Anyone notice the exratordinary volumes yesterday? (10/5/2004)

48 million!!!

Many more buys than sells.

That and the price held out only losing a fraction of a penny.

No Easter Eggs in sight in my local store.

May be one reason but............

Any ideas people?

No - not Woolies....must be strong, no more retailers, no
adding to the portfolio, no more bargain basement buys, not until
I get rid of FCCN, must resist.......

(phew that was close, it all got very tempting for a minute)

Seriously, it's sad really I like Woolies.....oh and Dave, it's ok
you can put my foot down now - cheers me-dear
;>)

It's been good to me, so I am sentimental, and will probably buy back in again, only this time keep them.

They will find the focus I think, and I bet they eventually take Tesco over in the future.

Will it be before the latest aseroid hits in 2036?

Well I can not answer that as I probably wont be around then.

Be warned, if I am, I will look like Mr Burns.

"Smithers......................."

LOL :>)

26,

You heard it here first,fight the urge,,,,,,,,,,,,fight the urge!!

It seems that even that Evil character now owns Woolies and didn;t take Dave's advice to fight that urge!

"On the other hand I have hoovered up 1 million shares in Woolworths (WLW) at 39p as I think the market over-reacted to the Apax bid withdrawal and I can see another stalker emerging in due course. I see that Nick Bubb disagrees with me and he is the retail guru but then he does read the Guardian so he can't get everything right."

I think EK is right to do this at 39p.

I'll phone him tomorrow and say so..........

he may be right but i will wait for a few more sessions to decide.

there was a comment inm the times that somerfield was down because of hedgie margin calls in WLW. we could have told them that from this board!

Bit slow in falling this woolworths still thursday beckons lol all.

Another 10 point fall and we mite have a deal.

Looking a bit sick today, but then, so are many others.

35p was my target, but I am looking at dave waiting for 25p and........

Thinking.

So we aren't tempted yet then SeaWallWalker! LOL
(Don't blame you)
But it is good for 40p we know that, it's just getting the
faith to go with the knowledge!

yes sb at the moment I have little except for what I hold.

all but one gone into the red now.......... nuts!

I've got 2 blue now!!!
Jessops (can you believe it! lol) and SPW
Tis a strange world......

Where the floor, 26 is were i will join the woolworths express!!

Mega purchases going through - almost 10,000,000 in short time - is there any news??

Nope........

Only another 30% drop in the wlw sp and you can count me in.

Still in the mid 30s this woolworths why,, i dont know !!

Big week for woolworths ahead,,bull or bear you decide..
