anything under 7 cheap cheap cheap. good div. just paid. chart looks sick

ChocoI have never disagreed that there is a severe slump in high street salesthe Telegraph article that you have posted never once mentioned M&S in comparison to its other rivalslook carefully how it is worded.Marks & Spencer is expected to hold a second "one day spectacular" next month when it knocks 20 per cent off most of its prices. another 20% day is going to happen because it was so very successful and well ahead of its main rivals. please look at my posts 328... 334... 342.

interestingly, even Mulberry is having a mega clearout from their showroom at heavily discounted prices .... or at least for those with the right contacts!

CynicI will not be going round the Mulberry Bush if they had a 75% day it would still be expensiveI cant see many families diving in?

doh! .... showroom sale, not a family day out!!

What about this news item yesterday

STOCKS NEWS UK-M&S dips on report of another one-day sale
Shares in Marks & Spencer fall 4.9 percent to 207.5 pence following a report in the
Daily Telegraph newspaper that the clothing, food and homewares group is considering holding another one-day sale on Dec. 4 to follow on from its '20-percent off' sale last Thursday.

'The more of these things you do there's obviously an expectation from consumers and you're not going to get the full margin,' says KBC analyst John Stevenson.

Marks & Spencer declines to comment.

So we can expect it fall again when they have their next sale on 4 Dec.

Haystack.you can expect the trend to follow with a rise in SP!.it aint difficult!

The trend looks down to me!

Haystacksince the 20% day.which part cant you understand? The trend has been upwardsWhat was your job?
Thu 20/11 +5.55 +2.78%
fri 21/11 -1.50 -0.73
mon 24/11 +14.25 +6.99%
Tues 25/11 +1.75 +0.08
Wed 26/11 +0.25 +0.11

that chart sure looks like a downtrend to me.

Yes there's a ripple up, but the trend is most certainly down.

that was not the argument Gausie...as youwell know.
Just a thought haystack.did you grow up with Dilhe has a history of getting things muddled up

Gausieas you are an expert on charts.what percentage of upwards charts can you quote meI have a feeling it is going to go quite!

There's loads if you know where to look.

Gausieyou are as predictable as a one legged man losing an arse kicking contest.

Tabby - You're an arse - so I guess I'll see you there.

Anyone else - have posted a couple of shares showing rising trends onto this new thread: Green Shoots?

ps - lucky escape from MKS long - they're getting absolutely mullered.
