Should see a pop north after bojo announcement tomorrow as airports opening up a travel starting again

This stock's natural habitat is north of £19.

This is where it lived through 2017- 2019

And to its natural habitat, it will return.

It is as certain as a pack of chewing gum being 20% more expensive in SMWH than anywhere else. LOL

WH Smith will come back stronger post COVID when everything re-opens.

Thousands of "Mom 'n Pop" stationers and newsagents will go to the wall.

SMWH will just hoover up the business of it's bust competitors.

Re-opening stocks 'popped' in the US last night.

[undervaluedassets] 25/3/2021 23:54

Stocks like this are constituents of what they are calling in the US "the reopening trade". These are stocks that have suffered through closures under lockdown but that should quickly flourish again once society opens back up.

SMWH is a quintessential "reopening" stock IMV.

Thats a hell of a bounce off the bottom in the last 90 minutes

[leedslad001] 25/3/2021 12:18

Added again

[undervaluedassets] 24/3/2021 16:20

Yup. Be fine.

If the travel companies can have a bounce today then this is well over-done.

Have many fewer overheads than airlines and travel companies.

Will re-open as things lift and go straight back to business as usual.

There is no other company quite like WH Smith. Or that has its margins.

Bought back in 2 day's early too early lol

[joshuam] 20/3/2021 05:22

Not enough good news out there for me to buy back in, going to watch how next week goes

[leedslad001] 19/3/2021 11:01

Bought back in

This is my "sleep well at night" stock.

The purveyors of slightly overpriced confectionary, stationary and magazines will soon be trading at full strength once again from their 'no other alternative' locations. A lovely, boring, predictable and profitable company.

Very happy holder since making my investment on 9/11/20

[leedslad001] 11/3/2021 08:51

Thank you that's me out again

[undervaluedassets] 09/3/2021 08:48

benign.

With lots to look forward to when things open up.

[this_is_me] 09/3/2021 08:09

Very impressive revenue on the High Street and getting anything in the travel business was good going.

[leedslad001] 04/3/2021 10:50

Back in this morning for a 1.50 discount

[undervaluedassets] 02/3/2021 12:07

Never mind the next guy.. I hope to have these forever.

This business model is a sound one.

The pandemic made a short-term gift of the share price. In fact, as I write it is still cheap by historical standards

[this_is_me] 25/2/2021 22:56

Yes, some have the idea of "leaving a little for the next guy", others don't like to sell out too early in case the uptrend continues and prefer to sell only when they are confident the uptrend is really broken. I am in the latter group and I suspect you are in the former.

Anyway the share price is well up from being around the £10 mark so I'm not intending to sell just yet, although that could change at any time.

[leedslad001] 25/2/2021 13:52

There is always a pull back nothing goes up in a straight line You never get in at the bottom and you never get out at the top it's about making the money from the bit in between

[this_is_me] 25/2/2021 13:30

There is no sign of a pullback; always run your winners.

[leedslad001] 25/2/2021 13:15

Took profits today as reached my first target 20.00 now waiting for pull back

[this_is_me] 23/2/2021 20:19

Huge volume of shares traded today supporting the breakout.
