FCCN

SCSW spelling it out for punters today re international brand, rocketing wholesale etc.

From SCSW today, nicked this from across the road


Re wholesale:

"Sales to John Lewis and internet based e-tailers such as ASOS increased substantially during the year and continue to show growth. Spring/Summer orders delivered in January were up c.15%. Winter 2011 forward orders are also running well ahead and the general expectation is that UK wholesale is going to record another year of double-digit growth"

Wholsale margins are way higher than retail.

i know i am renownedly thick, but i always thought FCCN was a retailer! ..... as such i wouldn't go near it as uk high street mid-price fashion is dire - just look in your own town,; you don't need to be a genius

BVS still going nicely, good call gf

Investors Inteligence morning read.

Ahhh cynic pineapple bonce FCCN, think you owt to re read up on it. Wholesaler, loads of cash, Sears in US. Retailers are probably the next miners, now that mining boom is coming to end as i predicted a month back.

Dont forget the market is always 9 month to year in front of the real economy.

Gone short of FXPO and Brwm. Goldmans latest bearish call been taken up by otheres as well now on miners.

Todays morning read........

Gone long DRX as a defensive. check the 5 year chart, this could be the start of something big.

DRX could be a good call.....

The video clip (4:35) below is taken from a very good article at

http://www.channel4.com/news/timber-prices-up-as-power-plants-boost-biomass-use

By the way, in the recent 'sell the forests fiasco', I wonder if the goverment were hoping to sell some of the pine forests to the likes of Drax?

Like watching paint dry this market, both long and short, doesnt know where to go.

Interesting vid ExecLine

Wednesday, April 13, 7:24 AM Following Monday's close of its CCCP trade and yesterday's downgrade of oil price expectations, Goldman goes for a commodity trifecta, lowering its forecast for year end copper prices by 11%. Josh Crumb believes a critical drawdown on inventories will be avoided in 2011, but is bullish for 2012.

Well been a good day bar the market. Been here fishing at my dam from 6.30 am. Caught 2 tiddlers. Supped about 15 cans of larger and fish and chips from the local fish shop brilliant.

Cant get a good connection from this lap top though, think its on its way out. No chance of getting twitter and advfns been difficult... but who cares about advfn.

think Ill do it tomorrow aswel.

Will have to get the lads to stock this water with some trout.

Hmmm just seen a couple rising, think Ill stay a few more hour have a snooze and put the rod on auto.

Sausage and chips for tea from the same chippy me thinks.

Forgot to mention went long of VLX volex this morning. Copper prices coming down is good news for them. Good update today aswel.

Looks like another non event day on the market ...either way. Going fishing again (slept like a log last night)

Heres todays morning read for what its worth, I see the chief honcho has got the same idea as me and had the day off......

Today - Friday, April 15, 10:11 AM Capping off a week of bearish calls, Goldman Sachs expects hard assets to underperform for the next 3-6 months, citing "mounting downside risks" to current high crude oil prices - signs of U.S. "demand destruction," Nigerian elections, potential Libyan ceasefire. But it maintains its overweight allocation on a 12-month horizon due to "tightening fundamentals" over the next year.

From Yesterday....

Goldman Moves To Underweight On Commodities

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/14/2011 23:58 -0400

CopperCrudeCrude Oil


Nobody could have seen this one coming: "Mounting downside risks to current exceptionally high crude oil prices are leading us to recommend an underweight allocation to commodities on a 3 to 6-month horizon, but we maintain an overweight on a 12-month horizon on tightening fundamentals over the next year....Not only are there now nascent signs of demand destruction in the United States, but also elections in Nigeria, a potential ceasefire in Libya and record market length on contagion fears. Further, softening near-term base metals balances suggest that a stock-out in copper inventories and associated price spikes has now been deferred beyond 2011, and recent gold price strength has pushed us close to our near-term price targets. As a result, we now recommend an underweight allocation to commodities on a 3 to 6-month horizon." Translation: please line up and convert your hard assets for dilutable fiat courtesy of the good folks doing god's work.

Interesting comments in the current weekend FT. Some commentary suggested some of the bombed out sectors are worth a look, including Real Estate & Retailers. Also suggesting Pharmas and Insurers.

Amongst the retailers MKS and DEB were suggested as potential takeover targets but also as pedigree stocks in a dog sector!

Anyway, with that in mind, Mothercare came up on my stock screener today.



5 year chart even more interesting:
