The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring financial educator and author Jared Dillian has been released. Listen here.
I made the right choice getting out at 263 yesterday... There will be no magic with this company and the chairman does not give me any confidence ..I saw him on TV and looking at his manner this is just another job to him ..Also he stated the Netto thing was trail and error leaving me to feel that all the experiments are going to be at the expense of shareholders. So we could see lots more cuts and savings and poorer returns for shareholders who now come bottom of his priorities. This share needs to fall loads more before I am interested in buying..
Just read questor in the Telegraph and the comments seems to makes sense ..if divi is cut and earnings are reduced because of cutting margins then at a PE of 10 the share price will be in the 160 to 200 price range .. This makes more sense than a rise in price under the circumstances and with the known facts at present
I agree with you ..I sold 15,000 at around 263 this gets me out at even .Had I bought at 225 I would still be in as that was too low but I have already committed a bucket load of money to this stock at higher prices ...capital preservation is most important and I am not prepared to gamble on the outcome.. tomorrow we will know the story and then can make a proper investment / value decision. I like the company and will buy in again at a price I deem value if there are no big shocks and hold for a possible recovery.
This share is like a yoyo ..When looking at the sales and purchases there does not seem to be anything to convince me people are buying this stock in great numbers.. Could it be that some dealers are playing with the market in order to get the price of options lower and make a killing if the price falls tomorrow on bad news. Has any one with access to options information got a view on this got any thoughts on this ?
We are coming to the end of the week ..maybe a few in the know are buying now ahead of a weekend announcement as to what it might be who knows ..but the price has been very volatile today
This is in my town and very close to Tesco and Aldi.. but will be a vast improvement on the town centre store.. Also I think this will be bigger than the other 2
Wow man I have looked at your previous posts you are serious doom and gloom ..should you be investing in shares ..? It can't be good for your health being so negative ..Take care or put your money in the bank ..
Prices go up and down ..I see theses lower prices as an opportunity to buy more shares in a good company ..I am an investor and not out to make a quick buck ..we have 2 choices ..get 1% on our money in a bank or buy into shares ..This is a good company that will make changes that are necessary over time ..and will pay its shareholders a decent reward when it is possible. Look at the history of earnings and profits .a company this size is not going to lie down and die.. If the price drops further well I will just buy more ..Warren Buffet said on CNBC the other day that he uses drops in price as an opportunity to buy further share in good companies.. Well I don't think he is a stupid guy..Everyone makes mistakes from time to time he admits he did with Tesco...but this is not the same as Tesco ...
Quality counts ..For years my mum has bought all her food at M&S or SBRY she is now nearly 80 and would never change over the years no matter how much I told her that she could buy cheaper elsewhere. She always tells me that the reason is quality. There is a certain customer who would not be seen dead inside Lidl or Aldi and I for one could never get my weekly shop in their stores as they just do not have the choice of products.On the other hand my son who is a doctor and as tight with his money as Scrooge buys cases of basic stuff from Aldi and Lidl.. I think he still lives like a student eating beans on toast for every meal. My personal feeling is the number of food stores are growing however both Tesco and SBRY have realised that their is a demand for local stores and are going flat out to gain in this area. These local stores will eventually pull back the market share form the likes of Aldi and Lidl. I am not worried in the slightest for the long term prospect of SBRY. I am also an investor not a trader
This seems to be a well run business that is suffering a little due to competition but is making moves in the right direction to improve things .every week there are new local stores popping up and the business will grow. The share price seems so low that there may be someone out there wanting to buy this company ..does anyone have any idea of anyone who may buy this and the reasons why ?
Looking at the financial statements this seems to be the most stable of the larger supermarkets ..However not a shop I like especially the new mini shops ..they opened one near me and it looks so dull inside. ..I reckon it is a good and pretty safe punt ..put £20K into it yesterday and may do the same again on any further drop ..Reckon long term will produce the goods ..Also if the dividend stays a nice return.
I am a fan of my local Beales and looking at the low share price in relation to net assets. I wonder if anyone has any idea of how many shares it would be possible to buy in the market. Do you think it would be possible to buy £100,000 worth ? I see this as a worthwhile punt having known the store for many years.
I see on the RSN a company called New Solera is buying up share regularly and is now over 20%
The idea is great and i see the potential but am not prepared to pay an 11 to 15 % premium only a few days after launch ..also I will be interesting to see what investments they make ....I am hoping the price will drop back after the initial excitement ..Also we may see several other REITS coming soon which provide other opportunities
I saw the price falling and went into my local Beales ...looked reasonably busy and bright ..so bought some shares as I think long term it will be ok.
Anyone any idea why my purchase is showing up as a sale 20,000 11.29am ?
