No just about the tech Dan of the underlying product and service is inferior.

If you take the Chinese as an example , they rely heavily on British talent for the creativity part of games making.

Plenty of growth for boohoo due to the collaborations and loss of traditional retailers.

boo is a fast growing company and when the share price comes it will come,

Dan thanks for your posts much appreciated

I believe Boo can, just frustrating to see this underperform a lot of other stocks have risen well this has been a turd

This is a turd

Easy with hindsight but should have stayed with FXPO and CAML risen 40% since I have been holding here with18% gain also missed Argo could have been 2000% up now this is a bag of manure.

It will go up just frustrating other plays been better than this

What can you believe?

He only makes $36k a year is that not the case?
Has missed many deadlines, how many has he missed? says his judgement is poor, he over promises and under delivers.

Thanks Webba, yes dont want stores, but you know the location of oxford circus doesnt make it a bad deal if we own a couple that will be valuable in a few years, trends change very easily.

Not sure how to assess the Boxing day sales, Next usually has a lot of footfall then and with covid not sure if they will see that.
Feel the online retailers will have fared better.
Also does anyone know the arrangement Boohoo have/had with Asos why do they sell stock on their site? i hope this year has been an eye opener and we stop doing that, as surely that must be cutting into the margins, ok they have the platform and customer numbers, but boohoo have been growing aggresively now they can hold their own?

If we had to make one acquisition what would you want? I think Topman/Topshop would be good, but will be too expensive, but owning the big flagship stores say in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds & NY (Think they still own that but did sell part of the business in 2012) may not be a bad idea, but the brand is very good and if anyone buys with no bidding war it will be far cheaper to what it was worth in January of this year, so long term will pay off.

Miss Selfridge or DP may not be bad brands if we buy they at a good price. We can overpay for Topman but hope they have the strategy to get the best out of that deal.

Think they will be decent, we have had lockdowns, but Debenhams have had a firesale so could be some impact but they are growing aggressively abroad. But debenhams is a different market to them, what will be interesting what the investment they have made pays off in a few years, autonomous warehouses, will help with efficiency, growing in the US will be key.
Boohoo like Asos have a lot of cash they are sitting on, will be interesting what they do with the cash, I want them to acquire a good deal if we can and keep investing in Tech aswell and products.
Look at Ocado, the tech they invested in has paid off, appreciate they are completely different to Boohoo, but better Tech can help with efficiency and sales.

To all those jumping on Boohoo criticizing the minimum pay done by outsourced firms in leicester the below is an interesting read as i said many others will be flouting rules and have been found out. I know this is between previous years, but it is a problem companies will look to do. Boohoo has learnt its lesson and handled it perfectly.
Neither less utilise the concentration camps in china.

Wouldnt touch S4, they have risen a lot and will be interesting to see what those marketing budgets will be.

Puretech looks good but need to do research.

Think there are better oilers out there like Tullow and GKP/Genel.

Yes i was being sarcastic, if they can grow aggresively, the share price will trade higher.

Look at where we are now and the trend line last 3 years we have not grown that much on share price terms, ok is is 10 times since 2015 but they have grown a lot and made some good acquisitions?

Anyone feeling they will buy Top man or Burton? Top man will be a challenge i think as a few are after that, but i rather they make a good deal than a bad one

Expanding in the US aswell, is a big factor.

Glad i listened to those in the know and sold out this morning, thanks guys you were right!

I hope you all get to see the deal next year, this company has been disappointing and he has no more excuses, hopefully with everything done now, a deal can be done.

One good thing he is not paid that much, unlike other CEO's who bleed the company but like him do very little to justify the salary.

This isnt solely a Boohoo issue it is an issue for all, all companies use these factories that are not owned by the firm.
There is evidence in china of concentration camps that large companies have been using and kept a blind eye, boohoo being mentioned is a red herring, sort the industry out that will help these workers.

6,500 annually is not an unreasonable amount qualified people are probably paid 2/3 times that amount over there.

Ignore idiot derampers and pumpers who have done quiet or done a 360 this has been delayed that is all.

Unfortunately that is Aim I was invested in metminco , it was run by a charlatan

Follow your conviction don’t take advice from anyone here, do you own research.

It’s just a deadline which LC has messed up, set an unrealistic deadline that he could not achieve in the time frame , probably reenforces why he is paid so much

A deal will happen just relax, LC has answers like metminco I want a call with him.
