@Smokeytime That my frendish friend is up to you...and your better half. That said, don't be too quick to hit th sell button. JD Sports is one of a very small handful of stocks that are seriously under-valued. IMO & DYOR

@StressedOut1 'as stated by the sage of Oxford'.

Surely you mean the 'Oracle of Oxford'...

The increase in tension between the US and Iran has been a tempoary set-back for many stocks today. I have added £20,000 today, and will be happy to add heavily should the JD Sports share price fall to stupid levels.

@Garonne You have a short memory. Remember Prudential Plc - you said the same then. Yet it climed from £6.00 to over £12. It is always darkest before the dawn. Have faith my friend. Buy and/or top up while JD Sports is at its lows. Enjoy the opportunity to buy while it lasts.

@Smokeytime I just added an extra 16532 JD Shares for £10,900 at .6556p. But shhhh, mum's the word.

@Smokeytime I just added 16635 JD Shares for £11,000 at .6576p. But shhhh, don't tell anyone. Lol

I know how Pentland’s holding has increased. The point I made was it has increased. If Pentland were unhappy they would have decreased by now. Instead they hold firm. Enough said.

@dwam The lower the JD Sports share price, the more JD Sports can purchase under their buy-back scheme. If Pentland were unhappy, they would have reduced their position. Instead Pentland have held, and increased their position from 51% to 54.9% lately. Winner-winner chicken dinner!

@Percypipe59 Although we have our difference of opinion at times. I agree that buying JD Sporst at these extreme lows of 66-69p is a non brainer.

The recent sell-off when the Chair announced he would leave at the next AGM was blown out of proportion i.e. oversold.

US-Iran war now on positive terms.

JD Sports to announce results more or less in line with market expectations, especially on US revenues and free cash will drive the JD Sports share price up from its recent lows.

When US-Iran war is over, the world economies will recover faster than most think and retail sales will reflect new-found consumer confidence.

JD Sports to increase from Tuesday 5 May onwards. You heard it here first...not for the first time! GLA

@Percypipe59 You posted recently: 'Dwam, You write complete nonsense. Probably best you do leave.'

At least @dwam posts about JD Sports.

Whereas @TetleysDad posts NOTHING about JD Sports, and instead posts nonsence about another stock on the JD discussion board. Yet you do not correct @TetleysDad in any way shape or form. Quite the contrary, you 'welcome' his nonsence on some random stock that has ZERO to do with JD Sports...?!

@Two Tier Kier' Percy Piper comes to mind.

@bruce27 On 13 March you posted: 'Garonne, it's Friday, why not go to the pub and bore everyone with your political views. This is the Jd Sports comments.'

Yet now you are encouraging @TetleysDad to post waffle about a stock completely unrealated to JD Sports...?

You ought to follow your own advice to @Garrone...and tell @TetleysDad 'This is the JD Sports comments'.

'Two-Tier Keir' Brucey comes to mind.

I happen to agree with @Carrot13 who posted recently how pathetic idiots (such as @TetleysDad) appear on the JD discussion board to trump other stocks...

@Percypipe59 @bruce27 Why bother to have the dedicated JD Sports discussion board only for some random to trump a different and completely unrelated stock on it. Based on your posts - the JD Sports discussion board ought to be a free for all on all stocks, which then makes the JD Sporst discussion board unfit for purpose. I suggest that if you are so interested in whatever @TetleysDad has to say on his pumped-up and ramped-up posts that you visit that discussion board, rather than encourage him to post such waffle here.

Leave the JD Sporst discussion board to JS Sports Plc. Otherwise, why bother visiting this board?!

@TetleysDad Your promotion of another stock on the JD Sports discussion board is nothing short of pathetic. Reported.

Indeed Pentland are pulling the JD Sports strings.

For example, if the combined BOD wanted the CEO sacked - usually but not always down to poor performance - then the Chair would be the bearer of that bad news. However, the Chair obviously did not read the script/room properly, and Pentland as majority shareholder then stepped in. To me, it sounded like a personality (or communication issue i.e. lack thereof) clash between the CEO and Chair. Once Pentland stepped in, the BOD fell into line sharply. The result was the CEO stays and the Chair goes at the next AGM.

Summary: Pentland are obviously happy with the performance and direction that the CEO has taken the company to date. Therefore. if Pentland as majority shareholder is happy to date, then other shareholders ought to be happy also.

At this low entry price of 66-69p, I am very happy shareholder indeed.

@dwam 'I'd leave the UK in a heartbeat if I could find somewhere else to live'.

I heard Rwanda is a safe haven...but as yet not popular with certain immigrants who arrive to the UK from teh war torn country of...France! So Rwanda could be worth a try...before it becomes too popular i.e. after UK Reform is voted in at the next General Election. ;-)

One thing is certain, if JD Sports results and Q1 update are in line with market expectations on 7 May, the share price will rocket upwards from these lows. IMO

@Littleaston Good buy - well done. Agreed that JD Sports can be traded. However, there will come a day when it will not be traded up and down like a yo-yo. A slow and steady rise will be on the cards in time...but it is hard to predict when that will commence, even for JO! Lol

Pentland Capital owns 54% of JD Sports (up from 51%). Institutions hold 34%. As a matter of course, should JD Sports sales increase (expect circa 10% in results), then more institutions will want to increase their holdings...hence slow and steady rise in share price at some point. The general public (includes retail investors) own circa 12% of JD Sports...probably trading in and out mostly.

Pentland Capital are in the drivers seat, hence their recent decision to support the CEO over the Chair, which was approved by the BOD.

Pentland will do well out of JD Sports medium-long term - and they know it. They are already up to 54% ownership.

Plenty to play for with JD Sports at these lows of 66-69p. IMO

@Littleeaston JD Sports rose from a low of 66.0p to close at 67.30p today. Could be bumpy tomorrow as some investors pick up a bargain prior to results on 7 May, while others sell prior to the Early May Bank Holiday Weekend. JD Sports to rise next week. IMO & DYOR

@DenFos What a blatant plug...desperado.

@Carrot13 I agreed with your comment about woke. Far too many businesses are still pushing it. Go woke, go broke. IMO (and those of the silent majority).

@Garrone JD Sports dropped to 66p at 10.21am today. I hope - like smart investors as myself - that you filled your boots! Honestly, I do not think you have the stomach for investing in the stock market. You worry far too much. Remember when Prudential was £6.00 and I called that at the low and predicted it would climb - it rose to £12. As I have said a few times now, this week (last week in April) is the time to buy into JD Sports. Next week (first week in May) JD Sports, from Tuesday 5 May will rise from the ashes. Listen and learn my friend.
