We have seen the past Barclays target price & how true was that was as Spideystreet would point out 〽

13p may come quicker than expected unless it was a forgone conclusion. 9p remains my target but there should be highs & lows on the way.

Next RNS will be news on PLT which may also disappoint those expecting something good.

Always stay positive - as Dan's plan still has a chance.

Here's a puzzler -

From the results, if they wrote off old stock & included US distribution closure as an exceptional item amounting to £26M, then claim that they reduced the stock inventory by £63M would this just be manipulated numbers? As to reduce your stock holding, you simple request the supplier to hold it until needed. Would the stock write off be within the £63M? If they are going for sales supplied direct from the suppliers shoppers may see a delay. Also the suppliers may not be exclusive to DEBS as in the case of REVB products . Also DEBS doesn't do well on "Pricerunner" for savvy shoppers. Trading will be tuff no matter what Dan flowers does.

Appears some here question the market manipulation of the buy & sell prices - what a nonsense, just like the dark trades of huge volumes suddenly on & off the ledger. All that conspiracy fluff likely to be blown around again. This is normal trading for this stock & you never get a better deal than the one you buy into. Sell before the SP drops is how it goes.

Looks like Carol made a candle for today. Well lets enjoy the rise be that a 3 or an 8.

Lots of hubris detected since the bad news was released & now everyone will look towards the light.

More communication to the market is needed as DEBS leadership are a distance bunch.

Share trade volumes are good at this point. SP hitting the 20s would be a special event.

As long as there is a feel good factor the SP will rise.

Reality is that debt is eating the profits like a war between faiths, sooner enough you may believe the other side.

Carol may have filled her boots (the "k" word was thought of) but to little to late. Akin to saying "I will return value to shareholders" while buying a token purchase at a cheap price. As fake as those counter balancers that some have attached to their chest.

An MCAP of 126M is on my list for DEBS. Naturally I prefer it to go skyward, but Dan's strategy has not worked its magic on me. A retailer in debt will usually go under. In the current world, these outfits manage to keep going as long as funds can be found. More money needs to come to the tills but the market is saturated with ideas & products.

thethington - a yesterday's post was for yesterday. Today's post is for today & predictions just sit on the fence. Some still have their dividends signs pinned to a wall. Might be a tombstone epitaph before that one sees the light.

She didn't buy enough IMO. Caught the market out & made a few more catch the BOO bus.

Another RNS tomorrow & all hear will be glowing with love ❣💖💖

Reality will kick hard soon enough so we await the inevitable .

Also suspect a change of shorts Qube been wearing the threads out on that one.

At least there is no immediate risk of going bust.

Debs decreased staff numbers, inventory, property - well all except Dan's bonus.

4m UT - not been that high for eons.

Results are very poor & the market has not yet absorbed the detail. Interesting to see that the profit line looks like 50% of the sales price of the goods sold which I find hard to believe. That EoY Results cost £600k - was that an express service?

A sharp drop tomorrow would be no surprise. Turnaround time is still years away.

Someone to note of all the warning signs & bought £70K worth this afternoon. Could be a strategy there. Short seller running low on shares!

I don't mean to be a "poop to the party" as you say in your English but market forces determine the success & profitability of Debenhams. As a trading organisation Debs can promote & show their wares while keeping operating costs low enough to determine a profit line. Dan flowers has not performed well to date. He has gone off on a jolly to promote himself & is ready to jump ship as soon as that offer appears. He holds JL legacy like a pram going downstream.

Shareholder comms is a closed door & the numbers for off the SP daily with no consequence. When the SP reaches 9p, a 50% gain would bring us back to today so start waving the flags for today looks like the future.

When the rules aren't followed - blame those not following the rules & you will probably be ignored.

Directors give the absolute minimal & less to shareholders / share incentive scheme holders.

The company has strategic failings that are not being addressed. Brands that are losing money require firm action as they cannot be held up by DEBS.

MA is not a saviour for anybody's fortune including his own. He works for the lowest denominator. There's also plenty denominators here too.

Plenty of bell pullers have rung out here - may get a bit faster this week.

frasers boohoo 2nd september 2024 price

While an exact share price for boohoo on September 2, 2024, is not available from the search results, it can be confirmed that Boohoo's stock was trading at a low price on that date. News reports from the time noted that Frasers Group had increased its stake in Boohoo to over 26% on September 2.

Key context around the Boohoo price on that date:

The stock had already fallen significantly. A report from late August 2024 described Boohoo's share price as having "slumped" in the weeks leading up to September. A later analysis in September cited a recent 52-week low of 26.48 pence.

The Frasers Group news contributed to volatility. The announcement that Frasers was increasing its stake was part of an ongoing and hostile battle between the two companies.

The stock was later capped at around 30p. A September 27, 2024, analysis of Boohoo's share price noted that the 55-day simple moving average was at 30.16p, with an August to September uptrend line at 27.54p. This suggests the price hovered in this range during that month.

Frasers was not acquiring Boohoo at this point. The increased stake was part of Frasers' attempt to influence Boohoo's management. A bid to install Mike Ashley as CEO was made the following month.

If in the last 24 hours you lightened your bank balance for some good old fashioned investment with DEBS & missed the warning signs (neon signs saying "Girls Girls Girls") well don't be surprised to come out with small change.

What goes up on Aim rarely keeps going. This is the red light district of investing & you don't wanna hang around too long. Investors are always welcome but sharp minds are tuned in here so keep a careful eye on the surroundings.

DEBS / BOO leadership have a track record of deflating the SP and there is more to come.

Anyway, all are welcome to sweat about their losses here. DEBS is a good girl but will break your heart. Her sister BOO is nothing to cry over. If you hear Dan mention "synergies" then you know he's making distractions from the real business. RB is a nonsense business & not worth a dime. As for an Ebay clone marketplace, it would need to be better than the rest which is unlikely with this outfit. Future? - requires serious funding & strong marketing. Board decisions have been woeful over the past few years. A strong buy if only to get me out of here.

Things are never broken until they fall apart.

The business remains intact & the first-aid kit has been filled up.

Debs just needs to keep walking & showing the goods to attract the buyers.

If debt costs are almost identical to the past year then no real worries.

Market opinion today holds the BUY position. If that continues tomorrow, then all good for now (until the next RNS which may take the true direction for the SP).

BFD is still flag waving on the hill so I will join him with some encouragement & some cheerleaders with pompoms.

Go for it BFD - BFD we love you, ooh ooh ohh, he can do what no man do, BFD it is to be, DEBS up 12 & that's clear to see.

All for the SP rising - can see many getting a lifeline before the inevitable next loan.

Day traders will be gone by the afternoon so hold on to your fruit while its fresh.

That interest rate is so painful - like a pin cushion you sit on.

Still results to come which will look like an over-cooked turkey - some will chew through it.

One of the funniest chat boards on LSE

- full of desperation, anxieties, incontinence & comparisons.

Has BFD lost his cool? We think not. Tradey went off the ball but that's long ago when the SP was double+. Now we are in super discount territory things should be hotting up. Them results can't be far away now. Just wait for the "future outlook" statement to land. Could be the next talking point.

Strong Buy if you can't wait for a 9p entry but still highly risky to bet here. As for an investment advice - just read the chat history for the lesson in investing in a name. Boohoo for many & a cheesy grin if you saw it coming.

A red carpet for investors is being laid out - hopefully will gain a lot more traction in the coming months. One of my long term holds is PANR.

All good until the political oil agenda changes & while Trump is in the hot seat, the future looks like a hare on speed.

SP moving nicely to a 9p target. Everybody can then stock up for xmas & average out them losses.

Amazing movement on shallow volumes. Bickering on here helps so much. Like anything else, can boom any moment but likely to drop a wee more.

All Scots will have an eagle eye on what's floating here - not just a wee jobbie in a puddle, but a big enormous wedgy that won't move down fast enough.

It's a big bold beautiful plan - just not yet correctly assessed by the market.

2024 plan to restore value to shareholders was part of it. Probably meant buy shares later (now) to see incredible growth. What a plan!

Full of golden apples is Dan. Careful what you swallow.

If only DEBS had a defence contract - just too must competition in the "marketplace" + competition from criminal enterprises shelf clearing retail stores for Sunday markets. https://www.tiktok.com/@londonxploring/video/7500634716899396886 - disclaimer: general video of a market.

If you're looking for some good news, despite the manipulated drop in the SP, no major shareholders have sold recently (from my observations). Those here continue to hold, be that with a bit of trading. Sure to go up 15% at least, in one day, on news of an exceptional event. Must be kept top secret I guess as we all are mostly clueless.

Rising to periscope depth soon (we hope) as not much air left in the tanks.

Oh to be trapped in a submarine with youse lot - oh we are!

What with legal ramifications being sprayed left & right, words amounting to " I told you this would happen", "Cor blimey not down again", "Won't go any lower", " Look captain, we going up" - last air bubble. Frasers on their warship saying " There down there somewhere" - "launch the depth charges".

Just need a torpedo in the pantry & it will be only good for salvage.
