The last time I wrote about the shares of Marks and Spencer (MKS) was just before the world of Covid-19 kicked in globally. Back then I concluded that “at least the incoming Marks & Spencer CFO knows how to admit a wrong strategy”, and over the last 27 months or so M&S shares have gone down and up. This morning’s rise, after full year numbers publication, of about 11% has taken the shares back to the level of just over 180p of when I last wrote about them. Is the turnaround actually working?
I am sure there are some people who are still very hopeful about their Marks & Spencer (MKS) shares but I dumped mine so long ago that I guess even a pair of its expensive boxers would have worn out by now. Forget though the 60% fall in the company’s share price over the last five years or the 40% fall year-to-date, or even the decision of the CEO to exit stage left after six years in charge, is there any interest in the shares over the next year or not?
