Why wouldn’t they be interested? I highly doubt this is just a play, they see it as undervalued and are potentially making a move.

Just the plane inventory alone is worth more than our current SP.

They have until the 26th June to make an offer, so RNS wise we might not get anything until then. If they don’t make an offer, from what I understand is they can’t do anything for 6 months then and have to walk away.

I imagine a lot of people with 450p stop losses have been caught out this morning.

Anyway it’s good to see us returning to a slightly more reasonable share price, it’s been massively undervalued even with the Iran war going on. It’s nice to see that Castleford see it undervalued and are trying to take advantage. Out of all the airlines we seem to have been hit the hardest.

Hopefully we see that 500p within the next week or so, when the Iran war eventually ends hopefully we’ll be back to the 600p area. It’ll be interesting to see what price we see a bid if we do before the 26th.

It’s nice to see that Castleford see it undervalued and are trying to take advantage.

Unfortunately I didn’t manage to average down as much as I like, currently sat at 450p.

Onwards and upwards though, I really think this share has huge potential, everyone I talk to says they’re going to just holiday in Europe this year.

Definitely hoping for 550-600 towards September, once everything’s cooled down in the Middle East.

The budget will drop the FTSE overall and that will hurt us, it’s just how much it does.

I’m gutted they didn’t decide to release a trading update this year as I was hoping to get rid of a fair majority before the budget.

I’ve had to sell a small percent due to some building works I’m having done.

This mid term-long term hold is still great in my opinion and wish everyone the best of luck.

They’ve done one every year, normally in the middle of October before the full results are posted.

If we don’t get one Thursday, I don’t think we’ll get one at all. It seems a strange move in my opinion when they’ve always done one, either the results are unbelievably good and they feel they don’t need to and can wait or maybe there’s been a mess up which has caused a delay in posting them.

Hopefully we get an update this week, I imagine it’ll be on Thursday looking at previous years.

With a positive update and hopefully a de escalation in the Israel War I could see the SP rising to 600p+ up to December.

The war has created a bit of spike in oil prices recently but overall I can only see it going down further, lots of competition for the Saudis now and with Kazakhstan, Russia, Iraq not complying with OPEC, there will end up being an abundance of oil, especially with demand in China being lower than expectations.

All of these factors should help us and I’d be amazed if we saw 420p again but I could very well be proven wrong. It’ll be interesting to see the budget later this month as well.

Stumpy, I do overall find your posts detailed and interesting, it’s just I feel like the ones were you state it’s going to go to a low price after selling, then not waiting to buy back in at that price is contradicting.

The main thing driving this today is oil prices being down almost 4%.

No one cares Stumpy, all you do is post to things that you think will be an advantage to you, when you’ve sold you say the SP will be going to 460p possibly 420p.

Now when you’re obviously back in you’re saying 514p+.

Good work on trimming down at 540p Mary, I was on the verge on doing that but my instinct told me to wait, hindsight is a wonderful thing. Hopefully the war in Israel will be short term pain, with results in a couple of weeks I’m hoping of a bounce back to the 540p+ region.

Not looking the greatest at the open today so we’ll see. I imagine we’ll see a red day today but hopefully we’ll stay above 520p. Shares can’t go up in perfect straight lines but overall it’s been a great week, onwards and upwards.

Big shake up today, probably catching out people with stop losses set up. Onwards and upwards we go.

Ftse 100 in general is looking good at open today, hopefully we’ll see 500 today.

Unfortunately the warning signs of a new low were there yesterday, as soon as I read the RNS and saw the £190m payment that M&S are claiming they don’t have to pay I knew it was bad. I managed to get out at 358p when there was somehow a slight rise first thing, my initial plan was a long term hold here but when an opportunity comes to potentially lower your average SP I’ll take it. Good luck to the rest of you, I’ll be watching closely.

It’s crazy Stumpy at the moment, it’s so volatile for a ftse 100 share, I’m just enjoying watching it at the moment. You don’t know what’s going to happen from the next hour in the day.

I’m just glad I’m in at a level I’m happy with, when this is going to move up it’s going to go fast and I’d rather be in than out.

I agree Boyo a very interesting week to come. This has been pushed down below 350p on pretty low volume, I could imagine a few stop losses could have been activated and it will have got rid of a few panicky sellers.

In the short term I’m not too sure which way this is going to go, I’m very much thinking of the bigger picture and at these levels it’s a bargain.

Sounds like someone who’s just sold his shares. Everyone has their own strategies, personally I think at these levels you can’t go wrong with a LTH.

The train is arriving soon and once it leaves there’s no getting back on it.

I finally decided to sell this morning after holding this for the past 8 months. A few months ago I thought I could see a clearer picture of where this was going but with the revenues expected to decline again 5-15% I feel this is only heading one way.

The sale of topshop would solve some of the problems with clearing up some debt, then that’s only a short term fix as I can only see further revenue decline selling it.

I feel lucky to be able to get out at 372p this morning.

They’ve been pushed back to the 26th September.

Total group sales were up 5.4% to £2.63bn.

"The uncomfortable transition of sales from retail to online appears to have slowed to a more manageable level, not least because less than 35% of our sales are now in shops. Alongside this change, Retail property costs have dropped to levels more in line with current trading volumes," Next said.

"Looking ahead to 2024/25 it is likely that inflationary pressures on selling prices and operating costs will continue to ease," the company said as it unveiled a 4.8% rise in half-year profit to £420m.
