HLG - Hallenstein Glasson

[winner69]

Thank you for playing Devil's advocate here, hopefully I can beat the SP down 10 cents on a temporary basis so I can buy some more on the cheap, oh my goodness did I really say that out loud

1. Currency could hurt them, when it was circa 64-5 cents last year it hurt.
1.a. They're going fairly short with forward cover so a sharp currency drop could have an effect even this year
2. A possible fall in consumer confidence caused by any major factor including a material increase in interest rates
3. Rising mall rents
4. Competition opening up at a greater rate than HLG are able to meet with refreshed store formats, (refreshing of store format has boosted sales in stores near where new competition has opened up)

Isn't 4 really just Zara, Topshop and H&M SMASHING them

HLG doesn't have a chance

Make Jeremy's day - SELL SELL SELL SELL

And that includes you seeweed

......you did say anything?

We could add activists getting their act together and causing chaos as they highlight Hallensteins and Glassons unethical practices - esp in their supply chain

[Beagle]

Yeah they're in desperate trouble with all those new competitors mate...according to quite a few commentators on here a few months back HLG were headed down the same path as Pumpkin Patch LOL.
Please hit my buying bid tomorrow, all donations to the hounds welfare fund gratefully received

Anything you think COULD hamper the share price?

If our dear friend Couta takes a large(r) holding. That never seems to end well.




(we love you though Couta).

Yes indeed we do. To be fair he's done pretty well out of AIR is a soft market in recent months. Net of the recent special and final divvy totaling 35 cps he told me his average entry price is $1.94.

Definitely not something to be trifled with that's for sure I think I got to 38 cps without any persuasion or special sauce a while back...if I overindulge I might imagine those two numbers around the other way LOL.

P.S. Anyway speaking of Christmas and gift giving...HLG the gift you give yourself that keeps on giving...can we please have a brief hiatus in all the positive posts, I'd like to stuff a few more into my own Xmas stocking as close as possible to $3.00.

I felt that way when I sold out at 2.72c about 4 months back at a small profit, hoping they would fall back to where I bought in at 2.61 to 2.69c., av=2.65c. There were a few people pumping back then, so had to buy back in from 2.89 to 3.16= 3.02 av...... join the club....pump pump pump.

5. Very unseasonable weather, e.g. wet / coldish summer, hot dry autumn, record warm winter temperatures, or all the preceding.

Great thoughts Roger.

Its one of those odd ones where I want it to go down before it goes back up so I can buy some more!!! Are we being too greedy....up up and away I say!!

One thing I really like about Hallensteins is their honesty in announcements. They seem to be very transparent and admit when they've had disappointing years. I like that. I go to the future with a lot of confidence and you know what, it feels good being an investor in a clothing company that battles off the big guys

Newbie alert, in the pool of sharks ask yourself who is the food.

Bought my final lot last Thursday, but if they happen to go back to 2.95-3.00, then might be tempted to buy more at that level.
