The charts have turned very negative for Carphone Warehouse over the past month, they are trading at a very high price earnings ratio, all retailers have reported a poor Christmas, they are losing market share to the likes of Tesco and have got a poor rating from JD Power in Customer satisfaction.

Just for the record....

These have been on the slide of late (probably mainly due to general retail negative news) but a well run outfit all the same IMHO.

Trading update this Wednesday, so what's the feeling here on a bounce In price...or not for these?

they are one of the few shops not offering a return after 7 days policy.I stood in a Q of several finding that out yesterday, dreadful people.The law only covers telephone and on-line purchases for returns,it`s merely a voluntary customer care if you buy `in-shop`, but there again customers returning for more gear is voluntary, I know many who will vote with their feet.
Some firms haven`t got a clue about customer care, cowboys.

Not nice to hear that , iv'e been in these from 235p and they look like carrying on at the moment ,being tipped just about everywhere , although i have never bought any goods from their stores,, mind you if you saw my mobile you'd know why ,Charles Dunstone wasn't born when this was made...

Volume up so Is the price today, any guesses as to which Institutions are buying In?

Went long 1st thing this morning. SG have issued buy note.

Missed that, thanks G.

Taken some profits +8.5 and hoping for a drop to maybe get In again after today.

and some more +6.

Out of these now......but have a sneaky feeling price will rise in the near future.

Read the opening statement, how wrong can you be????????????? good sneaky feeling Stan, did you get back in?? Hearing good things about this company, more to come imho!!

Too bad Carphone Warehouse is drifting down to 286p today...all this after director's sell off... looks like it will drift towards 250p.

HYLeo98, I think that is too optimistic. Perhaps you have gone short!

...Sadly not Kivver.

This co is drifting down i have it on very good authority they are unable to pay thier bills, we need a clear statement of this companies affairs from Mr Langstaff

A reliable inside source at BSY says, BSY have been selling in order to undercut the shares in order to make a killing when they rise when CPW post their next progress statement; which from all accounts is on track to damage BSY

Did any of YOU take heed of my information posted 11/08/2006--Because it is certainly going to happen!!!!

BSkyB shorting CPW???? ...... a very strange thing to do when they have their own biz to run and are not traders ..... take that story with a bag of salt.

That said, CPW may well now be over-shorted, as it has been a fave stock for quite a while with the bears

arguably may now have missed the boat though there may still be 20-25p to go for until resistance is hit

sp suddenly surged to target level so i have taken my profit thank you very much!

Pipeline comes up with an unsubstantiated "red hot story" that bid is imminent if not yesterday ...... must have a direct line with God.
Paintshop, another comedian, reckons he has a "reliable source" that says BSY are shorting the stock.

My own view is that the surge is much more prosaic = "normal trading" bears taking their profits with a subsequent squeeze by MMs.

Time will tell whether or not I am the buffoon and the comedians the Oracles of Delphi
