ASOS have dropped quite significantly in the past week for no particular reason and I view this as the perfect opportunity to invest as I can see them bouncing right back up to the 5.50p mark in the next 2-3 weeks. STRONG BUY!!

SELL Asos...it is going downhill quickly...290p now

sp totally clattered ..... confess i did not have the balls to short them the other day ..... silly really; psychologicallyt much harder to short than to go long

wow...260p now...real fast drop.

has been as low as 251 this morning

236 now...ASOS is crashing surprisingly.

hlyeo there is a institutional distressed seller in need of cash forcing the price down see todays rns re d/bank.

deutsche bank has been under presure and offloading shares in all sorts of companies for months, though of course Germany does not have a banking crisis - much! ..... just like neither France nor Germany had BSE

quite extraordinary ..... only down 3p despite the bloodbath

Will be interesting to see where this now goes.
Would expect 1st quarter results 2009 to be down. Just a question of how much.

quite amazing .... have just noted sp +18 at 263 = +7% in a day of total blood and gore

Cynic- seem to recall that on Nov1 some further data will be announced- may be someone in the know?

they saved some of my bacon at least today

"We will provide a further trading update with the interim results, for the six months ended 30 September 2008, to be released on 17 November 2008"

i think their figures will be very good, but it is the forecast that will be watched

cynic you wont get a true picture until the xmas trading update issued in jan.

4,000.00 for a pair of trainers, money tight yet sold out. there was another pair for 750 which has also sold out.

i was very slow on the uptake ..... if any retail is still flourishing, it is the on-line companies ..... also, there is an interest rate cut due on thursday ...... and finally, IG seems to have reached its internal long limit ..... conclusion - there should be a decent profit to be made here, especially if a bear squeeze ensues, which is far from imposible

Surely though, a poor Xmas (which is likely imo) will see these retailers slide further?

in general i would agree with you, but firstly i shall probably not stay in until the new year, and secondly, the likes of ASOS should benefit, perhaps disproportionately, from any spending induced by both the rate cut and christmas
