Prime Markets in the Press - JJB Sports (JJB)

28/09/2010

London equity markets were down on Tuesday as all of the most heavily-weighted sectors joined the sell off on concerns over slowing global economic growth.

On the FTSE 250 index, JJB Sports plummeted 6.8 per cent to 10.5p. Investors were unconvinced by announcements of significantly reduced half-year losses and retail revenue gains of 14.4 per cent to August.

“The group is still running heavy operating losses, and is now faced with increasing volatility and an uncertain economy in the run up to Christmas,” said Richard Curr at Prime Markets. “We believe the JJB turnaround story warrants little more than a sell into strength for the shares at present.”
