Still childishly pointing out spelling mistakes, instead of confronting your real issues?! Some things will never change!

I'd advise you to confront the reality of your enormous losses, but like a true hypocrite, you can't produce a shred of evidence to confirm that you are actually invested. Imagine that!

Umar maybe? Seems to be the go-to explanation on here.

Share price has dropped from 415p to 28p. Ninety-four percent down.

And yet the rationale from the usual suspects is: The brokers are wrong, pessimists are wrong, published articles are wrong, economic statistics are wrong, shorts who have ridden this all the way down are in fact wrong. Crying inconsolably into their wads of cash.

Absolutely staggering.

Seems that you let others go doing all the work, trading4good, then revel in savaging them when they do post. What kind of contribution are you willing to make? Nothing of note for a long time!

Just a eminder: Do you have any investment here, trading4good? You've never provided any evidence of your own. Likewise, evidence of market manipulation?

Paste it if you wish top make a positive contribution, rather than abusing people all the time.

I wish there was something more positive to post, but alas not. So here you are:

https://www.ii.co.uk/analysis-commentary/will-these-three-former-top-stocks-ever-be-fashionable-again-ii529376

"Will these three former top stocks ever be fashionable again?

The glory days for these fashion retailers look well and truly over. Long-term shareholders will be praying for a miracle, but might there be something here for new investors?"

"A focus on profitable growth meant revenues for the six months to 31 August fell 17% to £729.1 million but the gross margin edged up 90 basis points to 53.4%. Sales are forecast to fall by up to 17% across the financial year, triggering a fresh slide for shares.

The AIM-listed stock fell a further 1.8p to 28.9p today as Deutsche Bank cut its 2024 earnings forecast by 15% and slashed its target price by 42% to 25p.

The bank said: “The reinvestment of gross margin gains into lower prices and better delivery does not appear to be having a material impact on sales growth at this stage, which suggests the sales weakness relates to a deterioration in the boohoo competitive position.”"

Thirteen and a half thousand posts, trading4good, and easily a third of that being disparaging abuse of others. Not one for self-analysis, eh?

Speaking of breaching LSE guidelines, there is the small matter of your manipulation claims. It would be great if you could substantiate those claims as well as provide evidence of your holdings, as you so often challenge others to provide.

"Nooo, I never did nuffin to nobody, did I". Giving it the big innocent, when everybody knows otherwise.

It'll be £6.50 soon enough. In Umar he trusts.

Cleveas... so take him on and confront his behaviour, if you have the courage.

Cliveas, for your information, it is trading4good who continually demands that others produce evidence of their investment. Just holding up the mirror!

So sorry Cliveas, I didn't post the entire article!

LBC article this morning echoes that of the BRC:

https://www.lbc.co.uk/business/616f309119a340449180a70e08025b37/

"...warm temperatures stretching late into the month meant sales of autumnal clothing, knitwear and coats have yet to materialise..."

"...inflation is still significantly higher than recent historical standards and sales volumes remain down year on year..."

"...online sales growth continued to fall, with just health, beauty and jewellery recording positive figures..."

"...September signals the 26th month of continuous online sales decline, with retailers hoping for a strong Black Friday to reverse their fortunes..."

Frustrating environment in which to be growing or securing profitability.

Would you look at that... trading4good's counterargument is to take umbrage about a capital letter. Child-like behaviour from a washed-up board bully. An uninvested one seemingly, due to the inability to produce some evidence!

Trading4good, do you have any actual evidence that manipulation is occurring? Not just your (ill-advised) opinion: real evidence. What you're saying is libellous, you know. And as you're constantly chastising others concerning the LSE rules, I remind you that users may not "post misleading or false statements regarding the share price and performance".

Sorry for not pasting the entire LSE terms & conditions for balance, Cliveas.

You're very welcome, Trading4good. Was that the day where you hid for most of the day because the negativity of the report dampened even your irrepressable bullishness?

By the way, Cliveas committed an unforgivable error: he stated "ie", and it should have been "i.e.". Please go easy on him.

And one could argue that you are attempting to downplay the gravity of that further anticipated 12-17% revenue fall.

... And so what? Should every single article be quoted in absolute entirety?

If anything, Frasers sees it as ripe for asset stripping.

Published in Drapers today:

https://www.drapersonline.com/news/frasers-group-becomes-largest-boohoo-shareholder

"Boohoo Group revenues plummeted by 17% to £729.1m in the six months to 31 August, with a further 12 to 17% drop forecast for the year ending February 2024."

Oh dear me... ANOTHER 12-17% revenue fall predicted, on top of that reported a few days ago? No wonder the likes of Level 5, Okehurst, Uncle Doug are slyly pushing their profitability projections further and further out. Sure one of tis lot was saying something about 2027.

Yes, Trading4good, I am invested. And very dissatisfied at the amateurish management of the company. Are you?
