Oooohh, Bos. You little tease, you.

What colour handbag are you carring today alan , a nice little summer number ?

stockdog, i know you are not supposed to tweak them. All i was trying to say was the minute my stop loss gets triggered there will be a RNS which wud make me an unhappy bunny. (Ihave been in this share since 3.83 and topped up twice to an average of 8.7 p/s---so here Iam feeling a bit smug but also a bit stupid that I have now developped a little love affair with this stock which i know is the worst you can do-at least the missus does not mind about lady SEO)

SEO should be done for bigomy.

A rather fetching fuschia number with large green blooms.

Nice one ,,knowing you it matches the dress perfectly...

Not only the dress but the complexion also!!!

two pretty chunky sells. Not long at this rate before a few stoplosses start popping

i'm hoping i have just caught the bottom.

i think some stop losses have already been triggered

baza

poor souls ... Bos, reckon you have caught the bottom. For today anyway, tomorrow is another adventure.

WT Worked Principle Trade.

what's one of those?

Bosley Hi,


ALL SETS volume must be declared that trading day. Almost all institutional/MM trades of more than 8 times NMS where the order is worked to improve on size or volume of trade is"held" under what's commonly known as a "worked principle agreement" ( WPA) this enables the two parties to avoid instantly reporting the trade.

On SEAQ - trades of larger than 6 times NMS are automatically held up for 1 hour, Protected trades are delayed until the MM wants to book it out ( again like a WPA the theory is that these trades are still open for adjustment)

The only real exception to all of the above is a "Block Trade" in this instance on SEAQ stocks a trade of greater than 80 times (might be 75- can't remember!) NMS allows the trade to be held up from trade reporting for 5 working days, OR until 90% of the risk has been unwound..


Cheers,
PM

so a wt trade is one in which someone wants to either secretly dump shares or secretly collect shares.?

This could have been from yesterday LSE says that---
WPA`S (WN&WT) should be published at end of market close or 80% offset

OR ---if entered after 3.00 pm can be held until market close the next day, or 80% offset
------------
no its not secret dealing, its merely to ensure that the market doesn`t get shafted- it can help punters actually

ps bos- study this over a glass or two opf wine, mine is nicely chilled and waiying

g`luck

ps
shit can`t get this thing to work, stick `trades` in the LSE search box- see you Friday
after you finish

Bosley Hi,

Looking at the prices, and the fact it is two trades, I would say secretly collecting .... also note that they are either "institutional/MM trades" so MM buying is suppressed by a WT rather than an M trade, and and institutional buy is suppressed by a WT rather than a T trade, very sneaky methinks ....

Hi All,

Carrefour - in urgent need of Greenseal and Starpol trays and film ....

I sent all SEO's Greenseal info to Carrefour about 3 months ago, I am hoping that Stanelco will show willing, and make some agreements for European rollout, similar to the Premier and AEIS agreements, once USA rollout is under way :)

PARIS (AP) - French supermarket retailer Carrefour SA said Tuesday its second-quarter revenue rose 2.9 percent, as it increased domestic market share for the first time since 2000.

Paris-based Carrefour, the world's second-biggest retailer by revenue after Wal-Mart Stores Inc., said second-quarter revenue was 20.35 billion euros ($24.76 billion), up from 19.78 billion euros in the same period a year earlier.

The revenue figure was below the 20.67 billion euros ($25.15 billion) estimated by analysts but still represents progress from the first quarter as Carrefour's aggressive price-cutting campaign continues to reverse an 18-month slump in its French stores.

Like most French companies, Carrefour reports revenue separately from profit. Its next earnings statement, covering the first half of 2005, is due Sept. 1.

Sparked by fierce competition and the spread of bargain basement discount retailers, the lengthy slump in its French business eventually led to Carrefour's first profit warning in 12 years, issued last October. While it operates more than 11,400 stores in 29 countries, Carrefour still generates nearly half of all revenue on its home territory.

Under pressure from core family shareholders, Chief Executive Daniel Bernard was ousted in February and replaced by a management pairing of retail veteran Luc Vandevelde, as non-executive chairman, and former chief financial officer Jose Luis Duran, named chief executive.

Describing 2005 as a year of transition, the management pair have declined to provide guidance on sales and earnings for this year.

In France, Carrefour said second-quarter revenue rose 0.3 percent to 9.82 billion euros ($12.0 billion) from 9.79 billion euros in the year-earlier period.

Revenue from French "hypermarkets," Carrefour's biggest single business unit, edged up 0.4 percent to 5 billion euros ($6.08 billion) from 4.98 billion euros a year earlier.

Though small, the increases have been achieved against a backdrop of what Carrefour described as a "very challenging" trading environment, as prices across Europe are squeezed amid belt-tightening by euro-zone consumers.

Analysts have praised Carrefour's price-cutting drive for boosting customer numbers and volumes, despite its negative impact on operating margins.

Carrefour said Tuesday that the total number of customer transactions in its French hypermarkets rose 1.4 percent from the first to second quarters, allowing it to increase its home market share "for the first time since 2000."

While encouraged by its performance in France, Carrefour warned that the tough trading its seen since the end of last year actually worsened in the second quarter.

But a program of store openings and extensions, combined with the price cutting, is allowing the company to "build momentum" as it enters the second half of the year, Carrefour said.
