Ilex Capital Partner - new short position above .05% in WTB.

Marshall Wace increased their short again,
before the end of February.

Last purchase was in November when they were paying 30 per share... seems like a good time to roll it out now

They've done well on that trade. Let's hope they unwind it and leave WTB alone for awhile

2newinvestor,

Action is posting a personal view, just as brokers publish price targets.

A broker can significantly alter a price target (on a given stock) in the blink of an eye - this happens regularly.

None of us have a crystal ball. There could be a bid for WTB tomorrow which would instantly alter the investment case dynamic, or this may never happen.


What I have noted over the last 12 months, are a couple of chunky director sales And the absence of any significant director buying,
coupled with a Marshall Wace short position.

IF the current share price represents great value, you might question why some of the non execs are not adding.

Action, given the wider UK economy has about ground to a halt, I would expect numerous profit warnings (from UK consumer facing businesses) to hit in a few months time - whether this includes WTB?, we will see.

NI and national minimum wage changes to navigate in the context of declining consumer confidence is far from ideal

There is asset backing with their property holdings and given Premier Inns' UK market share, WTB may attract a bid at some point.

Well if you notice there was a gargantuan Director share sale in GRG last October, from memory.

A couple of WTB directors have alao sold chunky amounts last year. See what they have to say.

Anything updating this past week has been hammered.

I've sold all my WTB before next week's news.

On Tuesday, Deutsche Bank (ETR:DBKGn) reaffirmed its Buy rating on Whitbread PLC (LON:WTB:LN) (OTC: WTBCF), with a steady price target of GBP41.50. The firm's analysis took into account the recent UK budget, which posed challenges for multi-site operators including pubs, hotels, and retail businesses. Adjustments to forecasts were made in light of these economic developments.

Whitbread, known for its hotel and hospitality services, is considered to be in a stronger position compared to pubs and restaurants, primarily due to its higher labor productivity. The sales per labor-hour at Whitbread stand at approximately £60, which is notably higher than the £30-40 typically seen at pub establishments.

The company's portfolio of freehold assets provides a margin cushion that is expected to keep the impact of earnings downgrades to a minimum. This strategic advantage is particularly significant in the current economic climate, as businesses navigate the implications of the new budget.

The analyst also pointed out that Whitbread's third-quarter trading period is concluding this week. However, the detailed results will not be publicly disclosed until January 16. This timing presents an opportunity for stakeholders to monitor the company's weekly revenue per available room (RevPAR) trends closely.

Deutsche Bank's stance on Whitbread remains positive, with the expectation that the company's financial performance will continue to be robust despite the broader challenges faced by the sector.

The Buy rating and price target reflect confidence in Whitbread's business model and its ability to adapt to economic changes.

Think we can stop reading in poor airline performance as a gauge for WTB share price. Ezyjet passenger volume up 8% yoy

Phil - how do you apply for card ? ( I’m with Barclays ). Sorry if this is a repeat questions.

V happy with wtb share price. Bought about 12 months ago in height of truss panic. Invested as premier inn is my preferred choice when using reasonable price hotels. (So much better than travel lodge etc).
