Dr. Martens – Q3 ‘in line with full year guidance’, but that’s not really an achievement!…

Footwear brand company Dr. Martens (DOCS) has issued its third quarter, to end-December, trading statement with CEO Kenny Wilson commencing that, “Our Q3 performance is in line with the updated full year guidance provided in November” and concluding “we are taking action to continue to grow our iconic brand and invest in our business. We remain confident in our product pipeline for AW24 and beyond”. What of a current around 81p share price in response to the announcement?

Dr. Martens – interims & having been relying on trading improvement, another profit warning (quelle surprise!)...

Previously writing on footwear brand company Dr. Martens (DOCS) earlier this month with the shares at 118p on it “delighted to appoint” a new CFO, I noted good luck to him as I concluded ‘with its half-year results to 30th September therefore not set to be good - and scheduled for 30th of this month - and I questioning second half improvement it is relying on considering also the current consumer environment, I suggest this is currently a what financial position will Giles Wilson be taking on?, £1.15 billion market capitalisation, avoid/sell’. Today the half-year results headlined “Strategic progress despite challenging USA backdrop”… so what of a share price currently down from a 114.8p last close towards 85p?!

Dr. Martens – emphasises some “very good growth” in line with expectations, but what’s the current bottom-line reality?

Footwear brand company Dr. Martens (DOCS) has issued an AGM trading update including that trading since the start of its financial year has been in line with its expectations, with some “very good growth in both EMEA and APAC, with continued strength in retail as traffic recovers post covid, and good ecommerce growth”.

Previously writing on footwear brand Dr. Martens (DOCS), in April with the shares up towards 155p I noted CFO ‘retires’ & trading warning but CEO Kenny Wilson reckons he looks forward to sharing more details at the full year results! and concluded that it remained a 2021 IPO Roll-Call of Shame avoid/sell. The shares most recently closed at 156.3p… but are currently heading towards 140p on the back of the results Kenny Wilson reckoned he was looking forward to sharing more details at!

Previously writing on footwear brand Dr. Martens (DOCS), in January with the shares slumping to around 155p I wrote “demand for Dr. Martens remained resilient”, did it though Mr Wilson?, concluding it remains an IPO Roll-Call of Shame avoid / sell.

Previously writing on footwear brand Dr. Martens (DOCS), in November with the shares slumping to 222p I questioned of its CEO who do you think you are kidding Mr Wilson, if you think the performance is ‘pleasing’? – concluding with another 2021 IPO Roll-Call of Shame and that the shares still looked overvalued. They last closed at 209.2p… and today a “trading statement”.

Dr. Martens – who do you think you are kidding Mr Wilson, if you think the performance is ‘pleasing’?

Footwear brand Dr. Martens (DOCS) CEO Kenny Wilson reckons that he is “pleased to report another strong set of results… Underlying revenue growth was 18% and the EBITDA margin was in line with our guidance”. So why are the shares currently 22.5% lower on the back of the results announcement to 222p?

History has shown over the years though, that buying housebuilders at times like this usually pays off handsomely on a 2-3 year view. Remember the mid 70's slump and the one from 92-94.I remember making a reasonable turn on Barratt Developments (as it then was) back in the 80's. All a question of timing, but I would venture to suggest anyone with spare cash could probably do worse to accumulate Taylor Wimpey and Barratt Redrow to name but two on a pound cost averaging basis every month over the next 2 years. These things always go in cycles.

well for starters my siblings are girlsThen both went into and stayed in the public sector while I have never been part of the lanyard wearing classes so me and my sisters would be a more diverse board than 4 women of roughly the same agem class, skin colour and careers as managers ( not entrepreneurs) who share the same bien pensant views

Skins NED appointment – not very diverse & comes with a Bixby Edwards stink

JOHN BROWN12 Nov 2026

All might have different family lives, different health problems, different early years education, different likes, dislikes etc. The list is infinite. Narrowing diversity down to a few boxes to tick is a category error that plays into the hands of identity politics. Having people from different races, different genders, different sexual preferences won't stop GroupThink. How do we know they don't all go to the same pub and listen to the same pub bore?

I remember posting these similar questions to you Tom a while ago and you weren't too impressed. I knew we would get towards the end of the year with fuck all update from the company not Harry. It's outrageous how poor the Comms have been since such a huge incident. Has any work been done? That perinnel access road nearly completed.... I expect another placing towards q1 if not sooner as it burns cash and then it'll be claimed it's needed for Saudi. If that happens then I'll be out as I doubt this will go anywhere if they don't get something done on the next few months.They have to get rid of Harry, the market hates him and his antics.

Milton Friedman, as far as I am aware, never suggested that the ONLY thing that causes inflation is increasing the money supply. MV=PT is a fundamental economic principle. If P (price levels = inflation) is rising, it can be reduced to the extent that one of the other factors in the equation can be influenced. V (velocity of money circulation) is difficult to control. That leaves M & T. T can be influenced by taxation and government spending. Friedman just argued that reducing M through interest rate rises is the most effective way to do it; since interest rates have a big effect on M.

There's a building bonanza in my leafy corner of Berkshire: new estates of hundreds, even thousands of houses. And developers even angling in the new Local Plan to build thousans of homes on my bloody Green Belt. This is partly because the clowns who sit on my local council have failed to maintain something called their 5-year housing land supply and that awful ginger woman has punished them by overturning all their planning refusals on appeal.These builders don't put a spade in the ground unless they are confident their tacky new boxes will sell. So, I'm thinking that the pttern must be repeating across the country.In addition, for the first time in umpty years, my council has put its hand in its pocket to build some old-fashioned, state-owned social housing and that must be occurring elsewhere too.At least some builders must profit from all this madness.

As cash builds from dividends in the childrens LISAs from sensible companies. I again find myself looking at averaging down into KEFI or should I buy something with a rising dividend. Adding to sensible to create more sensible for the future.No need to send a graduate to Ethiopia for the cost of a plane ticket Stifel could employee a graduate in Ethiopia for 6 months. Getting photos of the project daily.A graduate really does only earn £50 to £80 a month. 4 to 7 hours on minimum wage in the UK.Kefi is clearly staying cheap for all the reasons you suggest.With a two year build there could be company announcements weekly or monthly at the least.Not RNS but again you could have an employee based in Ethiopia who produces updates from Tulu Kapi. Have this on the website and encourage all shareholders to sign up for email updates. An employee on 50p an hour in Ethiopia. About 2 hours of Harrys pay would cover that for a year?In 2 years time we will be millionaires.
