Good spot. PBT + 54%, Revenue + 44% - would love to see something like that from Lookers! At least the used car market remains strong
Agreed, but there seems to be quite a bit of optimism around today. Previously the share price has lifted a few days post results. On the current trajectory could 130 be possible?
Results due out on Wednesday. SMMT data showing a slow down on new cars, but we've seen PDG, Marshall & Vertu post respectable results in the last few weeks. What do we think will happen here? Are they sufficiently diversified (used cars, aftermarket etc) to weather the storm?
I thought I had a grip on how the market works, but how does going ex-div by 5p result in +7p to the share price? I know the retail sector is looking pretty gloomy, however there is strong and sustained demand for pet products + services. Let's see this share rise back above 200
Ouch, taking a pounding today with no clear rationale. I've topped up a little, costing 170. Shame my previous buy in was at over 200, thinking we'd see a quick rebound to 220-230. Hopefully the reduced weighted average will help in the future! I'm unsure why we've seen such a dip. The January trading update showed some amazing growth in services, with intention to expand this revenue stream. Core sales were steady, and dividend growth was strong. There will be cost pressures due to EUR/USD, but I think there's an element of inelastic demand with pets. IMO this is a bargain at current prices (168p)
Did they give any update on the time-line? Your comment about Burundi - are there any specific issues they mentioned? I initially bought in at circa 10.5, and topped up today. Hopefully will see good returns once production is up and running
Up due to investment in 10 new aircraft with Chinese backing.
