HLG - Hallenstein Glasson

[see weed]

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

Don't want to appear to be a shark, but you have 2 choices...be very greedy and wait for sp to hit 2.95-3.00 or...be half greedy and just start buy buy buy at 3.05. Am thinking, might start and be half greedy and put in a little order before it hits 3.20.

NZD tumbles to 6 month low v USD

At least HLG are making heaps during the important busy part of the year

Anyway - NZD will be back in the 70's soon

No worries

Just wondering whether the recent WHS announcement (revenue growth but margin squeeze) might apply for HGL as well? Pretty sure anyway that the SP might have a wee dip over he next couple of days ... time to accumulate - or not?

From the Chairman's address seven days ago at HLG's agm.
"Sales 10% ahead of last year.Gross margin is also up and the season so far is showing very strong growth."
We remain "well positioned,"and from what I hear of Christmas trading so far,I am sure we can up grade that to "very well positioned."

Buy half now and 2 half's later on the dip. Bob each way.

Think i will unsubscribe from their deals.They are coming relentlessly , daily, rejigging, reworking their deals; frenetic, urgent. not sustainable imo; turned me off reading them. Maybe its just for the buildup to xmas.

While the HLG bulls continue to get excited, it seems WHS is not finding the Christmas trading conditions quite so favourable.

"The Board of The Warehouse Group advise that performance in the lead up to Christmas has been below expectations and while the next few weeks are an important trading period, it is unlikely that the year to date shortfall will be fully offset. Adjusted Net Profit After Tax (NPAT) for the Group for the First Half of Financial Year 2017 (H117) ending on 29 January 2017 is expected to be between 10%-15% lower than the same period last year, which is between $41.0m and $38.5m."

This, Left Field. WHS is a completely different can of worms than HLG.

Yes, they are relentless. I just ignore them unless I want to buy something, then I wait to see what the next deal is, like Briscoes, there is always a "sale" on

Plenty of wiggle room left in HGL's can.
