"and lo it came to pass, that yet another month also did pass. And the devotees did fall to their knees and there was much wailing and nashing of teeth. For the devotees had been promised news, from the mighty JD. His light did shine, but now has gone. And the devotees did agree that maybe next month the mighty JD would shine a light once more upon them. And the devotees did depart from this place for the weekend, but in truth, they were still sore afraid, of what was to come".

There Endeth the Lesson.

In all seriousness, an 'extension' being announced is not the same as a 'deal being done'.

One is finite and done - and the other is a 'this is still up in the air and may or may not happen' thing. Just have to try to keep things accurate around here. .

And lovin it!

An extension means that JD is very likely still struggling to nail down the financing. That's not the 'same thing'. Not at all!

Temuchin I am with Barclays and have been able to dummy buy each and every time, all day today. No problem at all.

Temuchin - I am sure that I am not alone, in saluting you for your honesty with that post.

Good for you and I wish you the best of luck here - whatever that ends up looking like. . . . ATB

Call The Travel Lodge perhaps!! Lol!!

PS by the way, the same applies to me. I took a punt on a JD offer coming in. But I always felt that he was an awful CEO!

I'm after a 'quick buck' here, but could not care less about Superdry Plc after that, as I am 'betting' on a scenario and not a company. . . ATB

Temuchin - I get the impression that you are here because you 'hope' that a bid will come in from JD and that you will make money that way? That's 100% fine. I get that. No problem. BUT that does not mean that you start defending a CEO who has lost his shareholders 95% of their money, in five years! Do not confuse the real reason as to why you are here. You are betting on an offer coming in from JD and making a quick buck - NOT investing in Superdry Plc for many, many years down the road and possibly making some slow money. No need to defend him therefore is there?! You are confusing why you are really here it seems to me. You are 'betting' on a 'scenario happening' not 'investing' in a company for the long term.

Yes 'he is the founder' and 'it's his baby' blah, blah, blah. BUT I for one would support a motion of 'no confidence' and demand his resignation as CEO, if this was (as seems likely) to continue as a Public Listed Company. JD should resign, once this farce has concluded. He is not fit for purpose as CEO. Perhaps he could become something a bit namby-pamby like 'Chairman of Superdry'. Just not a sharp-end role such as CEO! It's very clearly not his strong suit.

SavvyInvestor - if presiding over a share price collapse of 94.46% in your tenureship as CEO is an "impressive turnaround" then I would love to hear what you think a poor effort looks like! Dear God, JD has been a total disaster for SDRY!! Like a total disaster. Shareholders have been almost completely wiped-out, because of JD being the CEO. The buck stops with the CEO and nobody else...and that CEO has been JD. Nearly 95% is NOT an "impressive turnaround".

Typical! The Waitrose that always has copies has none today!

However, 'Nil Desprandum' as the wife is going to try another Waitrose on Saturday for me. . .

If ever there was a company desperately in need of clarity and not ambiguity! Nice job, yet again JD

This is a truly terrible and highly unprofessional advert for Superdry Plc - and about as shambolic as the company itself has been, over the last six years. Indeed, those heady £19 / £20 days of 2018, seem a very very long time ago now.

Sparky333 - I am hoping to pick up a copy of IC later today. In which case (assuming of course, that there is an actual copy left on the shelf!), I will endeavour to type up the article in full here. I just hope that it's not too long!

And still has three separate positions 'open' with YU. So, he very clearly thinks that it is going to go higher yet. He has been a buyer four times, ever since it was £3.30. He closed one position early doors, then re-bought YU (on three separate occasions) and has kept all three of those positions open ever since. . . 🤠

Rolls Royce Plc has risen (over the last 3 months), from £3 to £4.22. YU Group Plc (over exactly the same time period), is also UP from £12 to £17.50. Yes, I'm in both (smug emoji). Yet people here have ignored them both and instead, over the same time period, have made absolutely nothing as a result. F**k all. Choosing instead, to 'gamble' on an ailing, money losing, debt laden retailer, that 'might' pull a genie out of the bottle, courtesy of its disastrous Founder. But Why? Seriously (and rationally), why? Why would you do that? Surely, this whole game, is about choosing stocks that 'make you money' - not lose you money? Why choose to ignore the likes of RR and YU, for example (as there are countless more out there), whose businesses are performing outstandingly well and whose very rapidly increasing share prices reflect just that? No 'gambling' involved. Just prudent, commercial, smart investing. Unless you have money to burn, then invest wisely, or you will lose a ton of money. Too many people are here on a random hope / punt / gamble. For many it's simply too late to get out now. Not great 😪

Enzo88 - to be honest, it is very hard to know, but £20 will be the first Pit Stop and I personally, am 100% certain, that we will reach that by June / July, if not sooner. After that, then £25 would not be a crazy valuation either. . . .

That's nothing! He would have made even more if he had bought YU Group Plc. UP 1,654% over the last five years and a more modest 245% in just the last year. UP 32% in the last month and it has a long way to go yet; given last weeks' stunning results and only 16.74m shares in issue. . . All Aboard the YU YU train!
