LOL - they seem to be doing pretty damn well with the current model as the quarterly results prove - you can deramp all you want but you have missed the boat - Bye Bye Loser !! By the way the so called partnering trial - why not? we have the money and the stores might as well use it to make more money - called diversification as the booker deal proves !!

IS - I was in at 1.23 Read and Weep 130% up today and could be 30p by the end of the week - still you carry on with you attempt to rally support for your IA - as far as Arsenal is concerned he is a true investor and puts his money where his mouth is - unlike you it would appear LOL !

Tesco reported one particular statistic which is the best measure of any business and that is profit before tax was up 667.6% from £71m to £562m This share will explode and the initial 1% Dividend is forecast to rise to 3% for the year Good if not exceptional dont you think? and also these are HARD FACTS not pathetic musings and speculation !!

Sales are up, profits are up, cash generation continues to strengthen and net debt levels are less than half what they were when we started our turnaround three years ago. All of this is possible because of the focus we have placed on serving shoppers a little better every day. Our offer is more competitive and more customers are shopping at Tesco. Today’s announcement that we are resuming our dividend reflects our confidence that we can build on our strong performance to date and in doing so, create long-term, sustainable value for all of our stakeholders.”

I simply refer you to the previous quarterly results which speak for themselves as does the rise from 1.50 to he current S.P. Level as for your comment on Bread and beans you really are making a fool of yourself. The SP did not drop back to the 1.50 - 1.00 mark as you and your buddies predicted and you are now cast as a bitter and foolish poster who has missed the boat - Ha Ha Loser !

I rest my case - comments from an established Troll who is not invested and a serial De Ramper. Also the content is not true and all I have to say is I refer him to our last results

Carl and Furry, my reason for berating WWT can be found on his posting history, he is not invested and despite the fantastic job that our BOD has done and refuses to agree that he is a complete *** He previously stated: No Dividend, No Profit, Increase in Pension Liability etc and most of all that the Booker deal would never happen - anyway I will try to not comment on him further as he is truly irrelevant !!. On the subject of the share price I would like to see us a 2.20 and think we might squeak it by the end of the year - here is hoping and GL

Good Luck Buddy and Very Well Done !!

TXR SXX and JLP - no divi and massive swings in the SP - however if that is your strategy one has to question why you spent all the time posting on this BB - which of course was to de ramp which you failed. You said the deal would never happen as you did about the Divi and now this is a stable and rising share and to boot the market leader by a long way. You will excuse me if I take no notice on your opinions relating to Tesco as they are and continue to be diametrically apposed to what is in fact what has happened. Still I wish you well for the future regardless of what happens !!

WWT - Yep being massively wrong and trying your best to massively de-ramp this has a tendency to make one pretend to be bored and have other very exciting alternatives - JLP for example

IS this BB is for investors and not a union soapbox platform - I presume you still have your freebie shares so your comments are welcome however this site is set up for the purpose of shareholder discussion and not for the hard core militant idiots who feel unable to get there views across to there membership in the normal manner.

Albertdrue12 closely followed by Oilliebear and Who Wrote This - all seem to have stopped posting - I wonder why???????????

Falling Knife - what was the name of that arrogant shorter that came on here saying that this would be at £1.50 by end of that week and £1 in 3 months also yelling Sell Sell Sell and Short Short Short - bet his shorts exploded LOL !!

Well Done ! PP

then that should seal the new bottom trading level and also we could see a steady uplift from there

Soup - that is a fantastic deal for the Posties unfortunately I think there position is much more short term from what I have read on this BB.

You Too but try to keep some shares in this as I really think this is set for £5 plus GL Jonjo

Charlie156 Arsenal can post what he wants and has no need to state when he places a trade or whether it is a buy or a sell. If you don’t like what he says then filter him (as I have done with a lot of the critically insane militants on here). May I suggest you concentrate on your own research and maybe you might learn something- I hope that the deal is formally done which will remove uncertainty and will also save a fortune in tea and biscuits and brown ale GL to you also

Average down to be fair until they deal with the Astor case this will not go anywhere. Trafigura does not give a toss because it is getting copper at a discount however a take off agreement that delivers a profit is ok by me. Get Astor done and dusted and this share should fly

To gather pace now as people wake up to what a good deal this is - 2.20 not far off now !!
