Calm down. Good luck with your £2.45.

In 2011 (so not long after the GFC) KGF made the best part

of £700 Million on pre tax.

Factor in inflation since and their current profitability arguably paints a vulgar picture.

Their list of excuses and reasons for trading disappointment

appears endless.

Large shorts are not worried about your long either!.

Really ..?

* it was Lord Lucan's nickname , 'Lucky' - I thought

you would get the reference.

Lucky Lucan

..'unmatched', wow - we are not worthy, eh ;.

If you're asking me, I have no idea what the future SP

is going to do.

I'm not short and I do not go short individual stocks.

As I hold ABF, I keep an eye on UK non food retailers.

Do you have a position here, if I may ask, thanks.

Appreciate if you would rather not say.

At these SP levels, which some posters maintain are an absolute bargain (and may they are) you might expect multiple BOD member to be buying hand over fist..

The late 1980's onwards in UK stock market terms

and even with this timeframe I can recall very few

instances of acquisition activity within an arguably compressed

timeframe.

This requires extraordinary quality of senior management to

embed synergies and run efficiently.

May be JD is up to the job, however in this context,

the market is understandably cautious.

* I did wonder - and thanks.

Tom, I post on JD occasionally (as I don't hold).

Today is newsworthy so to be expected and

yes, some of the comments are unpleasant, unfortunately.

42 total posts, of which 38 are on JD Sports.

You have been registered on London South East for a little over 2 weeks..?. Is that accurate.

Excuse the typos - still no Edit option on LSE.

I don't taken the remotess pleasure in seeing PI's

down on an investment with their hard earned,

but Jesus wept, to people not have experience of

how arguably veracious acquisition driven growth usually ends +

not well in many cases, there are always exceptions, etc.

Luck to holders

The Trump dump May (emphasis on may) be about

priced in, for now.

That's not to underestimated the ugliness of mass deportations

for US agriculture and the US citrus crops (I'm not ignoring the human cost - that's a different discussion).

Then we have tarrifs, possibly.

I get the impression that many Trump supporters hear.. tarrifs..

and for some reason relate this to lower prices, the opposite is usually the case, particularly given US labour shortages.

Always worth checking..

This is not one for Fats I'm afraid, give me ABF (Primark)

any day over a highly (understatement) acquisitive business.

N/m

Market growing more cautious..?
