Hi - Hmm - very tempting at this lower end of the SP range - will soon be back in - still like TW though just at the mo - The Tesco factor is an interesting possiblity - no fears just yet though - this Christmas season is all Dixons for my money - Cheers - The Kid -
Cannot wait till after Xmas to see what the SP would be then Bob
We have made a stellar profit in a day out of TSCO yesterday and I was celebrating....thus the wrong posting. Sorry about that. Regarding the tablet Sid, I agree with you they should concentrate in the core business and get back the lost market share. As for DXNS whether it goes to 40p or to 50p is of no impact to us. We love to have the stock in our portfolio and amongst the carnage witnessed day in day out in some big cap stocks [ see HSBA, BARC, TSCO to name but a few] it is a solid investment IMO for the future.
Currys / PC World on BBC Watchdog next week (Wednesday 9th September). Regarding the Whatever Happens / Extended Warranties. Very lucrative product for Currys. This could be very interesting,
Had a quick look at the Tesco tablet reviews, and both myself and my colleague agreed that we would rather pay the extra for a Nexus 7 than the buy Tesco own brand (there is not that much difference in the lower end price). The Tesco Hudl seems fine for web surfing, but seems to score low when it comes to playing games. I brought into this recently, on the basis that tablet sales will rocket this Christmas.
It may have been the wrong one - but what TSCO is up to is relevant imo. Especially as tablet sales were so important to DXNS, TSCO launching their own could be a bit of an annoyance. I don't think the majority of people want budget branded tablets yet as they are still seen as a bit of a prestige product imo, but if TSCO can make sufficient inroads then who knows. For me as a TSCO holder too I'd rather they just concentrated on selling bloody food!
Apologies for the wrong post before it has been one of them days...
One article for general reading about TSCO http://www.retail-week.com/companies/tesco/analysis-how-is-tescos-multichannel-strategy-developing/5053589.article and this as well http://www.retail-week.com/sectors/food/comment-tesco-must-ride-out-the-european-storm/5053584.article?referrer=RSS
A further reduction on short exposure by Marble Arch Invest as of 30th Sept leaves DXNS short position down to 4.36%.
Absolutely right. DXNS has said nothing but brokers based on EPS increase have forecasted/anticipate and penciled in the price IMO a 0.02p dividend announcement. That said, when and if announced by the company it would be great news as it would confirm EPS estimates and a strong trading performance. Lets wait and and see I suppose.
I am fairly sure wakeup the company have NOT said anything about reintroducing a dividend yet, the forecast is just what some of the market think. If it was reintroduced I think that there would be a sharp mark up in the SP, hopefully this will be announced next year. Believe the stores are busy, can anyone on the inside confirm this?
DYOR..... muslims dont eat pork lol.
Ha ha ha ...yep you are right we are not far now...I can offer you as an alternative though an option on pork bellies futures ! What about that for an offer?
Thanks , can you advise is there a futures for xmas turkey's ?
The forecast for DXNS for 2014 is a 0.02p dividend with a 0.32p dividend forecast for 2015 yielding 0.7%. EPS expected to be +60% for 2014 at 2.4 p.
In the case of DSG, If and when an announcement of a Dividend, would it be likely in retrospect or for a forthcoming financial term.
Being a relative newbie to the share dealing game, I have to say this is my favourite share and has made me a tidy sum this year to add to my pot. Can only see this going up, they seem to be doing everything right, stores are busy even at this time of year, they are keeping up with the latest tech which is what they were missing IMO . Great advice from people on this board, thanks to them for that.
Shorters in the stock have been reduced as of yesterday to just 4.37% as Marble Arch Invest bought back stock to reduce their shorts. All good news but we need some serious buying to go above 48 p or potentially the remaining Broker with a sell note on the stock to give an upgrade! I wish... On the other hand the 45.5 p level seems to be a good support level at the moment something we have recently exploit and added a further 150K shares to our holdings to bring them well over 1Mio. I was of the opinion that the stock would move positively higher but it seems that the price targets given by a number of brokers and the so called 'fair value price' level are at the moment proving an obstacle as is the forthcoming Royal Mail cash outflows....So in my opinion Buy on weakness, sell on peaks but remain 'long' for the long term.
Hi Kiddy winks...shame you didn't get back in yesterday, we haven't had these lows since the start of this month. so whats next on the agenda..? Is Panama going to be the next cyprus ...?
Hi - please do not worry - I am poised to drop back into this one - will surge as and when my intentions become clear to the markets - still in with TW - but that is proving to be a stubborn little buggar as well - still, no pain no gain - Cheers - The Kid -
probably frustration driving the deafening silence here. If I wasn't so committed elsewhere I'd get another bundle of these, having sold nearly half my holding over the last week or so. Seems like a good opportunity to take advantage of general sentiment across the board. I like days like this(as long as I have some cash spare).
any news..?
Dixons Retail The sale of PIXmania by Dixons Retail (LSE: DXNS) is going according to plan, and the firm announced today that the agreement has now been signed after the required employee consultations were concluded. The buyer is German-listed mutares AG, and the head of murates France told us "I am very pleased that we are now able to proceed with this transaction following positive discussions with employee representatives". Dixons shares gained 0.4p (1%) to 47.4p, and are now up nearly 150% over the past 12 months after one of the most impressive high street turnarounds in recent years. The shares are on a P/E of 20 based on this year's forecasts, but we are expecting a 60% rise in earnings, and 2015 predictions drop the P/E to 15.
Whacked with a -1% drop! Looks like selling Pix has been priced in for many months.
