Sorry meant £1.50 next week
If TED ends the week at this level it would be a good outcome in relative terms. 150 in the next session is fanciful in the extreme- although I’d take it...
Isn’t a 10.9% rise enough
I love your optimism, but not a chance of £1.50 this week.
Need to push through 112p first, then 125 I believe.
A good result would be a close above 112p tomorrow, but I suspect we'll retest 100p before then.
Hope you're right and I'm wrong.
Share price has started to recover quite quickly here £1.50 is a possibility this week
I doubt any company merge with or acquire another Without due diligence and good signs of growing successful strategy..
These takes time and no one will throw away millions of pounds without achieving these objectives....
**You know it makes sense Rodney ** :)
Well, someone should have taken it out when the mcap was around £50m, before the raise.
Retailers need to consolidate and strengthen as currently everyone is trying to get a bigger bite from the mainly online fast growing retail market with a cut throat competition resulting in lower margins of profits ..to sell their goods at lower price to attract customers...
The one good solution is to merge or buy your competitors...me thinking..
Ted with its high end name is ideal for this scenario...

*Buyers queuing to get in at these low prices won’t be long before this is £1.50+*
Is volume continues, then hopefully we'll test 112 again. Only this time, sail through.

*Ted is a win win situation now.....big recovery or a bid?*
Can't see a bid now. But I can see a recovery over the medium terms.
Ted is a win win situation now.....big recovery or a bid?
Ah well might add on share dips..

Buyers queuing to get in at these low prices won’t be long before this is £1.50+
I’ll add more once it breaches 105
IMO....Ted is the perfect recovery story to be...
The new restructuring,management at the top are focusing on online early on and sales up 39% and costs are down...
Looking at the recent customer reviews who are buying Ted products 4.5 star out of 5..
We guys I am riding on more than 50k shares here and very confident..as we seem to be at the start of bounce of SP..
GL holders
Holding strong here..
They've got a 26.1 % interest in the company, which has cost them around £60m, I believe. They would need 75% to take the company private, without the agreement of anyone else. Or, as you say, they would need to make a bid as part of some consortium - they have history of doing the latter.
At the end of the day, we must assume that like us they are here to make money and believe they can. Not sure what use it is second guessing their intentions, intriguing as they may be.
At the moment I'm happy to be onboard on for the ride.
It's slow ride at the moment, but perhaps it's about to pick up steam.
1 or 2 days of volume, like a week or so ago, and we'll sail past 112, on to 125.
I just didn’t see tosca as that type of business, have they done it before as far as you’re aware (I have very limited knowledge of them so clearly not saying they couldn’t take it private) . They’re at something like 25 percent of the business so they don’t need to buy much more before that have to offer to purchase the rest of the company.
"I can’t see them taking it private?"
Why not?
I’ve only held this a month so doing ok from it. What is everyone’s thoughts on what TOSCA are doing owning so much of the company. I can’t see them taking it private?
Well for some reason my post was deleted - but I basically said, the numbers will do the talking here - one way or the other - and they're not due until Oct.
I pop in from time-to-time, but there's nothing to see here really.
Every now and again an II seems to add more (most likely TOSCA) which causes a significant price swing.
But numbers are the only thing that will move this share price in a sustainable fashion. Until then, it will be buffeted about by market conditions and minimal buys and sells. Perhaps in the current range of 90-97p.
Only a small mount of the free float is in the hands of PIs. The bulk of TED's shares are held by IIs and Kelvin, so the receipt of good numbers - and volume - will move this price up quickly. Obviously, the same goes the other way for bad numbers.
I think half year results are due around late Sept early Oct, I believe.
How strange Ted has been ignored and not many investors are showing much interest ..
guys Ted is the one retailer that I have many shares in with confidence..
Big recovery play here..and you need to have another look imo..
As always dyor...
Probably not, given the doom and gloom on the horizon re COVID19 and a 'second wave' (not sure we ever passed through what might be described as the 'first wave'), but it's positive market expectations have been exceeded.

"UK retail trade increased 2.0 percent from a month earlier in July 2020, recovering further from the sharp falls during lockdown and easily beating market expectations of 0.2 percent."

"Retail sales excluding fuel in the United Kingdom increased 13.5 percent month-over-month in June of 2020, well above market forecasts of a 7.5 percent rise and after a 10.6 percent gain in May."

"UK retail trade increased 3.6 percent from a month earlier in July 2020, recovering further from the sharp falls during lockdown and easily beating market expectations of 2.0 percent. Non-food sales climbed 10.0 percent and fuel trade jumped 26.2 percent. Sales at food stores declined 3.1 percent, which could be explained by the re-opening of restaurants and bars from July 4th, as consumers’ retail food bills reduced as they began to eat out. At the same time, non-store retailing dropped for a second straight month from the sharp growth in March, April and May, possibly an impact of an increasing number of retail stores re-opening. Retail sales volumes were 3.0 percent above pre-pandemic levels in February, led by food sales (2.4 percent) and non-store retailing (49.2 percent), while non-food trade and fuel sales were down 6.6 percent and 11.7 percent respectively."
