Sign of how weak London is ... there are only 10 shares across the entire spectrum of London markets which have risen more than 10% today!

Indeed. I have a wife capable of cooking.

I wouldn't eat the rubbish if they were giving it away.

Given its a bot, I suppose it doesn't eat - pasties (hot or cold) or otherwise.

Greggs bakery in profits warning after sales fall


High Street bakery Greggs has warned of lower than expected profits this year after reporting falling sales.

The chain said like-for-like sales, which exclude newly-opened outlets, were down 4.4% so far this year.

It blamed bad weather and "under pressure" consumers, and said it did not expect market conditions to improve in the short term.

Markets are closed next Monday ... and they can be nervous ahead of long weekends.

[leedskier] 29/4/2013 07:50

I hope it will rise this week cfc ... circa £3.25 seems possible. LLOY's numbers (tomorrow I think) may provide a clue.

[cfc1] 29/4/2013 07:46

Leeds - whats your predictions for RBS this week - Q1 results Fri. I predict AT LEAST £3.3 by COB on Fri.... good results, a lot of money ALREADY set aside for historical bad mgmt etc. Your view?

[leedskier] 29/4/2013 07:41

This site provides good corporate newsflow.

I may add a button for it later.

[jwe] 29/4/2013 07:38

Quite a lot in the papers over the w/e about RBS & LLOY returning to profit this quarter.I assume a lot of that is already in the share price but it could provide a boost this week to both if results do not disappoint

To describe the moves on the FTSE100 last week as 'sharp gains' when it is some distance below where it was a not so long ago, is sophistry.
