Fforest 359 is a very good call but I will suggest 361. JJ

Imagine MKS will be happy to lose this deal; unlikely that its been making much of a positive to the bottom line. Maybe a few larger Costas could be bought and rebranded as M&S coffee shops. JJ

Lucky I retired from the NatWest in 1997 the doormen at Coutts still wore the full works. Good luck with WHS, I'm not up to speed with who owns what there. I bought MKS a few years back as a recovery punt and that has done well. Provided ones portfolio is spread its good to have a few gambles. If Putin would stop his project then my EUA might show a nice profit again. All the best. JJ

This is an amazing rise in the last 12 months, can anyone point to any reports which throw more light on it? I inherited the shares back in 2012 and have not paid much attention to them. JJ

There is every chance that we will close at £3.60 today. JJ

Lucky is particular happy as he holds investments in RR & NWG which are out performing their competitors. And to cap it all he supports Crystal Place who have won two trophies within 6months.He is now able to walk across the Thames without the need for one of the many bridges. JJ

£5.60 to end the week would be fantastic. JJ

I would like to see MTRO slowly rise to 140p by the moment we get FYR, there appears to be a strong chance that it will get there. Talk of dividends any time soon seems an unlikely prospect but time will tell. Good luck all who have stayed the course. JJ

For me I expected a harsher right down of the MKS share price day, and in fact its largely bounced back. With a bit of crystal ball gazing I'm expecting it to recover rise to £3.60 as we go into the weekend, we shall see. JJ

Likely to upset the market, we could see a drop in MKS today, an opportunity for some. JJ

1p but cannot see it being paid at least until 2027. JJ

I'm always ready to consider a different view. For MKS I tend to take more notice of the appearance of the stores and the products they are selling including online. When travelling on our motorway network I take breaks where I see M&S on the display board. My experience shows a very positive picture now in 2025. I am confident MKS will be above £4 in the next 6mths and will get to £5 and beyond. Getting caught up in all the figures is for others. I first bought shares almost 50 years ago and my method has worked a lot of the time; its been fun. Good luck all. JJ

BCymru to suggest a 53% gain is needed to get to £5.20 ignores a lot. My view is that MKS would be at £4 or more but for the cyber incident. As I see it the question to ask is " could it have gone from £4 to £5.20 over two years?" and my answer is yes. Don't be surprised if in the next 3/6 months this is above £4 again, and from there it could very well rise to £5.20 in the subsequent 18mths. Do take a look at the MKS share price around Feb '26 as it will be above £4 and on its way to £5 and beyond. Assuming we don't have a stock market crash. Not advice DYOR but IMO worth a dabble. Pleasant dreams. JJ

Early '26 should see us at £6 and expect to end the year around £7.

The recovery has taken a long time but I'm happier now with the value of my shareholding.

Perhaps the Gills will win promotion! JJ

For those not holding M&S it really does appear a good moment to start building a holding, and yes DYUR. Good luck JJ

We could see £5.50 this week, exciting times. JJ

Expect the November update, whereas anything provided sooner is likely to be riven with caveats which might produce a negative outcome. Let the bod sort things out, its not long to wait.

Patience is a virtue, less than 3 months to get an update. JJ

Expecting £6 around time of FYR i.e. Feb '26. JJ

WDGann from what I understand of the content of your post you could apply the theories to any share. I prefer to look at the business. Back in the 1980's I told a few people that M&S was a troubled business and it was only a matter of time. Probably a bit more than 5 years ago I saw M&S as an exciting business and invested. At around that time it was clear that the JL Group was the troubled business. The recent issues with M&S will make it much stronger, I believe that one can safely invest in M&S now and expect to show a profit over the short/medium and long term. Yes DYOR, but look at the strengths and weaknesses of the business as well as particular sectors of the market most relevant to the share. £4 is coming early in the new year but maybe sooner. JJ
