Really can't believe these were 10 per cent down on very good results. Inexplicable really, but at least it presented an opportunity to buy some quality shares. Perhaps this momentum will continue....
Sainsburys workers ought to be asking for 200% incentive pay rises to mirror the trebling of the CEOs own pay packet. The CEOs own focus appears to be driven by taking a bigger slice of a diminishing pie for himself rather than growing the top line or size of the pie. 'Saving to invest' in your own pay packet at others expense will only do harm
Used to own highland gold. Bought some yesterday having waited somewhat patiently to buy so I can also own some gold shares once again. Kept a bit aside in case it dips a lot further. The divi alone suggests this is a good entry point for serious investors
Argos had 700 million in cash, 1.5 billion in inventories or stock & a sizable loan book. Also included was the habitat brand. Always thought it remarkable how little Sainsbury paid for them.

Roll up, Roll up,.. get your free money here! This share only really ever seems to up. Long may the BOD continue making progress

just sold. I think this will be a lot lot lot lower tomorrow. Given up on this.

Better putting any money into plant impact rather than be caught in a spike here. In any case the might be overtaken by plant health. Both companies operate in an area which should continue to see growth.
When Homebase was purchased for 900m, Argos CEO said "We have a deal that will provide value - there is upside in combining buying scale". Clearly he was wrong with the now confirmed sale of Homebase at 340m. In buying Argos, let's hope that Mike Coupe doesn't have the same talent in destroying value as Terry Duddy did.
Home Retail under the weak leadership of John Walden are really struggling. Shorters making hay. Maybe a Star Wars inspired effort to populate the world with plastic toys may help this toy retailer. Or maybe an uplift in disposable incomes from low inflation will reverse a seemingly inevitable downward trend
