Ecclesiastes 11:2: “Divide your portion to seven, or even to eight, for you do not know what misfortune may occur on the earth.”

If things are really going gangbusters than even Hallensteins might be finally showing earnings growth
Profit about the same as it was 5 years ago and F19 was a disaster
My big parcel of Black Friday specials arrived a while ago ....had to chase the parcel down the road in the 130k winds. Stupid courier left it on the ground in the street by the letter box ...stupid eh
I should have said the stuff never arrived ....might have got two lots

“ At the top of every bubble, everyone is convinced it's not yet a bubble.”
I dont think anyone mentioned it but there was an article about how more consumers are doing their online shopping with local companies , gotta be good!

So hanging in there (no need for beagle to work out last 8 weeks growth this year)
Wonder whether the sales increase will cover the lost margins.
Doubt they will tell us next Wednesday at the agm.
Think they will have to wait to the end of January before they have a clearer picture.

Last year HLG couldn't convert solid sales growth into increased profit
On an apples for apples basis sales up 6% but profit down 4%
Last year things were just 'challenging' but this year they use words like 'competitive' and 'significant'
A good full year outcome I reckon will be profit the same as last year ....no growth but not going backwards...and keeping that HUGE DIVIDEND intact
