Good morning , the big 15p drop today comes as a surprise even to me ,and yes I am the guy that got it very wrong advising a sell 2 weeks ago I have already held my hands up to making a a verybad judgement call (rare for me TBH) but this drop is definitely not! soley down to profit taking as Carrington has suggested and I think Carrington knows this? I think it’s down to a very manipulated hike in the last week in order for the big boys to win .. I am genuinely sorry for those who waited patiently who bought in last night and overnight lost heavily. I want back in too but am in no rush to buy back in and will wait till 345/350 which I now would be good value and a chance of a little profit by the end of the month ..I’m a trader don’t forget .

Ps JJ like the others that put a like to your last post I too could not understand Neil’s post ? not sure how AI comes into it and what would that purpose be hay ho .I hope he is well and be back in the ring soon

Hg44 Im garbage ?? Is there any need to be so nasty ? I gave an opinion and sold my stock at 350 clever of jds 15 to point out on this occasion I was wrong and I thank him for sharing my mistake .. I am very ocurious why it’s ok for you to post STRONG BUY today at 376 But I’m not allowed to post a sell opinion ,can you explain your hostility please ?

Ida’s 15 for gods sake grow up stop throwing your toys out the pram , have you read my last 3 posts ? have I shown any nastiness to you you ?? no so stop being nasty not my fault you sold at wrong time .. I have the same rights as everyone on here ,I you still never thanked me for advising against a buy at 397 .. If someone like me is enough to scare you then I pity you .

Good Question Forest which palm am I wishing to scratch …. 20 years ago I would be back in up to my ears ,older now and less of a Maverick player these days getting slow I guess ,that 43m 10p turbulence this afternoon threw me a little need to investigate ..I’m just going to sit back relax and watch the show for now a little sad in the fact I’m not at the party but looking to buy hopefully very soon . Regards Fender

News Invester your post at 13.33pm Is one of the best I’ve read on here I hope to read more from you .you were ! very unlucky to have bought that day @377 just that one day out would of helped and a bit of long road back but getting close and who knows profit too ..

And Jim Jam liked your post too ,you are encouraging me to get back in with Marks very naughty ,I’m in the dark here @365 ( not like me lol ) with no words of wisdom this week it’s a bit of lottery as are many stocks on lse right now .

Ps BTW new investor RR was another stock I trader on regular almost always selling too early taking profit only to pay more a couple days later , …. Fly High Fender

Hi bad new investor..thanks for the mention yes I dropped the ball here sold at 350 a couple of weeks ago , must say I’m very surprised sp went the other way after I sold..looks like I won’t get a chance to buy back in soon….Im pleased for the LTH it’s been disappointing 6 months so let’s hope this is the recovery you were banking on well done for holding out

Hi Bad news Investor …yes i agree in all you say as its honest and factual .. but for the fact you are talking about the performance for year 23-24 .snd they have done amazing ! Stealing market share both on Food and Fashion .. but hey ! I’m the most successful and the most disliked poster on this forum so don’t listen me but .when the analysts predicted 450 - 500 in October they did not build in the factor that the climate and conditions would change by such a mind boggling amount , yes M&S is a fantastic well run buisness no doubt;… buy away at 350 sure pretty safe but risky as bigger chance of 340 than 370 in the next couple months .. but hey what do I know we are all guessing , but you can shorten the odds by believing and drawing on your experience..good luck

Burgeseb hi,as no one else has bothered to answer your question I’ll attempt to but this is of course only a suggestion ,

The M&S share price has stagnated around 340/350 for weeks now simply because nothing ! ,no conditions will be better for this food and fashion retailer in 25 over 24! when they did ever so well ,one of the biggest running costs ,as you know in April labour nic and min wage both will have big increase ,havin said that M&S will continue to make good profit just not quite as good as 24 , and in my opinion that’s not where we are at 349 and not 400+ I wish you well Fender

That’s me out for now 18000 ,with a take home 62k … sold at almost 350 yipeeeee! not a greedy man and on a Friday too! who would have thought it .. thanks for the banter you are a no doubt clever lot and I mean that .. JDs 15 you really need to man up a little !it’s a tough world and stop being such a wimp ! recommending every single post that promotes your failing M&S stock ,not decent my advice stop sucking up all the time it’s pitiful.….Fenders M&S forecast for year end 370 -390 at best with lows along the way of 309 -319 that I will be buying in at with pleasure , why ? it’s simple nothing Whatsoever!! is better for this retailer in 25 over 24 if there is can someone please enlighten me ? happy to listen … you have 90 minutes left today Sell! Sell! Sell! you know it makes senses and buy back 10p less in the next 2 weeks patience is everything..Caio and I wish you all nothing but but good profit but take my advice and Sell M&S tonight

Then you are a very lucky man , I don’t but not complaining for a second ! I am genuinely happy for you may it continue.

No comment, only may I say look up the word respect then read all my posts , again JDs I’m sorry for your loss but health before wealth in my code

Forest you really disappoint me with this so disrespectful, yes I’m in my 70s what a crime ! you have your laughs .. trust me you don’t want my attention

Oh JDs we are so two different people and investors this last post you have just said yet again against me ! as I keep saying not my fault ! your holding in MS has dropped so drastically.. unexpected I agree but get over it , man up ! It’s only money ..would not of happened to you had you listened to me I could of saved you 1000s ! had you cashed in run for the hills weeks ago @ 378 like I did granted I sold at a small loss that week .hey you could of bought them all back today at 348 !!! listen to yourself for gods sake You attack me once more for no reason than just being good at this I will block you

Not really JDs would that not completely pointless on a debating site? …How about one honest and factual Bb with using posts to help investors

Hi Fatsuperman in reply I enjoyed your post a good read and yes of course I’m aware my observations will affect all retail competitors in the coming year not just M&S they will all struggle to do better in a very competitive costly market but at least as you point out on a level playing field, this will give some comfort.

What I don’t approve on here is the on and on positivity every day no matter how bad the stock does posts saying Things like M&S up 30p since January whoopy ! yet never a mention M&S down 60p ! since November If you bought in January well done but many bought at 390 + not so great for them ,also 11p a massive 3% down yesterday this almost a whole years net interest on savings for some retired folk like Me! and that’s in just one day ,what was all that about ?? You can’t blame the market this time LSE as FTSE didn’t lose anything…also little mention of the crash from 405 down to 320 in just a few weeks ..

I so wish all you LTH well ,I assume 90% have done well on M&S especially since the 95p days 3 years and this is great , I too done good but my game though a little exciting on a daily basis it comes with danger as my margin are small and costs high but the rewards over last 12 months have been excellent!

Fats I have taken your points onboard every day is a school day for me ,played the stocks for 40 years initial like your good self a LTH paying a broker commission,till I discovered cheap online trading 20 years ago and never looked back ,but on my tax return 2 of these years I lost one very badly but as some here pointed out of course you can’t win em all .

Although personally I’m a trader not LTH I’m kinda both as my family company where I am the major share holder has just handed its portfolio over to St James Place to manage as directors getting too old now ,OMG that has been some paperwork for my brother beleive me , 37 different holdings involved many held for over 30 years receiving an average annual dividend income of around 2.5% …This handover has been so long and drawn out I assume to protect against money laundering, they needed the life story and history of all 7 directors.

Stoping now for fear of you all to sleep and ty for your time

Best Fender

That was me that put a like to your post Chilting , you spoke your mind and think you are right , ( be careful they don’t like the truth on here Shhhh)

Hello Forest .. and thank you for being the 1st person to give an answer , 1st again I must strongly say I am and have never been a shorter ,disgusting people bad karma wishing ill on others trying to make a living … you disagree with me informing people on the analyst being manipulated and misled really!? Sorry I say with respect aren’t you being a little naive ,do you believe every stock traded on the LSE is exempt from corruption and control I assure it’s not !

And ofcourse I’ll answer your question infact im glad you asked . Where do you want me to begin ? 7% rise in Nic costs , Big rise on min wage , world uncertainty, pensioners conned into losing their winter allowance , inflation at a true 8% not the twaddle 2.5% this lying government brag about in order not to pay pensioners 8% on the triple lock, you don’t beleive me ? Look at your shopping trolly year on year on 20 products ? look at your house insurance ? Look at your water bills , look at rail travel 2.5% ! really I’ve done spreadsheet it’s 8% , also they are stuck as can’t put food prices up they are at the absolute max , I shop there cause I can but ! £11.29 for 2 small lamb chops raw to feed 1 person…

Enjoyed our honest chat Forest have to go but believe nothing you have mentioned convinces me M&S profits will be better in 25 than 24 ? cause this is what you are promoting at best will Finnish year around 395 at very ! best regards Fender

Corondion you bring a tear to my eye been posting the odd one on here for a couple of years and no one has ever asked my opinion or should I say listened .From info you have given me if you short on your position I would def say hold! But hey ! If you were lucky enough to buy on that day in Jan @319 and can clear 10% in a month mmmmm tricky as this is a low average for the last 10 days Me? I’d hold let it rise back a few pence sell and be patient looking to buy back at 3% less may take a couple of weeks , buy hey ! Your money fella ..good luck

JDs I just might if it makes 6% I’m more than happy , but it’s not all about the SP for me JDs , I just M and S to get the high st recognition it deserves … But hey !no one has answered or even given me a opinion on Why !! now 321 sp , yet they all have plenty to post and say encouraging others to invest , comment please if you can .. to my post Why has M&S with it’s phenomenal posts share price crashed from a recent high of 402 , I know why as bored with saying was way way way overheated and their is nothing positive costs wise for Mand S so how we gonna have this brilliant year !!!?? , nothing is in their favour or if there is please enlighten me

No not your post I meant Neil’s … am I correct you can’t edit on this site ??
