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!!

maybe, maybe not only time will tell.

Gap is understood to have inked a deal with young fashion etailer Asos to launch its first transactional website in the UK.


An announcement regarding the deal was expected imminently as Drapers went to press.

In October, Gap confirmed it had plans to launch a transactional website in the UK. In the same month, Asos announced plans to team up with fashion brands that did not have a transactional website to offer them an online presence.

The etailer already offers a web fulfilment service hosting transactional online operations for brands via its own website.

Asos and Gap declined to comment

sp looking soggier than for a while ..... are peeps merely a bit nervous ahead of the results having seen all the collapsed fashion companies, empty high street shops and a rapidly growing number of unemployed? ..... or is there prior knowledge abroad for the select few?

i would say the beautiful game is on , cynic

meaning what?

if you do want buy more you want buy cheaper don't you :)

i don't want to buy at all!

thats why you don't get it :)))

i would happily see sp tumble 50p and more
i may well (very likely!) be proven wrong, but i cannot see that ASC will have escaped unscathed or that their forecast for 2009 will look remotely rosy

funny trades today 44,20,114...

just beautifull..290

At what point would you say this is beautiful enough? tomasz. Any body know why it's fallen.
Cynic - would have thought you would have been in these, were you and sold out at 410p or do you not rate this growing company?

i am short ..... timing all wrong, but slowly getting back towards profitability .... as i have frequently stated, i think ASC is an excellent company that created a needed niche .... that said, the stock carries a pretty hefty rating in a horrid sector and it is inconceiveble (to me) that ASC can be looking forward with any enthusiasm to the rest of 2009

balerboy,i would say 290 is enough.it can go 280 even but that would be max.stay like that would say a week then up again.statement good so new numbers,esp..got it?:)))and im not so sure any body know why is falling down..:))

cynic,that was pretty shy but nice evaluation:))

avoid retail .... suggest you walk down your high street and look at the empty units, and there's more and more to come .... on-line has some protection as no silly rent to pay, but peeps still need to be employed - less and less of them too - and money to spare on something more expensive than a bar of chocolate

cynic, you're not about high-street-shop-business here..you remember that?:))
same as 4x4 porsche cayenne goes diffrently then ford mondeo in the mud..right?:))

Agree with your comment and as I'm in these from early days of 50p am happy to hold. if my daughter and her friends are anything to go by (19yrs old) they have no value of money what so ever. They see it, I want it syndrome prevails, worry about tomorrow when it comes. I can't believe you wait until a company is half way up the ladder, and not take a chance (calulated agreed) when it's blossoming.

as my daughter works in the fashion industry, and in my youth i also worked there, i have a pretty good insight into its current dire straits ..... i like restaurant stocks, but in the present climate, i won't go near those either
