Hahahaha the rat cant answer and hes to embarrassed to sign in from his other account after last nights toys are us are debacle. Fool.

Pedro is the below true??

pre pandemic online shopping rate was 19.7pc but have now settled at over 28pc.

This is an absolutely massive boost to online spending when put into perspective - it means online retailers revenue will go up by 30 percent against pre covid ....

Pedro you are like a broken record who doesn't know anything about percentages....

Give me a minute ill be back with some real data....

"T-Rowe don't have a good track record with BOO and should be ignored."

You might want to wait a while before saying that.... They haven't bought 11 percent of the company to trade and crap themselves like private investors....

There's a saying that a good investor makes his profit when he/she buys not when he/she sells....

For anyone not clued up on shorting.... Wait for the squeeze...

Short selling: What it is, why it's risky and how the 'squeeze' happens

Most investors think of risk being only on the downside," said CFP Matt Canine, senior wealth strategist with East Paces Group in Atlanta. "When you buy a stock outright, your losses are finite — if you buy at $100 and it goes to zero, you lost $100.

"But if you short it and it goes to $200, $300, $400 etcetera, your losses are compounded," Canine said. "The risk on the upside is unlimited." 

When a stock is heavily shorted, and investors are buying shares — which pushes the price up — short sellers start buying to cover their position and minimize losses as the price keeps rising.

This can create a "short squeeze": Short sellers keep having to buy the stock, pushing the price up even higher and higher. (This is what happened with the shorted stocks targeted by the Reddit investing crowd). 

The shorters have an average price of around 260p (marshall wace).... So they currently have a decent profit which could be eroded significantly in a matter of trading sessions so i believe they will start to close very soon - however with 98 percent of positions long on boo it's completely immaterial....

T rowe increased by over 1.1 percent recently which is about the same size as marshalls whole position.... Whos more on confident?!

I wonder if someone could help during 2017 ocado was the most shorted stock on the market at 250p...

There was a massive short squeeze and the stock went to over 1000p....

Many of the shorts were still stuck in at 1000p

Does that mean they were 100 percent down?

Or were they 400 percent down?

Asking for a friend looooooooooooooool

Please Note: the figures given above for every year refer ONLY to UK failures and ONLY to UK retail businesses - so not to American business and not to restaurants, cafes and food services.  The yearly totals in the Table above are intended to show the main trends applying to UK retailing, from relatively benign years where few companies go bust to perfectly horrid years like this one and 2020.  So far  of the stores' at risk', 53% have been closed and 43.7% of 'at risk' staff have been made redundant. The equivalent figures last year were 36.9% and 20.6% respectively,
