Nikkei is up more than 600 points so hopefully the UK market will be up today, Friday, too.

A spokesperson for Boohoo said: “Since the onset of the challenges we all now face, we have closely followed the Government guidelines to keep everyone in our boohoo family safe and well.

"This has meant that amongst many other measures, we have transitioned the majority of our teams to working from home. We immediately identified those in a high risk category and removed them from the workplace for their safety and have closed all communal areas such as gyms and canteens.

"Where it is not possible for our teams to do their jobs from home we have implemented stringent hygiene and self-distancing measures and have lots of support in place.

"The steps we have taken in Burnley are extensive and we have our senior team monitoring the site continually to ensure adherence, it is therefore wholly untrue to suggest that we are not protecting the well-being of our team. The measures announced by the Prime Minister in the last 48 hours, still allows for those that are unable to work from home to travel.

"Like every other business in the country we are working around the clock to keep pace with Government guidance and do the very best for our people both socially and financially to keep them safe and well.

"Our team have shown incredible spirit and we are incredibly proud of them all. We have not categorised our people as key workers, we are simply following the guidance of government which at this time allows logistics to continue with the right precautions in place.”

Younger people are having group Skype/WhatsApp etc. chats and are still buying - boredom...filling their wardrobes up for these chats and for tomorrow.

Ignore the doomsters and gloomsters and we'll all be a lot healthier and happier.

Keep well everyone.

Asos, John Lewis, Debenhams, Missguided, New Look, Amazon, Zara, etc., etc. are all still operating.

Also, the Government has said online retailers can operate normally. The Government want and need to keep the UK economy going.

Boohoo, Boohooman, Prettylittlething, Nasty Gal, Karen Millen and Coast all still online.

May be more difficult for Next to stay open online when they have bricks and mortar shops that are closed and so their online employees are being treated differently to their shop employees.

Boohoo still online and states on their website:-

Just To Let You Know We're Business As Usual + We're Working Hard To Get Orders To You Safely And On Time

Act with decency and compassion even on here

Well said Uncle_Doug.

Keep Calm And Hold On.

So sorry streets36 and feeling for you.

It's so easy to panic sell. I've done it in the past and learnt my lesson the hard way. No doubt you have too now.

Regarding Citadel you can email the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) if you think Citadel have done wrong with their manipulating of Boohoo through their short selling of Boohoo. Email address for this is whistle@fca.org.uk

The above link may help to understand the closing auction/uncrossing trade to determine the share price at the end of each day.

The uncrossed trade which decides the share price at the end of the day was at 16.35.09. This is then shown at the top of the page beside Price (GBX).

That is wrong Classhero - the share price at the end of the day ends with the uncrossed trade at 187 anything after those trades are late reporting trades or something else.

The share price is the one at the top of the page on the link.

That should read 187.

Here's the website to use always for accurate information:-

Boohoo ended the day up at 1.87.

Never rely on this website for accurate information.

Boohoo is the best in class eCommerce fashion business.

Its target audience is 16 to 24 years. This audience has the most money to spend because they live at home, don't have any rent and no mortgages. At that age the majority love fashion and clothes.

Boohoo has loads of cash to see it through. It looks like there will be less competition, Oasis and Warehouse, have put themselves up for sale today.

The shops are closed so where do young people buy their clothes i.e. online. The beauty about 16 to 24 years means there are always more young people coming into that age bracket from 12 to 13 year old wanting to look like 16 year old.

Nikkei is up nearly 900 points so hopefully it'll be a good day for the UK market on Tuesday too.

spicey - yes, you've said that many times on here that you got out at 3.14. Well done you.

I think I've already stated that we all know, including Paul Scott, why the share price is dropping/falling.

Again the point Paul Scott was making was that it wasn't clear to him why the share price had dropped/fallen so much.

Bored teenagers may still wish to buy clothes online so they can show them off on pictures of themselves on instagram, etc. Bored teenagers may still be buying clothes online because they're bored.

Boohoo has loads of cash and is the best in class eCommerce fashion business.
