WHS - Warehouse Group

[ratkin]

Agree BB I'm holding a block at a slightly higher price than they are currently trading at and wouldn't think of selling at a loss as they are a stable dividend hold that are here to stay and a part of NZ culture. I noticed they have just decided as a company to remove all R18 material such as Grand Theft Auto from their shelves on the basis of its graphic violence and sexual content and that it goes against good family and community values, good on them for taking this stand

The community values around here involve boy racing, legal and illegal highs, petty crime and general antisocial behavior. I would have thought grand theft auto was the perfect game for the warehouse community

And it is, one of the best games in a long time and the most successful ever almost. Silly move by the warehouse, no matter how small the supposed impact is. There caving into those with to much time on their hands that complain about anything they can. And those tight ass parents who cant separate fantasy from reality.

You'll just have to look elsewhere for your cheap thrills ratboy However you can bling out your Ford escort, buy great stoner music and practice your shoplifting at the WHS...see...something for everyone. PS I would consider selling up a portion of your share portfolio and moving somewhere else....but then you may have a longer drive to the local WHS...so its a tough call.

Long term the WHS will benefit from this move, parents should encourage their kids into life's more meaningful experiences like fishing and other great NZ outdoor activities including Motorsport etc rather than watching this absolute trash that gratifies degrading other human beings.

So nice to see you taking a few moments away from the gaming console to make a post....now clean up your room before your mother has a fit. Best wishes from your Dad (who used to have a tight ass but has let it go a bit over the last decade).

...
Selling at a loss always tends to cloud ones judgement.
...

Not sure, where this wisdom is coming from? So - are you basically saying that everybody using a stop-loss has a clouded judgement?

I didn't sell because I had to ... and have no hard feelings against WHS (and shouldn't - if I look at the overall value they added over the years to my portfolio (as divvies, as well as appreciation). Just came to the conclusion that there are at current better investment opportunities around. What's wrong with that?

[BIRMANBOY]

Nothing wrong at all.....however you neglected to mention it was a stop loss so yes, in the presence of more information, the clouds would be much less applicable. Different strategies ..you see limiting downside potential of loss...I see increasing likelihood of good buying. So as a trader where do you see your entry point?

Not sure whether I can help you with that one ... I don't consider myself as a trader (my average stock hold time seems to hover around 5 years ... but than, this is an average number ... some stocks I hold for longer and others for shorter periods).

Looking at WHS - it just feels some of their improvements take a long time to implement, and others don't really seem to start. I still visit them from time to time and investigate whether "I can get a bargain". Sometimes I do, but more often I leave disappointed and need to go somewhere else.

If I start to find more of the stuff I want to buy at the Warehouse; if they sell e.g. the stuff I want to wear and hold it even in my size (and not just on the first day after the product release); If the customers in the Warehouse Stationary shops are starting to outnumber staff and if both Warehouse as well as Noel Leemings stop to trail the Customer Satisfaction surveys (Consumer Magazine), than it would be IMHO a good time to look again at buying WHS (obviously - if the price is right ...).

Fair enough...I really don't care what they do or how they do it or who they do it to..its more about the results as they pertain to me. Simplistic I suppose but keeping it simple is my default option. Leaves more brain capacity for Sudoku and what's for dinner

ahh, the internet where assumptions never end. I raised myself mate. I couldn't be more different. just enjoy a good product, and understand that it is just entertainment. You have to be not all there in the head to believe a game influences real worlds crimes. Those kind of people have that in their personality.
