Confidence could be uplifted again...not a colossal amount 13000 shares but at a good level no doubt, could rise here again...

Bought myself as a result, as chart appears to give me confidence...

MARKS RISING AT LONG LAST....

phewwwwwww...!

could be marks n spencers day afterall yet..

2.86p to buy..2.92 finish at close would be grt...

HOLD @ 287 says Investec Securities.

Despite the Positive regarding the sales outlook they remain cautious.However,
they suggest there could be a slight bounce after recent weakness rgds

Hold for sure but buy on weakness is a better way of terming a cheap or oversold stock, Every broker has different comments...

6 SAY BUY
2 SAY HOLD
1 SAY SELL

WHo do you listen to ?...

Well it just depends on which you read on the day... retail investors suffer from brker comments, the worst being, they make a statment Canary wharf for instance...stating stock will fall to 2.05-2.10..ONLY so that they can buy on the fall and then make it rise again, due to volumes they trade...Should be regulated further I'd say, as they manipluate for their own greed... Capitalism...?

MKS - for a target of 3.00 -3.05 short term, the appetitie is back...

MKS turning point and test was yesterday - as MKS did not fall on EX div day which was a key turning point for this Blue chip stock. Double whammy a real treat when this occurs and positive I'd say.

Every stock has it's rest weeks, and MKs is no different, Institutions will be buying up MKS as it starts to rise...

THe results were very good above any forecast, and so it fell, but it Slowly fell from 3.16 to 3.05 to 2.96 then rising back to 3.12 and then to 3.05 and recent lowest level 2.82.

The reverse may about to happen now rise from 2.82 to 2.87 to 2.96...3.05-3.12 and so forth...

Look at ICI and CW where it was, the list is endless...PATIENCE is the key word in investing especially Blue chips...

aplogies - I think I've written too much..YAWN....zzz..zz..z..

bLESSEM MOVING UP ON LOW VOLUME...(SOMETHING i CANT GET TO GRIPS WITH...)

Somtimes volumes on stocks can be HUUUGGGEE...but stock goes down...MM's thats what...

anyway ARGEN look like a good day ahead of us...

I agree - 100 per cent - with your Broker post.
I was just posting what they said.
...............
Volumes can be very confusing.
Just an OPINION :-
Huge volumes and shares going down : Institutions assessing and pricing in all
the info--just like water finds its own level

MKS Down at the moment - however as expected buyers flocking in to pickup Bargain basement price of 2.73P!!!

TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE IMHO...

- I like this...looking to make a bob or two on MKS now..

Making a comeback from low point of 2.70p

Now 2.74/5 -2.74/75 recouping earlier losses as institutions and retail investor pick up a pre xmas sale...

Nov 17 :-

They bought 1,000,000 of their own shares @ 280.6916

Argen they always doa buyback when price goes week or just bfore market closes...wish they were buying me..in a one sense they are...

The las 15mins recovery today was seen as positive...hopefully the trend continues for rest of week...fingers crosses as a lot of trades went through today..

Still early, but glad to say MKS Uptrend appears to be continuing it's way through this morning. Would be excellent to see it back to 2.90+, but who knows?

currently +0.27% - buyers creeping out of their closets slowly...

Nov 19
Board appointment

MKS at long last Rising from the ashes in late trading, now 3p up at 2.77/5

Keep going SPARKS...

They bought 1,000,000 shares for cancellation @ price 275.6435

Hit along with everyone else this AM lower at around 270p-
I too bought in at 273p,
it simply felt miles to cheap for M&S -
what made up my mind was a walk into the local store early in the week.
Good ranges on targeted Xmas items,
but also on clothes and the seasonal food side. Plus it was very very
busy in there and to me that often points the way with retail shares, a visit
to the local store can reveal an awful lot - sort of 'on foot' research
(lol)

Also just bought some at lowest point 2.69!

Down on Istanbul etc...Retail SALES Indicator reported today was up double the expectation today at 0.6% as opposed to expected 0.3%....

So good news for xmas shopping...

They purchased 1,000,000 @ 272.0477 today

Purchased 675,000 @ 271.2652

Investor Chronicle mag Tips MKS as a BUY...in this weeks issue..

Looking good again..

Looks like their 271.2652 was a shrewd buy -- unless they have gone lower today
