But it specifically refers to the online clothing sector Spidey.

Leading the way in growth. The biggest monthly increase in online sales since July 23

And clothing and footwear increased by twice as much as any other sector.

Not quite matching your dire prediction eh Spidey.

How embarrassing

Even more reason for the US to bring in the legislation to even the playing field i think

But tell me Spidey, have you seen the retail sales stats for online today.

Didn't you try to tell us all how February would be a terrible month for online due to bad weather

Quite the opposite in fact wasn't it Spidey?

Alex, check the link I've just posted, it goes to the ONS core data. Good performance for online

Now which of the trolls was saying February would be terrible for online due to bad weather!

"Largest monthly rise in online sales since July 2023'

That's not me, that's a direct quote from the ONS

Online sales had a fantastic February, led by clothing sales, here is the link for anybody interested. Trolls will doubtlessly try to get this removed or shout all over it

Well looks like daytrade's post has been removed, not for the first time, but to answer his question.

The FY results this May are the last time COVID/Ukraine can be used as a comparator/reason for performance ( not an excuse, that is just typical daytrade trying to goad). The sales volumes for FY 24 will still be compared to FY23 which still had online artificial uplift included. Costs have still been normalising from inflationary peaks and ofcourse the cost of living crisis has impacted the demand side.

All of these factors should normalise in the current financial year

The pandemic actually finished in early/mid 2022 and its repercussions rumbled on for another year or so, compounded by the UKraine war.

Let's keep the discussion sensible

DGEEMAN you got to the right answer albeit from the wrong starting point.

The REX offer raised less money than Avacta originally wanted because they decided to limit it to only existing Avacta shareholders. Conversely the II offer was oversubscribed.

As i posted earlier, Smith has a another thing to answer for, which he undoubtedly won't do!

Spidey with the lowest volume of shares traded EVER yesterday, do you really think shorts are still active here

They have bought back and are either reducing or margin trading.

I'm glad to see somebody is addressing the elephant in the room.

Historically, the first patient dosed in every cohort has been communicated via RNS. This time it is the third patient.

A pound to a penny, the first patient was dosed before the fund raise was announced, hence the participation of funds, otherwise it wouldn't have been at such a pathetic level.

It's great that the science is progressing, I was able to pick up some cheap shares (with a long term perspective), but this is one more example of Smith's disdain for PI:s and his unsuitability for a CEO role

The sp here may or may not go back to previous levels, if it does it will take a number of years.

What we are starting to see are a whole number of things which should help Boo to perform better over the next couple of years.

Interest rates are one factor, improving real incomes are far more important as that is what will drive a consumer recovery.

Boo is now a far leaner and more focussed business than it was a couple of years ago. Yet it still has the infrastructure to support significantly more than twice the current sales volumes.

Capex, extraordinary costs and amortization should all start to fall in the next few years and at the operational level Boo remains profitable.

There are obviously significant challenge from competition, potentially regulation and maybe some unknowns.

However, it seems to me the balance of opportunity is now swinging favourably.

Doesnt mean Boo will be successful, there are no guarantees in this game, but there is certainly the probability of profitable growth that isn't reflected in a share price just above net balance sheet assets

If you do more than 20 trades per month HL is £5.99 per trade and no fees.

Beware of the 'free" platforms, they loan shares to shorts

I wonder if the page you have linked to is beta Lloyd and they are going to rebadge N26 infrastructure.

It seems very strange otherwise

Looks like a forced sale to me and still for more than the total market cap here

It's interesting that a cancellation and another one reported today.

Unless it's a short closing

Great to see some life coming back here with great news ahead and a significant uplift on volume.

More money available tomorrow so hope the sp doesn't do too much more today!

And more of the pointless goading daytrade

Why would anything you say ever upset anybody, your obsession with posting negative nonsense here is obvious.

Good to see you don't even understand the basics of RNS notification. Frasers only have to notify once they completed their latest buying round, which looks like it is mid flow.

Why are you obsessing about mortgage rates? Rents and mortgages will benefit this year, but the bigger benefit will come from real wage increases, reducing inflation and tax cuts. That's the reality,daytrade, your constant obsessive trolling doesn't change that

Still trying to goad and create arguments daytrade.

Let's talk about real wage increases, lower inflation, lower energy bills, NI cuts. None of those things will make a difference at all to disposable income will they?

What makes you think Frasers aren't currently buying. Published volumes are tiny, Frasers buy over weeks not hours.

Inflation at a 30 month low, interest rate cuts must surely be coming, with hopefully a change for the better here

Propping up and absorbing failing brands, all through funds that Boohoo don't have, and doing it all on the never-never...

Isn't that the exact same mistake that they Boohoo been making for several years?

Nice rant Bon Scott, although as per usual it's lacking in basic truth.

All of the brands Boo purchased, other than PLT, came from operating profit. PLT was funded by an issue of equity not credit. PLT has always been profitable, Debenhams is now profitable.

Still your faux rage is mildly amusing so keep it up.
