Yes, have both (small) bullish and bearish positions. Aim to get out next year!

If breaks 190 could go back to 170

Probably not a surprise - "Tesco executives’ trial collapses as defendants acquitted".

If you, like I, had sat through all of Mr. Carney's grilling by the committee you would know that he was talking about what the committee had asked for i.e. "What could be the worst case scenario in all circumstances."

He gave full and extensive answers which covered all possibilities but the media and others have nit picked the bits that suit their own positions.

Tesco performs U-turn over staff payment scheme

adg, it's probably more to do with people earning £16k for a full working week and then being told by every Government spokesman that this is a wealthy country where people are doing great and the average wage is between £26k & £28k.

Not for people in retail it's not, unless of course they're at the top of the tree.

UT closing trades of 22m at 197.55

[vaneric1] 01/12/2018 12:06

What's going on with the share price monitor on here? Trades at £2.12 posted after close but the buy and sell down in the £1.96 range.

They will start to get into the same grief that BHS and others had if they start to get into those places, the problem former occupiers had was high rents and extortionate business rates.

We have an empty BHS shop in central Gloucester if they want one. :-)) and around the corner a Debenhams that's on the brink.

[philanderer] 01/12/2018 10:44

Lidl taking over the empty BHS store in the Chimes shopping centre uxbridge. They already have another store half a mile away :-O

Brexit Plan B: How are supermarkets preparing for a 'no-deal' and is there really a risk that fresh food will rot at the borders while shelves run dry?

[adg] 30/11/2018 12:28

seriously cant believe what I am reading of late.....so many whingers - lucky to have a job, lucky to be allowed time off, lucky to be offered a sharesave scheme, lucky to be offered hours to suit themselves..... I feel sorry for Tesco's having employees like that

Message to the whingers;
Try being self employed / contractor as I am and have been for 22years
-zero sick pay
-zero share schemes
-zero pension
-zero hours to suit me
-zero holiday pay
-zero rights
-zero say
-zero long notice period

no wonder this country is broken.....

Mr Tenpercent said "AMZN is destroying itself by moving out of technology into bricks and mortar."


What a load of b*ll*cks! They may be opening 'brick and mortar' stores but they are NOT moving out of on-line retailing or as you put it 'technology'.

[mrtenpercent] 28/11/2018 15:09

AMZN is destroying itself by moving out of technology into bricks and mortar.

I buy Simple Soap and my favourite fish soup online from Amazon. I know a bit about distribution costs because I was the estate manager for 3 big retail chains in my career. AMZ is unequivocally losing money on every grocery delivery I've ever had from them. To say nothing of other sales - I just bought a Brother labelmaker from one of their Market Place suppliers, the batteries which were supplied with it were duff, I complained, got a 100% refund, no need to return the otherwise perfect machine.

Parts of the AMZ business are good. But the company as a whole is heading for serious problems. In the UK there is little they can do to compete effectively with established supermarkets and the Germans will eat them for breakfast. The best thing that could happen for existing UK supermarket shares would be if AMZ pile in, last about 4 years, then give up and go. Like Walmart did with Asda.

Crypto - Rebranding is called a CON job, just to be able to charge more money for the same product and therefore is completely immoral and dishonest.

The pound hasn't really gone anywhere for the past 18 months and therefore the 20% increase in the prices have gone stright to the directors pockets as massive increases in their pay packets.

[alphorn] 27/11/2018 10:00

Not sure what has prompted this fall? Have bearish positions open which should expire for a full gain next month.
