Laura Ashley Plc (ALY.L)
December 18th, 2007The great bastion of 1980s floral chic has grown out of its clothes.
Not necessarily that the fawning Princess Di lookalikes of SW3 have got a bit large across the beam, more that the firm has found itself in fashion again.
The question for investors is: “Will it find itself climbing the FTSE as much as watching Trinny and Susannah makes us climb the walls?”

December 18th, 2007 at 8:49 amI remember when Laura Ashley had all those problems and looked like it would disapear be it for it’s brand name and value/sentiment was way low. Share price was around 26p. Guess what I’ve just had a quick look and guess what it’s still 26p. Nothing to get me excited about although my good lady and I went in to do some christmas shopping at the new Stevenage store. Well Father Christmas will be busy after all, bringing my little one a new duvet cover. I on the other had did my shopping next door….The new Maplin store. Just a boys dream!
Heavens! A crunch has become chaos and carnage and the market only seems to go one way –meltdown. Perhaps, it is not the best time in the world to be cheerfully giving investment ideas, given it’s so difficult to pick anything out of all of this mess. Just look at our portfolio.
