From what I see in the smaller shops I visit, the items on open display are right where the queue forms, making it easier for shoplifters to pinch stuff as they're hidden by the queue.

Not sure how they could change it as the small shops haven't enough room to lay it out any other way.

The queue blocks access to the displays as well, which doesn't help efficiency.

I guess bigger shops in busier areas is the only solution.

I sometimes use the one at the bus station in Aberdeen (they've recently moved to a bigger unit next door) and slow POS definitely a problem there.

Last time there was a queue right out the door, and I could see people turning away rather than facing a long wait.

Interesting that the buyback continues at current price.

88E has had a 1 for 25 consolidation, so should be up 2500%

I wonder of it's some sort of glitch with the data feed.

The fallers and risers boards have loads of 0 traded shares dominating today.

I think you've asked AI the wrong question.

This makes more sense, but I've no idea if it's true.

"A "zero volume trade" refers to a trade that is executed without any actual movement of shares or securities in the market. This can occur when a closing price is published, or when a trade is part of a larger, offsetting transaction."

There seemed to be a big seller for a while, which I thought was causing the price to drop, and a short on 24th April.

I was hoping for a a boost when this moved to main market, I'm guess PE stepped in before that happened.

I was thinking 30% seemed a lot for a broker upgrade.

Could get interesting with two after them.

Strange 1730p closing UT yesterday.

Utilities seen as a defensive stock in troubled times.

It's in the RNS comments.

"Please note the reason for this notification is that, on 31 March 2025, Parvus Asset Management Europe Limited transferred its entire investment management activity to Parvus Asset Management Jersey Limited."

Something will turn up.

This is looking similar to PPP.

Presumably the seller is still Premier Miton.

Is it possible JP Morgan know PM will be selling more, hence the short?

Knocking on for 12 years I've been waiting. Maybe next year, eh?

I've looked at TEP before, but the thing that puts me off investing in them is the multi-level marketing system that UW uses.

It just looks ripe for a mis-selling scandal to me.

An interesting idea. I like Greggs, I often nip in for a sausage roll or steak bake, it's my goto choice for a quick snack on the go.

The only drawback is the queues at busy times, where I'm stuck behind folk placing big orders.

A machine that could dispense the popular items and use contactless payments would save them and me a lot of time.

All it would need would be a revolving series of trays, loaded from behind the counter.

Looks like I'm the fool for holding.
