No you are no alone - not holding at present but still following the thread and company.

It seems I am not alone..... I was getting a bit lonely on here :-)

it's about time it went to the next level 65>75p as all signs are good and we should be due some summer spending news soon me thinks.

[bladeboy] 10/9/2010 12:00

I have googled but can't find any news. A few people are picking up stock though and it doesn't look like the mm's have much to sell. These are very tightly held. Watch out for a tree shake, either that or it will just continue up in a straight line as the buys come in. Personally would prefer a slow climb, it tends to have more chance of being supported and therefore sustained.

Some positive movement yesterday :-)
Not sure if it's a positive sign or a coincidence, but last year the final results were released on 7th September, so maybe people are jumping aboard before their release.

A spread of only 1p, that is unheard of on this stock :-o

just to try to drum up some conversation on this thread, as a quick tip if you have 5k to play with, which other sector is the one to go for? Oil? I'm sure BP has made some people a years income on the recent fluctuations. Banks? no confidence since the collapse of RBS. Pharmaceuticals apart from Glaxo some small fish look to worth a punt. Techs? could be on the move again with the NTT thing stirring up the sector just need to jump on the right one. Building? little stagnant but time and price could be right, Hmmmmn.... comments ;-0)

Burberry also going well......

Agreed, summer can be a more profitable season than xmas for the luxury goods sector. £1 - £1.50, It's only a matter of time, the patient will be rewarded.
IMHO

I also see in the news its the Middle East spend season, apparently this lifts all luxury goods as the guys and girls all come over to London to get away from the 50oC heat and spend some cash in blighty. All good news for third quarter sales, not just TFL but all luxury goods lines.

Here's holdin' for £1

[bladeboy] 13/7/2010 16:43

Spread has closed up a touch...

Looks like other luxury businesses are also performing well :-) (U.K. luxury fashion house Burberry PLC (BRBY.LN) Tuesday said its new fiscal year started strongly as it posted a 27% rise in first-quarter sales)

What valuation would you put on the stock on the basis of the results and balance sheet?

I am unsure but the results do indicate resilience for the brand which is very encouraging for future years. A one million profit is probably well within grabs which at a conservative forward PE of 10 implies a 25%+ upside for starters.

Also had a little write up in the Metro!

I think it's just the markets in general which are holding this back. Maybe if TFL weren't doing so well they would be dropping like so many other stocks.

King of Bling Theo Fennell launching low-cost rangeBy Money Mail
Last updated at 8:25 AM on 29th June 2010
Comments (0) Add to My Stories Decking yourself out in Hollywood-style bling has just become a little more affordable after jeweller to the stars Theo Fennell launched a low-cost range.
The new silver collection will start at just £70 - a bargain compared with the top-end gems worn by celebs such as Naomi Campbell and singer Lady Gaga that cost tens of thousands of pounds.
Details of the new range are being kept under wraps until October, but judging by its signature pieces, such as a diamond-encrusted skull ring, it is certain to be flamboyant.

Fan: Naomi Campbell is one of many celebs who wear Theo Fennell's designs

The move to attract more shoppers is part of an overhaul spearheaded by Fennell, who is known as the King of Bling for his over-the-top designs.
The designer was parachuted back into the business last year just 18 months after being ousted. Former chief executive Barbara Snoad was also drafted in to help stem a decline in profits.
Their efforts have resulted in an unlikely recessionary comeback story. Annual losses narrowed to £350,000 in the year ending on March 31 - an improvement from the £3.3m loss recorded the year before. Analysts are pencilling in pre-tax profits of £500,000 this year.

One interesting trade yesterday which was deferred....25k shares at 40p when the offer was 38p. Let's hope there's a run up now to the results and if they're good enough, who knows where we'll end up :-)

from todays Independent

Theo Fennell

Our view: Buy

Share price: 35p (-1p)

Theo Fennell, the posh jeweller, is due to post its results next week. Yesterday it announced the acquisition of a 20 per cent interest in a design consultancy set up by its founder and namesake. Yet its share price is down about 25 per cent since the start of the year, which strikes us as rather odd.

Mr Fennell returned to the company he founded last year, bringing with him his design acumen, and we have been seeing steady signs of improvement in sales since then. The most recent trading update in January reported good demand for Fennell's wares.

The economy has been improving as well, of course, but at the same time, it would be unduly bearish to overlook the company's efforts. The valuation is also undemanding. The stock is on 16.2 times Seymour Pierce's forecast earnings for 2011. That falls – yes, falls – to 11.3 times on the numbers for the year after. These metrics leave Theo Fennell undervalued compared with similar luxury goods makers, so buy.

Interest seems to be picking up, there are quite a few trades in these today. Results coming soon maybe?

BB looks like the MM's are getting a little short of stock. Price ticked up today.

[bladeboy] 04/6/2010 10:24

A little bit of interest has been shown in these during this week and the back end of last week. More trades going through than usual. Sales in the sector appear to be improving, hopefully for TFL too, good timing methinks.

I bought a few more on Wednesday and the trade didn't show up on advfn, rather strange?
