BIG INVESTORS ALWAYS HAVE INFO THEY ALSO HAVE MEETINGS WITH THE COMPANY FACT

why have the board of Tesco not clawed back the bonuses on false lies and figures
several bank employees have now had bonuses and pension pots withdrawn

if what you say is fact then if a was a director tell lies make up figs and then take the cash then resign.
simple is it not

I've followed shares where the directors are constantly talking to the various bulletin boards and newspapers etc. but they are often just talking it up without any substance, I'd much rather that they only post news when there rally is news as seems to be the case here.

I think you're completely wrong saying that nobody invests because the directors are silent, investors, especially the big boys, invest on fundamentals not gossip.

As for penalising the former directors I'd guess that is a problem of legalities and if the authorities should come to the stage of prosecuting and a finding of guilt then will be the time to claim back any payments made in the past, that too doesn't come for free so there will be legal costs.

you can not invest in any company on no info and lewis has given non for 31 months
that is fact
he uses the dreaded word , encouraged . that word means we have not got a clue

YOU CAN NOT INVEST IN A COMPANY WERE THE DIRECTORS ARE DEAF AND BLIND
DIRECTORS WILL SAY NOTHING LOWER THE share price MORE FREE SHARES THATS WHY THEY ARE SILENT

[portside1] 27/2/2017 13:50

van yes you point out the facts . so why has no money been clawed back and pension pots withdrawn fro prev directors .

on april 12th results profit 1.3b
but will say again silence destroys a share

[vaneric1] 27/2/2017 13:45

Look at the dates and what was happening, the shares were in freefall five years of bad news topped off with the profit figures scandal when he came on board that has been arrested, it's now hovering while the traders play, waiting for the next news.

As for the directors buying, if they did and they made a bit of dosh on the ups and downs you would be shouting "Insider dealing"

Please stop saying 'is' when you mean 'his' it makes for difficult reading.

[portside1] 27/2/2017 13:33

lewis is a dud

[portside1] 27/2/2017 13:32

you mean they have no faith in what they do . but like free shares


just have to wait for agm and ask questions on certain issues of figs

[vaneric1] 27/2/2017 13:17

Directors are employees, they don't have to buy shares any more than the floor staff do.

[portside1] 27/2/2017 12:55

will say this I would turn it round in weeks .the booker deal stopped and use any spare cash to buy back and cancel the shares ,
that would be great for m/c and sp

stopping the div as saved over 3.5b lewis is only interested in one thing is bank balance and will soon be gone to the next milking cow

I think you need to look a little closer at the timings and the history before you lay all the blame at Lewis's door porty.
I bought in in December 2014 at £1.87 then again in August 2015 at £1.83 in November at £1.70 in January 2016 at £1.47 in April 2016 at £1.79 in June 2016 at £1.49 in July 2016 at £1.60 more in July at £1.62 I top sliced on October 5th selling at £2.03 and sold some more on October 7th selling at £2.11 so I've made a sizeable gain already and could still make a fair profit on my remaining holding if I sold at today's price.

I'm holding now as I expect it to rise to £2.50 in the not too distant future.

All the price and image damage was done before Lewis took the reins, if you're in a loss position it's down to your own timing.

Take a look at the history here:

The optimism was overdone on all supermarkets. They shot up like they had turned a corner just because less customers were leaving them. That is a good thing of course but that alone was never going to justify a 50% rise. They can't raise prices due to competition and that's the main way they would be able to jump back to the former glory days.

[portside1] 27/2/2017 10:31

sail . notice did not post that in September 1st 2014 share price was 252p then dropped on lewis as CEO

[portside1] 27/2/2017 10:25

SMARTY DO YOU MEAN , the invisible turn around and the bonuses paid out for the invisible turn around its a mirage .
but the money given out in bonuses are not invisible

[portside1] 27/2/2017 10:21

31 months of nothings from a very poor CEO .to spend 3.7 b and then take 18 years to just get back the cash you invested ,the silent CEO ON ANY OF THE ISSUES

HE MUST RESIGN OR DOES HE HAVE ANY MORALS ON IS FAILURE


SILENCE

[portside1] 27/2/2017 09:47

[portside1] 27/2/2017 09:36

still falling on the silence but remuneration working hard to make it look good to pay millions in bonuses to the directors in may .

directors to have big bonuses . in may

[portside1] 27/2/2017 09:20

facts , Tesco 1st September 14 share price 252p
fact s Tesco feb 27th share price 190p

since LEWIS took command the share price is down 24%
we have fallen back under lewis we are down 24%

great progress I think not . and still no sign of any improvement

booker deal is bad news for holders and will be even worse when the watering down of the deal to go forward by the mergers results on the deal

[vaneric1] 25/2/2017 09:36

Why would you do that? He's only posting news stories from the national press.
On the story itself it's a bit of nonsense but that's what newspapers(cough) do to fill their pages.
Tesco actually do a lot more for the homeless and poor than these two do gooders will ever manage..

I think I'm going to block Johnwise

Tesco stops customers purchasing £200-worth of food for the homeless

Shoppers trying to purchase tinned food for charity told they were 'buying too much'

"Never happens in Sainsbury's"
