Shoe Zone is my biggest stock inmy portfolio. It will be fine. Online sales I have been told are thru the roof..
Errr Shoe Zone went up nearly 11% today. Shoe Zone will be fine.
I didn't want to write anything as it seems only me and you responding to the movements of this stock. But nice rise today -hope you're well Rox
Looks good, shops do look a bit busy from my meandering walk inside our local shopping mall on Friday. Hoyle leaving tho is a downer - (wonder why), although replaced by someone who has experience from one of those large grocery sheds so guess that will be good. Plus a director loading up with wrks shares today, the market reacted with good news and more bought shares than sold for a change. Might break out for a glass of Vimto tonight.
Onwards and upwards.
Yup - its just a waiting game. I also a few weeks back sold more of my wrks shares and moved it into Shoe Zone but they both should be ok after the summer tills have rung.
Yeah Rox, enjoy the retirement. I retired last year at the age of 50. I think Shoe Zone with the Free Delivery to people's homes throughout this year is the reason why you may see the shops not too busy. The shoes are cheap so people order bulk and return what they don't need. I have about 50K in Shoe across my SiPP and ISA and abouit 30K in works. I kinda like the US stocks better as the UK FTSE is a snail in comparison. Loaded up on Ford, AMD, QFin, Dropbox and Spotify and all doing nicely - The UK market is a bore but only worth it during the pandemic. I started investing because of the pandemic as my early retirment timed the market - so to speak ..lol
Must declare i did reduce my holdings in Wrks as i have this and Shoe Zone as my biggie investments in my UK Portfolio - bit of BP too but lets not talk about that tortoise. Zeus capital have been appointed as Shoe Zone sole broker and Zeus have helped many small cap public firms to go private this past year. I am expecting a family buyout of Shoe Zone too as the share price is so low and i feel being manipulated... so swapped my ratio over to Shoe to gain this advantage. Hopefully it will either go up quick or be bought up and then I will add the slush fund to wrks to grab the summer tills. Depressing lack of audience participation on this board. Mind you being retired at an early age I probably have too much free time to comment here ...
Hey SueJ
Nice hearing from you. Hope you're well. Lot of the high street non- essential high street stores have pulled back recently due to govt flip flopping on public gatherings and the delta variant. Wrks, Card Factory, Shoe Zone are all in the same boat. we have had a linear push up and thus a breather's not too bad. Think Summer will be up and down and with kids holidays coming up and no overseas travels unless you can afford the holiday companies and airlines jacking their prices three fold for the green zones, i see a lot of kids being occupied thru the summer with arts and craft, books, gadgets and toys and see The Works being fine - especially with their more fuller online proposition. Then after the summer we will probably see a Trading update and hopefully it should be a good one. I see £1+ before losing my grips on these shares.
Yup those Sell and Buys are my trades, the trades in buying Shoe are all showing up as SELLS atm so be careful. I went on both websites this morning. I like the idea that SHOE Zone have free delivery (2-4 days) on any amount of goods for the rest of the year. The Works has a minimum of £30 before u get free delivery - I think this year will be huge for both online channels for but I give SHOE the edge with the free delivery and the fact that they supply one of life's necessity .. sometimes simple role playing social scenarios beat looking at financial figures..
Purchased some Shoe shares today and it comes up as a SELL in the Share Trades - all transactions come up as a SELL - been a glitch for a few days now
The share bid price for Wrks was flipping between 69.80 and 70.60 all day today on my H&L brokerage account. So when it moved up today for a second higher than that - I sold some at at 71.5p this afternoon from my ISA and SIPP, now 60-40 in Shoe favour and feel that's the way to go... DYOR
Hi Roxbury, thanks for your comment, that was my exact feeling, that the owners of Shoe made themselves known as the big buys a few weeks back and nothing about that £1m buy in Wrks and then the gap widens between the two. I would have expected some board share deals from Wrks especially if these prices are cheap ..In addition prior to the pandemic, the Wrks share had been declining and I really think there is more of a gap in Shoe Zone to move up.... Maybe I will balance and go 50/50 in funding and rest more easy... so good to hear from you Rox !
Hi. I have more of my holdings in Wrks than in Shoe Zone atm but feel there will be more movement in Shoe Zone to come. Shoe had big buys recently by the directors which provides hope. Wrks also had a £1 buy recently but there was no news who that was from. 65 % of funds in Wrks and 35% in Shoe currently - thinking of adjusting that so I am more geared towards SHOE - does anybody have any thoughts.. Whatever happened to the early buyers like Draft and SueJ - would welcome your views
There will be a management buyout before then - if the mgt have any sense at this low market cap.
Your bloody at it again on this board too JoeKenny or the bullshi%%er as I like to call you.
Your playing your sneaky games here too.
Twirl - I am sorry you found this idiot inconsistent with his comments - we had the same issue with him in RBG thread today.
Pop over into RGB and have a read..
Karma will eventually get this crooked JoeKenny
Man i hate this kerb crawler
JoeKenny - not one of CARDIFF's bright sparks ....
Your a charaltan, one who spouts what people want to hear in a particular share thread and then says the opposite in others. I been reading your comments all over the various share threads. Hate people like you. I wish I has the opportunity to meet you in person. If only ...... (to$$er)
According to our dear JoeKenny (the bu**shi**er) this was a multibagger just a few weeks ago, but according to his mates in FUL - its been on the decline since 2018 ... lol (I reckon he's losing big time all over the place)

Positive RNS overall- great outlook in terms of liquidity. RBG was hitting the 80p levels prior to covid as a result to its renewed profitable structure. Yet now with customers returning on a major scale, allowing for debts being payed off and profitability to return, I can see these shares returning to at least 50p this summer.
Currently seeing a major wyckoff wave pattern at the moment, this will be a great multi-bagger medium-long term IMO.
Guys look what he is posting in FUL. He is telling them that REV has been on the decline since 2018 but here he is saying just before todays placing that REV is ready to rock and roll to the 90's after the Update a couple of weeks ago ... what a flip flop.

RE: FUL in a good place compared to others26 May 2021 09:04
I had a small chunk there and its been decimated, really dodgy thing to do... crooked even, I mean its totally suspect to release reports of such good trading, drive up the SP to 40 odd pence and then to raise such a huge amount at 20p!
FUL on the other hand are run by genuine entrepreneurs and I feel it won't be long before this surpasses RBG, the popularity of the likes of Franco Manca is on the rise while Revs have been in decline since 2018. Have a much larger holding here and I'm tempted to top up again
Lot of devious nonsense on here too amongst investors as well as the board. JoeKenny have you sold out of your holding in RBG as you declared in your post earlier today because on the 12th May you said this was going to the 90's and you were waiting for a pullback in order to buy more but instead had to jump in to top up at 40pence. Can you just be consistent on where you stand with this stock and stop ramping your other holdings
