Typical company share buy back programme....buy shares when the price is high, instead of when the share price was under 200p, which was not so long ago.

The Company intends to cancel these Shares. So in theory, the share price should rise.

The UK supermarket industry is set for significant changes in 2025, driven by evolving consumer expectations, technology advancements, and economic shifts. Leading retailers like Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Marks & Spencer (M&S), Waitrose, Aldi, and Lidl are adapting to maintain their market share. Here’s what to expect for the future of UK supermarkets.


Sainsbury’s: Balancing Premium and Affordable Options:

Sainsbury’s will focus on blending premium offerings with affordability. Key strategies include upgrading the Nectar loyalty programme, continue integrating Argos into hybrid stores, and expanding plant-based food ranges to meet growing demand for vegan and vegetarian products.

Tesco: Leading with Innovation and Loyalty:

Tesco will strengthen its position as the UK’s largest supermarket by leveraging its digital and physical presence. Tesco is expected to expand its online grocery services, enhance its Clubcard loyalty programme with AI-driven discounts, and focus on sustainability goals, including reducing food waste and adopting carbon-neutral practices.

Asda: Competing with Discount Retailers:

Asda will continue to focus on providing value to price-conscious shoppers. Its strategy includes competitive pricing to challenge Aldi and Lidl, expanding convenience stores in urban areas, and introducing more plastic-free packaging to align with eco-friendly trends.

Morrisons: Promoting Local Sourcing:

Morrisons’ unique advantage lies in its vertical integration and direct sourcing capabilities. In 2025, the supermarket will continue to focus on promoting locally sourced food, expanding its online presence through Amazon partnerships, and maintaining competitive pricing to appeal to cost-conscious shoppers.

Marks & Spencer (M&S): Expanding Online Grocery Market:

M&S will build on its success in the premium food segment. With its partnership with Ocado, M&S aims to dominate the online grocery market, while focusing on healthier food options and reaching key sustainability milestones like reducing plastic use and carbon emissions.

Aldi and Lidl: Disrupting the Market:

Aldi and Lidl will continue to grow aggressively, capturing more market share by opening new stores and expanding their private label product ranges. Both retailers will focus on providing premium-quality goods at affordable prices, while investing in sustainability initiatives such as refillable packaging and carbon reduction programmes.


Future Outlook:

In 2025, UK supermarkets will focus on combining technology-driven convenience, eco-conscious practices, and value-driven pricing to meet changing shopper demands. Major players like Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s, and Aldi will continue to adapt to maintain their competitive edge, offering customers a more personalised and sustainable shopping experience.

Look at Next, run by Lord Wolfson

Even if you didn't know the Next share price. You could tell by reading the annual reports that Lord Wolfson is 100% focused on delivering returns for shareholders.

Another example is Ryanair, run my Michael O'Leary.

maybe you haven't noticed

the share price doesn't make any progress in 30 or 40 years

it certainly looks like the company is not working in the interests of shareholders

In real terms for the QIA to have broken even the Sainsburys share price would need to be around £10 with a dividend of circa 50p per share.

Investing in many UK companies, in real terms and often even in nominal terms the investor loses money each and every year therefore what is the point of investing in UK companies and in the UK in general?

I guess they see more of the same


Underlying gibberish in every results

More new shares created every year to pay the directors

More "one off" expenses every year to pay for so called cost savings

A share price unable to even keep up with inflation, decade after decade after decade


IMHO, the only reason for a Sainsbury listing on the LSE is to serve the company


IMHO, it is definitely NOT to serve the shareholders.

Dan Coatsworth, investment analyst at AJ Bell, noted that prior to the transaction, QIA owned 14.2% of the supermarket chain.

"The Middle Eastern investor has a reputation for backing financially strong companies across a wide range of industries. While it invests with a long-term view, like any asset manager it does make changes to its portfolio from time to time. QIA has been trimming stakes in other holdings of late, including Barclays, Shell, Vinci, Iberdrola and Accor. In contrast, it has been increasing positions in the likes of OQ Gas Networks, Kingdee International Software and Haleon," he said.

"QIA first invested in Sainsbury's in 2007 and at one point owned approximately a quarter of the group. Sainsbury's share price last year bounced back after a difficult period, helped by the company making good strides with its food-first strategy. Like rivals Tesco and Marks & Spencer, Sainsbury's seems to have found the right recipe for success and has been fighting off competition from weaker rivals Asda and Morrisons to take market share.

"QIA might feel that now is a good time to trim its stake in Sainsbury's, selling into a market where other investors have become more interested in the supermarket. The fact it managed to offload a large chunk of shares at only a 2.8% discount to last night's closing price implies there was decent demand.

"QIA selling down following a string of upbeat results and trading updates from Sainsbury's would suggest the investor sees the supermarket now entering a new phase of its life. That's often the point at which an investor also reassesses their commitment to a stock, so selling down shouldn't represent any concerns about the health of Sainsbury's. However, the fact the stock has fallen below QIA's placing price does suggest that some investors have been spooked by the news, wondering why the biggest shareholder is reducing its position at this point in time."

Traditional supermarkets battle Lidl and Aldi for market share by KATIE WILLIAMS:


If you look at the share price history of the listed UK supermarkets, you will see that none of them have ever recovered their pre-2008 valuations. A big reason for that is the growth in popularity of Lidl and Aldi.

The German discounters first arrived in the UK in the 1990s, but have grown enormously in popularity over the past decade and a half. They now have a combined market share of 18.1%, according to data from Kantar World Panel.

This has hit Morrisons and Asda the hardest, according to Russ Mould, investment director at AJ Bell. He points out that both companies are “saddled with debt after their respective takeovers”.

Mould adds that Tesco and Sainsbury’s are holding their own when it comes to market share, but suggests this doesn’t negate the impact the German discounters have had on their margins. He says: “Their margins are not expanding and remain in the low single digits, [revealing] how competitive this business really is.”

Changing consumer habits have also created a more challenging environment for traditional supermarkets over the past decade. The UK has seen a shift away from the big weekly shop, as households instead opt for shopping little and often.

This change in behaviour means consumers are more likely to visit several stores over the course of a week, shopping around for their favourite products and the best deals. The cost-of-living crisis has only accelerated this trend, as highlighted by a recent research report from the House of Commons Library.

The report writes that “46% of adults in Great Britain reported an increase in their cost of living in March 2024 compared to a month earlier”, with 89% pointing to increased food prices as the main reason for this. It adds that 49% were shopping around more as a result, while 38% were spending less on food shopping and essentials.


Have UK supermarket stocks delivered decent investor returns?


Nevertheless, it isn’t all bad news. We’re now just over halfway through the year, and Tesco and Marks & Spencer have posted decent returns so far in 2024.

Both stocks are up by around 5% year-to-date, broadly in line with the overall FTSE 100. Tesco paid a full-year dividend of 12.10p (a yield of 3.93%). Meanwhile, Marks & Spencer’s 3p dividend represents a yield of 1.03%.

Sainsbury’s share price performance, on the other hand, has been pretty poor. It is down by around 14% year-to-date. The company announced a full-year dividend of 13.10p (a yield of 5.12%), but it is unlikely to be enough to entice investors given the poor share price performance. They can earn the same yield by simply putting their cash in the bank.

Chris Beckett, head of equity research at Quilter Cheviot, says the supermarket remains “considerably smaller than Tesco, and in the high-volume, low margin world of food retail, scale is a critical factor and the ingredient for success”.

Commentators also point out that Sainsbury’s non-food business (including Argos) has experienced a slowdown of late, and is letting the side down.

Mould says: “It’s beginning to have a lot of similarities to the Marks & Spencer of old, running a two-pronged business with one engine constantly spluttering. Marks & Spencer has finally fixed its engine problem and is now racing away, which might give some hope to Sainsbury’s situation.”

If interest rates fall later this year and inflation continues to slow, supermarkets will be hoping to see shoppers putting more items in their baskets. This could create a tailwind going forward.

Hav - A couple of years back I posted that Sainsbury's share price would fall to 150p which almost everybody on this thread laughed at. The share price fell to 170p, I wasn't too far off!

At the time, in the mid 180p's I doubled my holding in Sainsbury's.
