It will be a bloodbath today across all the market. Asia is a sea of red with all exchanges below 1%. The inflation in the USA has given the narrative that there may be no rate cuts this year, some even suggest rises! Tomorrow, will be interesting in the UK as I think the reading will be in the 2% ball park. I wonder if the BofE will break from the Fed and start cuts in June/August. But that takes big balls which I don't think the BofE has. Could spur on investment into the FTSE, but will that be good for inflation?
Let's hope this crap doesn't follow Superdry, £20 share a few years back now 5p and de-listing. Dunkerton getting it back cheap.

But, but, Coasty was adamant that it was flying and all was well? How can this be? Conned again?
Why would it? Superdry has massive debt and huge high street costs. Not to mention a crap brand.
Boo has none of those things
Pls explain your reasoning bon Scott, assuming you have any?

Because Coasty hailed it as a stellar recovery play, that's why. Take it up with him.
You are the one making stupid claims on here Bon Scott.
As per usual no back up to the fud rubbish
Thats a big shame voltaire, we have one of their stores in my town. its never jammed full but never empty either to be fair, but that is one fall from grace when looking at the shareholder value.
Right to be concerned that the same could happen here, is certainly possible the founding fathers may fancy taking this back off market for a song, avoid public further scrutiny while they try to 'grow' it up again then resell, rinse repeat. Im sure big mike would do a deal to facilitate if he came out ahead monetarily.
The whole Sdry thing is a good lesson in that fickle fashion arrives fast, then disappears just as fast again, only fast fashion is even faster.
Bf - I think they're referring to the trade I did on superdry..... Got in at about 16p and out at 52.5.
When parents start shopping at the same store as their kids it's a slippery slope
Want happen with boohoo.
Who in their right mind out of their teens would buy these high quality ethically sourced garments
"Bf - I think they're referring to the trade I did on superdry..... Got in at about 16p and out at 52.5."
My compliments. You avoided the accidental slip-up of referring to him as Tradey. Must keep up appearances!
Sorry daytrade I won't make the same mistake again...

Same question to you daytrade. Superdry has massive debt, huge bricks and mortar costs and a liquidity crisis. Not to mention a tarnished brand
Boo has none of those things.
It also has enough Ii investment to stop anything untoward happening.
So how could the same thing happen here, pls do enlighten us all.
southcoast, so once again the pointless trolls are just goading and lying because they have nothing better to do with their lives.
same **** different day
Boohoo brand is not tarnished
Post of the day that will be
Oooo i see those goalposts have been moved to the centre circle and the deflectometer is on maximum warp drive again, always the same with old tradey/new bfd, deflecting away from the answer already provided, as below.
"Because Coasty hailed it as a stellar recovery play, that's why. Take it up with him."
Anyways, we all know The BOO brand is tarnished - had nothing but a serious drubbing for the last few years, and i dont recall anybody investigating Sdry for any shortcomings? In fact id maybe go so far as to say, with its drubbing and absolutley p1s5 poor PR efforts the BOO brand is now an actual liability! Sure as eggs are eggs nobody is buying the company story anymore, are they?
Debts, well, they are running on credit it would appear at the moment, happily munching through others money using the now reduced RCF. Perhaps they have planted a magic money tree to replenish that at some point?, one previous lender refusing to extend a good portion of it, as clearly with the forecast declines in revenue those servicing costs are under pressure (im being kind there).
As for high street stores - well an online seller wouldnt have any of those would they! They have however tried a pop up shop (was that waste of time repeated aagain - nope) and they have, through further scandals being exposed (labeling) been forced to close their 'centre of excellence (cough) in very short order, possibly to pop some coppers back in the till.
So, why given all the scandals, poor PR, and desparate position the company is in, in a growing market as well, wouldnt the still totally silent BOD fancy taking this back into private ownership?
It would make sense, they have rinsed the shareholders once (more if considering the PLT overpay) and enriched themselves with multi coloured lambos etc etc, all paid for at the shareholder expense, why indeed not try it again?
I mean that bargain basement share price - all the way down from 432 to 34p - some 90% decline, has shown a stellar performance from the "growth" companies board. Most firms would have booted them out for being slack a long time ago.
But dont worry, its all great in the BOO world because some faceless mug on a website said so, lol lol, and has been doing so all the way down.
only, as we have already established, southcoast said nothing of the sort did he daytrade. he merely did a short term trade.
so why continue with the continual lies.
so boo positive operational cash flows now, has an rcf approaching £300m that goes through to mid 2026, is scheduled to return to profitability before then so is absolutely nothing like superdry is it daytrade?
the servicing costs for the debt are about £11m per year per the accounts, so rather than being kind you are being excessively stupid stating that they are a risk based on turnover in excess of £1.5bn.
lets compare the influencers using the boo brand compared to superdry should we daytrade? does that suggest a tarnished brand to you in consumers eyes. or lets compare boo website visits to asos. boo up 11% last month, compared to asos flat. i hope you have figured out what similarweb actually does now, although it was hilarious seeing you show your stupidity yesterday.
or maybe let's look at the profitable debenhams brand which is now apparently profitable, do you think that is tarnished daytrade, does superdry have an equivalent?
why do you continually refer back to plt with your libellous comments. didnt the boo sp rise after the purchase of plt, which would indicate the market at the time thought it was a good deal?
come on daytrade, with the amount of time you spend ****ging off your supposed investment here, you should be able to do far better.
Spot on tradey
You can understand why the directors are falling over themselves to buy shares in here recently.
Surely they are singing from the same hymn sheet as Stuart Little??
..... And not buying
No numbers since 3rd October 2023….Not one update all month.
This is very poor, no wonder the share price is going nowhere and near record lows.
Wake up BOO BOD!
So, Coasty, you weren't pumping Superdry, you say? Merely a humble in-and-out share trade?
Seperate posts:
"Off to celebrate the meteoric superdry rise now😎"
"The rally over at superdry is exactly what will happen here at some point....."
"Feb 2nd: Superdry only had a 1. 5 percent short aswell.... Look at that rally...."
I sincerely hope that your heralded Superdry rally does NOT replicate itself at Boohoo. Conman.
Oh tradey you do talk some carp, but a complete diehard does dig in in ggeneral when challenged so hardly surprising given your position here.
Rcf £300m is it? you topped it up or something?
last i read it was originally £325m, then a lender of £75m pulled out extending it because of their risk analysis. do try harder with the math.
as for "scheduled to return to profitability", supposedly, according to you "before mid 2026"
that is some pathetic baseless claim we've become used to seeing from you.
Neither I, the BOD, and especially not you have any concrete factual evidence of this at all - it is simply a guess and totally unproven, as well you and the rest of us know.
yes it waffles on about that in the company rns's but they are not a given are they - they are in essence a complete GUESS or PROJECTION or whatever else you and the BOD dress them up as.
Id suggest you view such guesses more cynically given the silent BOD's lack of interest and ability here. I mean, how many "growth" plans have they announced now, 2-4? ive lost count. Same as the continually reducing option prices.
How many shares has the BOD bought in at such rock bottom prices? thats right. None.
Thats a display of confidence for you, eh!
How much is that stake in Plt worth now? far far less than daddy paid his son et al for it (with shareholders monies). Bargain of the centuary for sure lol..
How is daddy spending his day? The answer is posting the odd photo on his yacht and an inspirational quote here and there. "everyday is a work day" he states.
Well maybe he should do what he says and do something to arrest the runaway decline thats been evident for several years now - with ZERO sign of any tangible recovery at all.
How low would this be if Big Mike didnt buy his 20%?.
Nobody else is buying this basket case, are they, and even big mike seems to have stopped now and not want anymore.
Look at the sp man.
The last few years here have been and continue to be a complete DISASTER, anybody with any sense can see it, alas you continue to do what a salesman does best, spin spin spin and attack anybody sensible enough to open their eyes and look objectively.
All done out of personal obsession and desparation having had money tied up in here and declining in value for yonks now.
Its great to see such a ramper on his own spike on here, too many get away with intentionaly misleading others.
You love this company so much, you are blinkered 101% towards it - your choice of course, but wont disclose your average, nor any buys, but its clear to everybody that your in deep, too deep and more and more desparate to close down the real story here.
I would feel sorry for you. . . .. . . but the way you behave prevents too many tears falling.
Good post Bon,
fancy even him trying to make out it was a single one off trade, full of something
Daytrade, spidey, Sam and Bon Scott you bring absolutely nothing to this board. Please leave (quietly)
daytrade it's comical how you keep referring to me as some fantasy figure from your foetid imagination. why do it?
it's not me saying boo will return to profitability before 2026, its the analyst community. rather than posting long winded make believe on here why not actually do some real research. the rcf as it stands is the best part of £300m, no reduction takes place until mid 2025 as i understand it, so why lie about this? and why even post that a unit in leicester worth at best £2m is being sold because the funds are needed desperately. its complete rubbish isn't it?
as for director purchases, what impact have they had on the asos sp. its a pointless deflection, other than to show once again your complete lack of understanding of your supposed investment. simply go and look at the february rns and you will see all the non exec directors have a growing shareholding in the business. but that wouldn't fit with your agenda would it?
plt may be worthless now than boo paid for it, but thats what happens in markets. we can only look at deals in the context that they are done and i see you avoid admitting that the plt one was received favourably at the time. its hilarious that you completely ignore the debenhams deal. £55m for one of the best ever known brands in the uk and now apparently trading profitably.
still you keep ****ging off your own supposed investment, you obviously have nothing better to do with your life
Spot on again
And the sp backs up everything you say
