Ev. Standard 'Which of the Big Guns could fail?' 'All eyes should be on SBRY (will survive in a reduced form) & MRW' (looks shaky, what happens if demand falls & it has a load of meat to shift?). This is consistent with Short interest ATM. Worth reading the whole article.

- a T/O target, IMO - I expect GLEN to come calling:)

'I am planning to built up 70000 shares in the next 12 months this years dog is 2016 winner' - guess you are working on Plan B now:)

Anyone who thought the MRW Short feast had finished - take a look now 12.4% !! Most shorted stock on the FTSE. Don't buy until the Lions lose interest in their prey.

It appears shorters knew more than Investers - although I was poo-pooed for highlighting the increase in Short Interest.

Buying Lloyds share of SBRY bank to cost £120m more than first thought. Only cutting 3% of lines while TSCO is cutting 30% - drop in the ocean, simply not enough. Hard to see how 30 Netto stores can make a difference.

Heaven forfend! 'peasants & those just after a bargain'. Surely you would be more a home at Waitrose, where absurdly high prices keep out the riff-raff?

The 'something crucial' is short interest in MRW, is now a mind-boggling 11.6%, compared with SBRY 10.9% & TSCO under 0.5%. Despite the ingenious explanations on this BB, short interest is normally a bet that the SP will fall.

- on the back of BHP order.

Wozzer is someone else. A lot of smart arse comments from people like Mary Portas who NEVER shop in Tesco are Back view mirror dross, F&F clothing is a well recognized brand & fashion leader World wide, including the USA. A lot of white goods haven't been on sale in Extra stores for years. Tesco Bank & Tesco Mobile regularly scoop 'Best Provider' awards & make millions. The future for Tesco is abroad, we can't get any bigger in the UK, but we can recover market share. As M&S have found it was easy to close their Paris store but they have now returned to a much smaller footprint at great cost.

As I have said before, if the position were reversed & Hedge funds had 10 + of TSCO, I would be worried. But despite TSCO's contuing woes, Short positions have actually fallen back from 0.92% to -0.5% while Hedge Funds haven't budged on MRW & SBRY, still in the Top 5 most shorted 1) GREENE KING PLC 11.5% 2) WM MORRISON SUPERMARKETS 10.8% 3) SAINSBURY (J) PLC 10.4% What am I missing?

TSCO 0.00% (under 0.5%) MRW 10.8% SBRY 10.4%. Any thoughts? Have the Hedge funds got it wrong??

Ex-div on the 23rd.

Mail on Sunday revealed two of those to be let go in the cull Morrison's announced last week. The grocer, which said it was to cut 720 head office jobs, has made fashion director Tim Bettley, the former Peacocks boss who set up Morrison's Nutmeg clothing label, redundant along with customer director Crawford Davidson, who launched the grocer's Match & More loyalty card last year.
