Would love to give it ago but looks like a sure fire way of me to loose money quickly.

How can I be happy and miserable in the same message, is it just because I gave a different view 😉. Im not disagreeing fully, same could said that all the money j have invested I've already paid income tax on but not everyone has so there has to be a catchall. I think it's a stroke of genius getting it even if people have lost money, considering most PIs loose money on shares, think of all the good things they spend it on. 🤣 now get out and watch the sunset.

Afternoon Fender, you could easily argue it the other way, look how little tax we pay for doing SFA buying shares. Think of your pot and today's movements, if you bought on the low and sold now you'd only be looking at £200 in tax but made a profit of £600, all for a few clicks. How many people are invested for 0.5%?

I don't mind paying tax, I mind how it's spent, or is that wasted? 🤔

Good call fats, ooh M&S Christmas food, food of the gods, to start I'll have a good helping of mid year results and Christmas trading update for dessert, in between I shall simply feast, I may even make it out of the food hall.

Well said both, Carrington has been̈ posting in here long than I have and has been clear and consistent, showing either incredible skill or luck, Carrington, if it luck please can you buy a lottery ticket and post numbers 😉

I am intrigued by your buy, do you see an end to recent range? 360 is giving a problem but the attack appears different this time, here's hoping.

Well reasoned argument, case closed.

Would have been nice close on the weeks high but I'll take just short of 5% this week, long may it continue.

Never worry how someone manages their investments, in part that's what these BBs are for discuss pros and cons of the company but also investing styles. I appreciate hearing what people do, whether that's skill or luck, my luck this week was nearly selling a chunk here to put on OCDO first thing Monday...finger hovered over the sell button but fortunately something said no, stick with our girl atleast until Christmas trading update and £4+

I know, well done ontheup, don't know what you saw but you did. Let's hope we're both right by end of week.

359

Looks like a very good call, amazed it slipped below 350, well done.

Shorts have reduced, albeit only by 0.05%, hopefully a start with more to come for September and only two months for half year results.

Deutsche Bank Research cuts Marks & Spencer price target to 435 (450) pence - 'buy'

They've increased their short again, and the SP went up, there may be trouble ahead...for them, shame.

Morning oFender, no LTH has lost a fortune here but made it, it's simply their investment is not worth as much now as a few months ago, they're comfortable to weather the storm as they see it recovering to and above previous levels. The only people who lost money here, as you know, we're those who bought just before the attack and got spooked and sold as it was shorted. People have been blamed for that here for giving a positive view, OK some over the top, but ultimately it was the shorters that did the damage, hard to praise them for making money from it!

Hope you get in at a good price, doesn't look like that'll be under 350 now.

Marshall Wace have increased their short, now the highest they've held or anyone else since couple at the end of 2022 and they were only open for a few days. Let's hope the same here and the reverse gives us a spur next week.

Would love to know the figures now but must cede a negative response. Even using all my fingers I'm still struggling to justify £300m, we've made a loss in Q1, like the Loch Ness monster i won't believe it until I see it. 😆

As an aside, just checked my account as hadn't considered the divi, pleasantly surprised. I'm going away for a few days and it's paid for, happy days...in the sun with family.

Gla, let's hope for a close above 350 for the weekend

Nothing better than a bit of SP guessing on a sunny day. Based on results we should be 425ish, even with cyber incident we should closer to 400, only thing holding us back is not knowing the final hit, as long as it's below 300m we should see 425, hopefully before mid year results, here's hoping.

Ohh, and it will be a Friday.

Fender, please don't take offence but you're clearly on the spectrum, and I don't just mean your computer, but that neither good or bad, it just is what it is.

WD, please keep posting, always good to have fresh takes, if someone doesn't want to read a long post they don't have to. Talking of long post I once sent a postcard from Cuba to UK, took three weeks, now that's a long post.

Gla, smile and wave, it's still summer.
