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?

We all have to take the odd hit, to keep going.

They may recover, they get taken over.

I am into RTO for the same result, but I will wait till the dust settles to see what happens.

BFP I hold a few, but I did pare these down just before the last drop.

Some you win..........

Would`nt you know it. I got out this morning along with a large amount of others and the SP goes up - guess I`ll be back in soon as thats "The Wonder of Woolies"!

The rang will be 39p to 49p over the next 6 months imho, so don't despair.

It's a waiting game to get in at the right price.

Anything below 42p is right, but do what you think is right.

The interims rwally don't do a lot for me, but there is a real promise of 'Jam tomorrow' here if you can wait.

its going well now sw.

Less of the wonder of woolies more the slow crawl of woolies LOL
up a bit more now - everybody 1....2.....3....PUSH!!!!
(Well gotta get it moving somehow!)

As I said, I am usually wrong!

It bothered me that they would not say as all other retails eem to have done that August was not too good.

Declining to comment means is was not good in my book.

going great today,sadly i am not in but good luck you holders . 50 pence mite not be to far away,,as for 39/41 range,,,,thats gone for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you're right Dave, another run at 40p I could do without.

i would not mind,but my coins have run dry,you will br ok wiyh that 45 looks cheap,christmas sales at these stores account for 25% of yearly sales and they will do really well.

post 81 is very near now and christmas not far away.

its as near give or take as 40p.

Actually I think 42.75p is the new bottom, been there twice and bounced off again.

Christmas looks promising.

If you hold then well done.

Most of my cash is tied now till they hit the next gusher.

Luck sb

Sw,i dont hold any wlw but i think i saw it at 46 so going well.

Currently UP a WHOLE PENNY!!!!
Can I stand the pressure, excitement and anticipation of possibly
sometime soon hitting 47p a share???
;>)

hopefully xmas should be good but i wont hold my breath as i feel people are to busy fretting about the price of oil to spend there dosh W?HAT DO YOU THINK?

Old retail stocks,come of age in december 25% is it of sales in one month,new format stores,with a bright future,,then again is the home shopper deserting the high street,,surly not at christmas !!

Can't see the average Mum struggling to get all the Christmas
selection boxes she needs and all the toys and struggle home to
hide them away before the kids get home from school worrying a great
deal about the price of oil somehow - it's a question of perspective
and for most people who don't trade shares etc, that doesn't go beyond
filling stockings and stomachs this time of year. So personally NO
I can't see the vast majority of the Woolies customer base being
bothered at all about the price of oil.

What bothers me is the extent of the price cutting and offers - have they
got it right (will sales volumes offset the low margins?) or will they
be working incredibly hard and not actually making a lot?

Analysis visit today must have gone well - up to 47p!
Note for the diary - Xmas trading update due Jan 15th

stockbunny I think you have given this a really good revieew above.

The price is healthy at the moment seems back in favour.

I would have bought in a while ago at 42 and a few buts but like dave, had everything tied so not I have missed this bus.

I will try to join in agin sometime I am sure as this has done me proud since I started trading.

Good luck and health to your enemies enemies.

Good to hear from you SeaWallWalker - Be Lucky!!
