Someone’s topping up that’s for sure!

I’ve topped up, positive news from Adidas.

Welcome aboard BeBold! Where are you on holidays too?

Vol. Sold 3,340,672

Sold Value £2.80m

Vol. Bought 12,962,594

Bought Value £10.85m

FF3, what’s the buyers vs sellers like, please? :)

Any shorts reduced?

Generating half that market cap in one FY in profits***

Anyway, it’s clear as day how undervalued it is.

JD Sports and JD Gyms will be taking over the biggest square footage store in Cwmbran Town Centre later this year. The branding is looking impressive! Expansion is well underway.

MMs are doing everything possible to trigger stop limits.

Maybe more shorts are reducing in the meantime?

I see good value here at the current valuation.

This now has a market cap of £4bn, don’t forget they just spent $1.6bn purchasing two US retailers earlier in last year. What does that tell you, hugely undervalued.

It’s basically valuing JD Sports PLC at £2bn before they bought the other retailers, and it’s generating half that in one FY along with hugely investing in growth and new technology.

Insane to think the last time this was at 83p was in 2018 (7 years ago) when this business was nowhere near the best it is now, or in the pandemic when our stores were closed.

Unbelievably undervalued this is.

Damn that’s a lot of buys!

Good things will come, they did with Menzies, IAG, Rolls Royce, Card Factory, Mitie, to name but a few on my investments, ofc I’m glad I hold out of JD at 130p

102p average currently with my new holding, happy to wait until this gets back to 150p x

I’ve had to filter that bloke. Johnjo1 is a clown.

Agreed, Smokeytime.

what a shambles

We’ll be on the way up pretty soon runfox, are you in? ;)

Promotions in retail and hospitality are quite normal you know, although personally I’d rather the business model of…. Sell more full price goods and the odd freebie to customers for being loyal, customers can get used to discounts, but they don’t normally get used to freebies.

If you look at Rituals (the shower jel / feel good kinda business) they rarely do promotions, but they have a rewards scheme where they offer you free gifts every so often, the difference is they have quite a good unique high end product.

Anyway, I can’t tell you who I work for, but I also work in retail for a large organisation, and we buy from small suppliers right thru to billion pound businesses, and we buy containers worth of stock from some suppliers, we add a minimum mark up of 2.5 on all our products meaning if we purchase the goods from suppliers at £1, we sell for £2.50 which is 150% mark up.

Which also then means we can half price a product and still make a gross profit, or a further reduction if required.

JD Sports sale is ending soon, so that’ll soo be wrapped up and the summer stock will start to arrive once everyone is done buying their new fitness / winter clothes!

JD Gyms have the Simply Gym brand which is around 2 gyms I believe and JD Gyms which have 98 gyms currently open, with another 8 JD Gyms opening later this year.

The JD Gyms arm has been profitable on and off up until this year.

It generates over £100’m in sales and has sat around £16m in profit per FY.

It’s made a £29,000 operating loss this FY but that’s fine as they’re expanding.

That’s off the top of my head, and for checking the JD Gym website, you can find the proper numbers somewhere.

You don’t have the time to drip feed a 10,000 share order every day for 4 months? but you’ve got more than enough time to check and reply on this forum, okay.

What a load of waffle.

Set the same buy orders as FF3 has done below, that’s basically 4 weeks of orders done in a matter of minutes.

You can easily buy 50,000 shares a day without any problems, honestly I’m not sure I can take you seriously anymore.

Edited as I had spelling errors, sorry x

I’m down £10k -16.84%

I should’ve just kept my cash in a savings account.

Buggerrrrr haha!

I believe in this brand, but I’m so annoyed with this new government, this government doesn’t know what growth is, at least the tories were turning things around.

Honesty terrible isn’t it Johnjoneedsashag ;)

We need some positive news from UK GOVERNMENT, as all retailers are feeling the pinch.

Labour, day in day out continues to fail Britain and have done nothing to reassure markets or fix things.

Call any bank or Hargreaves Lansdown and they’ll assist no doubt :)
