th and 10th April albeit payable at a later date?

[sogoesit] 19/3/2015 18:51

£60 is a weird number; if it were to become so last year in the next year it would more likely be £55 based on previous years' history... is that too many "years" :-)

[tr65] 19/3/2015 11:26

I think it'll recover a bit before everyone decides NXT is so last year and the share price heads down to £60.

difficult to say marko but the news is now out (sell on the news).
uptrend is still intact but might drift to 7250'ish.
i am looking for a good price to accumulate.

however, this is a quality company with quality management and it appears risky for me to be out of the stock especially in a newly growing economy and earnings increasing.

Good luck

Next is probably an excellent short now. I do think it is a great company though. But it has a very high rating which doesn't allow for any mishaps. At best the share price will go nowhere but more likely down for a while yet.

OT.Lads keep an eye on oxs today. Very likely it will bounce back. (you're welcome:)

£4.00 @ £50 a point = loads of money. Wow

Buyback threshold now becomes £68.27 for an roi of 8%pa
The chairman's statement indicates that even buy backs are in doubt as the share price is growing at 14% pa (last year).
No mention is made of the last statement's allusion to quarterly dividends so I guess we assume these are off the agenda as well.
I guess we must be happy with the share price performance alone; leastwise unless the share price tracks back.

However, it was a year of two very different halves. NEXT Brand sales in the first half were exceptionally strong, up +11%, whilst the second half was relatively disappointing and up just +5%.Work in progress?

[sogoesit] 10/3/2015 11:34

I've been waiting to accumulate but usually only do so near it's buy-back threshold, currently £67.
Current trendline support looks like £70 so, if there's a (mild) sell-off, that would probably put me in the mood for an accumulate purchase.
I havent felt any "spring" in the air yet and the crocuses failed 3 times so far this year to "break-out"... although 9degC is starting to get above the winter resistance line and so hoping boxerdog's weather forecast comes through!

[boxerdog1] 10/3/2015 03:59

just £5 to go but with easter falling early and!!! forcast to be a scorcher it will do wonders for spring/summer season sales so £80 before the quarter out wont be far adrift.

Sales at the megastores format going great guns its reported, encrouching on a market which previously we overlooked this will be a real driver going forward with overseas adding support.

[nicksoj] 24/2/2015 11:00

Is £80 possible before the quarter is out?

[randomambler] 09/2/2015 09:25

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the extra special dividend announced last week. Another 60p with the prospect of more to come! This pushes NEXT into high-yield territory, potentially, and I've written up a few thoughts here:

[sogoesit] 07/2/2015 16:06

nickoj, It depends if, by perception, he can strike fear into the markets.
If so, there will, probably, be a short term opportunity to buy.
The issue is whether there will be a loss of credibility in the eurozone and whether that leads to a cascade effect to the rest of the PIGS!
All imv.

Is it entirely possible that a libertarian Marxist can actually derail the global markets with a contribution of only 1% of global gdp?This share price should be at £75+

Next V'S ASOS - which one would you buy?

[nicksoj] 23/1/2015 16:31

Agreed Mike. It's QE time!!! You know the rules...

Wax your board well. Ride the wave, keep an eye on that shark...

[mike24] 22/1/2015 10:31

Sod the reverse psychology. Come on NXT, £75 please....

[hectorp] 18/1/2015 14:54

Inevitably, Next will fade, as shall Tesco for example. I appreciated what you said by the way, about China etc.
China holds 4 trillion in US dollars, when they decide to mess up the USD, or boost gold, they can play that game whenever they decide is the right time.

I assume that the market quartile who shop Next , still have disposable income.
Same applies to M&S. When they don't spend it, or a new guy comes to town ( eg Lidl and Aldi in food) then these are game changers.
