Market Report: Taking Stock
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Rosebys, the household textiles and soft furnishings retailer, should achieve a dramatic profits advance this year. Mark Charnock at Charterhouse Tilney has lifted his forecast by pounds 1m to pounds 13m. Last time the company produced just over pounds 7m.
Mr. Charnock is shooting for pounds 15.5m next time. He expects further acquisitions. The shares are 316p; they have moved between 280p and 335.5p in the past year.
Arjo Wiggins Appleton, the hard pressed Anglo French paper group where take over hopes often surface, was again actively traded. There is speculation a bid for Worms et Cie., involved in a 39.9 per cent AWA shareholding, could put the paper group in play. AWA shares, in busy trading, fell 7p to 197p; they remain near their 12-month high.
