Any more recent news as to how well their German roll out is going chaps?

What's your German like? :-)

Joking apart, the latest news I've seen is this - Domino's looking to Germany

Yes I saw that skinny but was wondering if there was anything since then.

I can't readily find anything - interims are on Monday 23 July.

OK thanks, maybe Cynic might have something later as he seems to follow these.

i follow but i neither ingest nor digest :-)
i hold these for the reasons stated earlier and would be quite surprised not to see a decent run prior to results

Thanks, no more recent reliable info regarding their German sales then?

nope .... i'm happy to wait and see without chasing around for every snippet

.

DOM had an excellent day today, though it's worth noting how thin the market is in these - barely 800k traded ...... it looks as though there could be some resistance at 520, but of course the real hurdle (if it gets that far) is at about 585

What is amazing this product is not to put to fine a point on it shite! Due to our education system students can't cook so is manah from heaven to them. Not sure the England still in the Euros scenario has any great weight, but any attempt to short at the mo seems doomed. But watching :O)

DOM tend to have a good run before their figures - 23rd July apparently, though i thought it sooner - so selling at lest some in advance may be a good idea ..... however, this time last year, the figures were poor and soft commodities very high, so also be very careful if you intend to short

That's the plan cynic, wait for the figures then make a decision either way.

Domino's is the UK & Ireland operations of the world-leading pizza brand. Domino's outlets are franchised operations.Domino's is a classic example of a roll-out story. Once a retail business can prove itself in one location, massive growth can be achieved by 'rolling out' across more sites.At the end of 2006, Domino's had 407 stores in the UK and Ireland . By the end of 2011, this reached 726. Growing demand for Domino's pizzas has seen turnover increase from £95m to £210m in those five years. In that time, profits have increased threefold as economies of scale have driven margins higher. The shareholder dividend has increased from 3.1p to 12.3p as Domino's matured.It would appear that Domino's growth is not over. A 19.8% increase in eps is forecast for 2012, followed by another 14.4% increase in 2013. Though Domino's is clearly a great company, the shares are no bargain. Using the 2012 consensus forecasts, the shares trade on a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 23.9, giving a prospective dividend yield of just 2.7%.

I'm tempted to go short here, I know we have the olympics etc etc, but 525 (earlier) is almost the 12 month high (527). Interims on 23rd - Any views?

Suspect the olympic premium is already in the price but don't know, but on that basis a short would seem reasonable at current SP.

what effect will the inevitable rise in grain prices have?

It must have an effect further down the line I'd say.

I've had a small short @515.50 so here's hoping.

results due monday i think, so some profit taking likely
