reckon thats also the next victim...check out the 12 month chart..(expensive and limited stock)....next I reckon are Cook, Millets (maybe blacks), ....gosh the list goes on....think robert dyas and Holland and Barrett will survive....not much else
and then Laura Ashley.....others I reckon for the shop of the chops is Cook, millets, etc
I'm afraid Laura Ashley will be the next casualty....look at the graph for starters....products too expensive and rather limited....stores always empty...
This is low but dont think it will die....get rid of the stores and use other channels....set up agreements with Homebase or B&Q etc...and obviously go online sending samples out to customers as required....the stores are dreadful...
Carpets are still and will always be required but they need decent branding....market products with leading brands e.g. National Trust, William Morris, RHS, and designers....get rid of the iffy brands and go up market....
Would I invest...really risky but we could see this climb above �1 again I'm sure....one investment for the brave

Good news for this division...can this be replicated in the UK....I see no reason why not..
Yes retail market is on its knees in the UK but look at the rubbish retailers going to the wall....the writing was on it for years...also everyone making comments about Carphone...this is just a small area of the business...which is truly pan European...and these are displaying green shoots of recovery....still bullish and think we'll be back above �2 and above �2.50 in 12 months..all IMHO
192!!...this has to be a buying opportunity....I have bough and sold these a few times selling at 225....
Is there something we're not being told....or general market malaise?
It has no online capability....its literally under water ,,,,closing its key channels to market is suicide (even if they are the most loss making)...i still think they'll be no takeover...
I used to short this a few years ago at the �6 mark.....cant believe the price now....its looking very dicey and who on earth would be interested in a business with few prospects....I think this will join the ranks of insolvents very soon.
This has been a GREAT trading share between 175 and 225....but I just cant see how it will break this deadlock...if it falls will purchase a bundle at 180 and perhaps take the yield...stagnation at 215
Llloy I havent traded as this seems stuck in the same deadlock 65-72...everyone and their mother is stating this being worth>�1...but I'm not a believer....
