Like-for-like sales in the period in 670 UK mature stores were up by 10.9% (2012*: 4.5% in 613 mature stores) partly driven by increased digital marketing activity and more favourable timing of the Christmas break compared to last year.

27 Mar 2014 Domino's Pizza... DOM Numis Buy 538.50 546.00 710.00 710.00 Reiterates

SP Target 710p

funny old share this one
i used to follow and trade it for quite a long time, but as the chart shows, it has rather stagnated

i am now of the opinion that RTN is a better bet, though DOM may well present a decent short-term trade at some point

Bang on uptrend line.

Get it bought cyners.

really?
expecting bounce off 25 dma or is there something else i don't see? ..... ah yes, my eye can follow the support line you mean



by the way, where would you recommend to eat in naples?
i'm staying near the ferry terminal or whatever its called

Cynic,

Naples im based in St Pauls Malta.

If you want to get their......

Naples to Valetta,

taking a ferry from Naples to Catania, then another ferry from Catania to Valetta, then onto St Pauls over land.

i have good reasons to go to malta as have been developing a couple of clients there
hope you're not just using malta as a tax haven - what a terrible thought :-)

i jut thought you said you'd been to naples loads of times; hence the question

I meant to say Malta, apologies cynic.

ps Cyners by the way just your type of trade on chart thread tonight, CFD or S Bet.

JDW looks to have run away, and confess i have not tracked it in the past
may have a look/dabble in DOM before i whizz off for a very full day's work (i know they'll soften it a bit) in a michelin-star restaurant kitchen

I meant Royal Mail.

not one i follow at all, but in that case why mention it on DOM thread!!??
