Tabatha - you send the wife out to work instead.

As for myself, I don't have to do anything.

Another sign of retail downturn!

A closing down sale is to begin at Woolworths tomorrow morning after administrators failed to find a buyer for the high street chain.

Job Fears As Woolies Rescue Fails
Fears are growing for thousands of Woolworths staff after the administrators said they had failed to find a buyer for the troubled high street chain.

Woolworths, which has 813 stores, collapsed last month after a rescue deal fell through.

It employs 30,000 staff, with around 25,000 working in retail.

Call me old fashioned haystackbut wtf has that got to do with M&Scouldnt think of two more different storesM&S dont need another 20% daysold enough Christmas stock to not have to worryunless you went in Woolworths thinking it was M&Sthat figures!!!M&S are green.Woolworths are red.you will usually find Colin and his shammy with the loped off ladder doing Woolworths windows!!!

How would you know what colour they both are? Thanks for letting me know, though.

Retail had some good times selling all manner of "fashion" - but now it looks like we ( that's women), were duped - it's not fashion, it's just different.
In Woeful times that old sweater can be brought out many times, along with several designs of shoes, so no-one need ever know - we'll all be doing the same.

Expensive "food" might look nice on the telly, but it's all the same in the end - "expensive." - and there are far better places to put yr money, like save for a modest holiday in Margate.

The latest issue of "Sharess" (Letters page):-points to the [MKS]wasteful "Buyback" programme under SR - and I suspect that will continue until he's either "replaced" or "runs out of cash" - it's not good Management when a slowdown starts to become the "norm" - and maybe we won't see the "retail" likes of 2003-5 for another 10-years.

hangon

are you short too?

Gausieas picked out by other postersyour methods of calling M&S correct is giving investors great confidence in backing your opposite calls!I have a premium phone linekeep postingit is giving me ideas?

Tabby

Having discredited yourself and been shown up as a clueless and lying bullshitter on the MDX thread (see link below), are you trying to achieve the same thing here?

Look at yesterday's trades: bought some at 221.5, sold a slightly higher number at 231.5. Current price 226. That's called channel trading - and I'm rather pleased with it so far.

I've banked profit on every tranche that I've traded, and reported on here - bar the very first. The short position that I'm building has a volume weighted average slightly below 230 - so that's in profit too - and gets a couple of thousand shares bigger with every tranche traded.

Your claim that a trader trading MKS in the opposite direction to me over the past few weeks would have made money is wrong - by over 10,000.

I don't think you get it. Get back to your doughnut holes and beer consumption.

I can't help but feel that you're trying to change the subject and attempting to wriggle out of your exposure as a liar posted on the mdx thread in post 5052.

He's probably just miffed coz his marks and sparks short went wrong as usual ;o)

Vintage oudinot....2002......119.94

lol - learn the difference between opinion and fact. A requote of one of your alias's posting an opinion that flys in the face of the facts doesnt really achieve anything does it?

It's even funnier when you take account of the fact that the MKS trades listed on here have made an excellent return for me - yet the guy who's own posts on MDX (if true ...) demonstrate that he's lost almost 200k on MDX's decline feels the need to criticise such winning MKS trades.

Interesting post from the dark side

Dec 11th "Analysts at Morgan Stanley said a "big step-up in markdowns" was likely to affect M&S margins, making its assumption of flat gross margins in general merchandise "unachievable".

finally the press coming round. I've been banging this drum for a while now and is in essence (coupled with their low footfall) why I'm staying short over xmas (unless we spike to 2.80+).. MKS can sell everything 3 times over but if you don't make enough margin (profit) then you just have mo' problems next year.. I believe *allegedly the city want Rose out aswell.. nasty.
