They've not announced one, might be march if they don't do one in Jan going by how they've historically done them.

We've always had one in Jan, would be strange not to continue the tradition

January sales not a thing.... https://youtu.be/UTuJ_i6q4Ds?feature=shared

Oh never mind it's there skimmed over it but still they expecting a fat div.

I want whatever this guys smoking - https://www.fool.co.uk/2024/01/02/9-9-dividend-yield-is-direct-line-the-best-dividend-stock-to-buy-in-2024/

I don't even think they mentioned the div being cancelled.

Or we actually start hitting targets/ guidance. I can't see a buy out happening. Let's hope for a postcode Tu in Jan.

Probably be back in the 60s the way this is going. Boohoo also tracking downwards so probably the usual stuff going on.

They are in a good position, even the brokers seem to think so but with energy pricing coming down it will affect rev and profits. plus the uncertainty around what the gov plans to do with a windfall tax (might not happen) there's a lot of ifs and buts to consider, which might explain the likes of Marshall wace increasing their short position. If we get a chunky div + buy back without a windfall tax i can see this climbing back up quickly. I'm hoping we see £1.80 to £2 some time next year but short term i expect volatility.

Shorts are increasing so i wouldn't be surprised at it dropping further from here.

The mirror being lazy and trying to post festive nonsense by looks of it. This article is from 2019 just regurgitate again on a slow news day

Monty I believe golden share is no more, was due to expire in sept but mm gave it up a few months before. The doors are open for a hostile takeover but then 65% of the shares are held by mm friends... Or maybe not so much if you believe kelso.

2.50 is probably from the sum of parts valuation. It was around £2.20 when Apollo made their approach previously. I assume that's where it's coming from.

Just enjoy the ride up, I know I am hopefully can get to 45p by end of the year bringing 24 in on a bit of a high.

It's all interesting stuff just hope something material comes from all this and not the usual beating of drums to nothing.

Finally in profit, won't hold my breath that it'll stay here though. Everything is positive today hopefully the Santa rally continues.

£1.50 and you can have my shares. I doubt a take over happens though. Just hoping for a steady rise off the back of some solid numbers.

Seems a good buy to me, $20m for $29m in book value.. plus 300m existing turnover. Seems a bargain on the face if it, just depends how profitable the brands are and how much extra value thg can add to it too pull it up further. I'd have expected more share price movement but maybe that'll happen once it's finalised.

6 years no claims, no convictions or claims. Just live in a crap postcode and need business use on my policy with higher than average miles at around 15k. The sheer gap in quotation is nonesense though, that's the point not my stupid insurance prices because of postcode lottery.

So time to renew my car insurance and I have to say dlg have taken the absolute biscuit. Quoted me over £2500, ended up going with Aviva zero at £750ish with a load of extras added on, even Hastings were trying it on with a £1500 renewal that they then suddenly managed to knock £500 off. Insurance system is pretty broken, just hope this means we see good rev and profits if they are getting enough customers through the door...

Could be considered competition since they sell clothes. Wife was looking for something other day and noticed temu popping up in the shopping bit with cheap products. Similar to how shein operate.
