09:20GMT 25Nov2008-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.

Four winning days from five is a rising trendis it not.and why do you have to be insulting? Name calling is not funny. just extremely rude and childishI am sure your parents taught you better manners Gausie.

To take your questions one at a time.


1. Four winning days from five is a rising trendis it not

you might want to revise your wednesday figure. At 12:54, when you posted, the price was already off 3p - yet you misrepresented it as a rise.

And no, three rising days from 5 (or for that matter 3 rising days from 10) is in no way an uptrend. A rising trend is defined in the new thread referred to above. (the 'green shoots' one comprising example stocks who have rising trends )

2. and why do you have to be insulting? Name calling is not funny

I call it as I see it. You're an arse.

Chilli,

Four rising days in five is called a swallow. And one swallow doesn't make a summer.

I call it as I see it. I dont think you can see anythingyou are just a very rude and childish person that is economical with the truth that has surprised me
I cant believe the positions you have held with the attitude you take
By the way any position that shows a profit will do for me.look at the SPs on bvic rsa. On a market 90 points downI dont have to give a Ruth Rendal running commentary for 2%.chicken feed!
Hilaryas far as I can remember I rise every dayand most nights.

Breaking news - Woolworth in admin!

And MFI

I was shopping this afternoon, hence the lack of posts.

I went in BHS and fond loads of things to buy. Good quality Xmas gifts of the spices, various infused oils type etc. All done in excellent presentation packaging and made of good materials. Nice clothes, especially womens woolens.

Then I went into M&S. What a change! Very poor quality Xmas gifts. It felt drab and downmarket. It was like being in Woolworth. Mainly overpriced badly designed clothes. The nicer woolens were similar to BHS, but at around a third more in price. M&S were empty and BHS were buzzing. No 20% off needed to get the customers into BHS. Saying that I was told quietly by an assistant that BHS are also having a 20% off day (maybe this Friday in the store I was in).

M&S are doomed and will only recover when Green buys them for around 230p after they have dropped to about 168p.
