The Doomers and Gloomers with no morals and no ethics complaining about Boohoo.
Can I just point out your spelling again.Quite a quite.......how many have you had?
Look past their comments and think why are the Doomers and Gloomers still commenting on here. Their agenda is to get the Boohoo share price as low as possible so they can buy them. So obvious.
They're all so desperate to get back into Boohoo shares as cheap as they can. Scaremongering at its best.
Everybody wants to buy Boo shares this week ,how are the MMs going to cope!
The Doomers and Gloomers are really desperate to buy Boohoo shares. They'll use any means and any way to try and get you to sell.
Doomers and Gloomers still here trying to get the Boohoo share price down to buy them. They're so obvious. Filter them, Ignore them. Don't let them get to you.
Go for a walk if you find yourself getting angry or upset or frustrated by them.
The more Doomers and Gloomers, the more desperate they are to buy Boohoo shares cheap. So many of them wanting to buy Boohoo shares.
It's a beautiful day here today. Time for a walk to nourish the mind, body and spirit. This is what life's about. So get out there and take care of yourself. No-one else will do it for you.
The US$1.9 trillion financial package passed by the US Senate yesterday, already passed by the US House of Representatives, will go back to the US House of Representatives before being passed to the US President for it to become law.
I would think this will help to boost the US Stock Market tomorrow which in turn will help to boost worldwide stock markets tomorrow.
Boohoo have a design and management team for each brand so they don't overlap. The brands are run as separate businesses.
For me, Asos made a huge mistake closing down the Topshop website and bringing it all in under the umbrella of the Asos website.
Asos should have kept the Topshop website and put Topshop items on their Asos website too. Asos missed a trick here. They should have learnt from Boohoo how to do it.
The future growth of Boohoo will be phenomenal. Boohoo's growth in the past has been phenomenal and will continue to be so.
They are trend leaders.
They are excellent at buying brands cheap and making them profitable within two years. They did this with the US brand Nasty Gal and are doing it now with Karen Millen.
Boohoo couldn't believe themselves when a Karen Millen coat costing £1,000 sold out so quickly.
Boohoo have so much future potential growth with Boohoo, BoohooMan, Prettylittlething, Nasty Gal, MissPap, Karen Millen, Coast, Oasis, Warehouse, Wallis, Dorothy Perkins, Burtons, Debenhams with Debenhams Beauty and Debenhams brands like Manteray, Maine, Principles, etc.
I have held my 360,000 Boohoo shares since 2015. I research them thoroughly. With so much money invested my research continues to tell me that Boohoo is the best place for this money.
It's the fundamentals that count, the rest is simply noise which will blow over.
Boohoo’s reparation efforts go far beyond those of most fashion retailers. As I said Boohoo have always learnt from their mistakes and put them better than right.
Boohoo will be publishing their UK Suppliers list by end of march 2021 and their global suppliers list by end of September 2021.
Doomers and Gloomers are still here trying to get the share price down so they can by back in. Too obvious. Ignore them. Filter them. Life is too precious to spend time answering them.
I bought 360,000 Boohoo shares in 2015. I have held them through every up and down and I hope to be holding them for many years to come. As long as the fundamentals add up, then I'll continue to hold all my Boohoo shares.
Boohoo have always learnt from their mistakes and put them better than right.
Time, patience and research are the skills needed for investing in shares.
For those who believe that online shopping will continue to be our preferred option for buying, McDermott suggests that investors should look at the likes of Jupiter UK Smaller Companies. Among its largest holdings is BooHoo, the online clothing retailer.
Because he is buying boo at the lowest price he can.... the only reason he is here on a weekend rubbishing a stock. I think purple bricks is a sucker stock, I don’t sit on the bb rubbishing it all weekend. TCM, Pedro and a few other trolls sit on here and like to have the last word. They keep on replying or bringing negative threads to the top as they have an alternative motive.
I have no intention of buying any at any price.Without growth this can only be worth 50p maximum.This is values asa growth share,that is highly doubtful.
You say they have enough evidence,so why would they not? Almost certainly .Lets face it they have a duty to protect against Slavery,and if they have evidence then they would take delight in doing it.I think everybody would agree Slavery is evil.
Just read a few articles on this, most claim that the US authorities “have enough evidence “ to start an investigation - But have they started one or will they start one?? Thats the bigger question. If the answer comes back NO they haven't/wont then i don't see why the sp here wont rise again.
If the answer is YES and Boo are under investigation then the sp is stuck until they are cleared (or not as the case may be)
Does anyone know for sure?
It looks, from the reports of the U.S investigation that Boo is firmly on the Authorities radar.If that is the case then this company could get completely stiffled.I am sur that other competitors are not completely blameless but they could get away with their activities,where it looks like Boo is now in a straightjacket.They could at a major disadvantage now.The Authorities and Politicians are watching.Old habits die hard,will they try to continue their old habits,that would be very foolish.
Lets forget the historical Slavery allegations,for one moment.And instead take Boo at its word that things will or have changed.If that adds 10% to costs versus nil for the rest of the industry what effect does that have on the Boo growth story? Boo needs growth to justify this high share price.This of course takes no account of the headwinds now facing the company for past historical mistakes.Too many bodies want Boo to pay a price.And rightly so.
A very good reason to get out.
Share price only rose 50% after the slavery allegations.... mud sticks.
Mud sticks.It wont be that easy,too many people have it in for them.Politicians,media and activists.They wont let things go easily.They want their pound of flesh,and will probably get it.
US Customs officers have more to worry about than a ban on a UK online retailer - FT 2 March 2021
Punishment for coming forward about a crime is one of the recurring themes in US law enforcement. It can play out as comedy, such as when drug dealers dial 911 to report the theft of their stash, and more often as tragedy, such as when immigrants seek police protection that results in their deportation.
It can also play out as farce.
Shares in Boohoo slipped following reports that the British clothing retailer could be blocked from importing goods in the US on allegations of using forced labour. What set the ball rolling was a complaint to the US Customs and Border Protection agency, CBP, from Liberty Shared, an anti-trafficking organisation. It cited the supply chain review Boohoo itself commissioned last year as part of a reputation rebuilding exercise.
Boohoo said it was “not aware” of any investigation and promised to work with any “competent authority” to prove its products and supply chain meet the required standards. The whole episode brings to mind another recurring theme of US law enforcement — that gun owners are much more likely to be shot with their own weapon than use it successfully in self defence.
Boohoo’s response listed recommendations already adopted from last year’s report, which criticised management’s failures of oversight and governance but found no evidence that the company itself had acted criminally. These findings have become a key part of the armoury the group deploys to counter negative publicity around working practices, which first caught the attention of consumers and institutional investors last summer having been ignored for at least two years.
Yet the risk of Boohoo being locked out of its fastest-growing market appears vanishingly small.
America has been taking a harder line on slave-produced goods since 2016, when Congress closed a loophole that allowed their import if demand exceeded domestic supply. One of the CBP’s first uses of its expanded remit was to seize Stevia powder, a natural sweetener, from London-listed ingredients maker PureCircle, then release the shipment seven months later after an independent audit supplied by the company showed no connection with Chinese labour camps. More recent actions have targeted the Xinjiang region in China, home to the oppressed Uighur Muslims.
Establishing origin is challenging when raw materials flit across borders and fabrication passes between subcontractors. Reading a report on the Leicester rag trade will be easier for investigators than tracking down the provenance of cobalt-powered electric car batteries and cotton used in football shirts.
But having belatedly faced up to its problems, Boohoo’s reparation efforts go far beyond those of most fashion retailers. If its promises are delivered, the failings detailed in last year’s report will be historic. US authorities ought to have something better to do than hoist a penitent company by i
