The Case for Marks and Spencer

By Robert Sutherland Smith | Sunday 7 July 2013


Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.


Marks and Spencer (MKS) was once ‘made the weather’ in UK clothes retailing. But that was a long time ago. It was so successful on the high streets of the UK that it’s then commercial mission and revolutionary business model – essentially doing everything in-house from design to sales – was exciting material for management studies. M&S was the future and remained so for many years. 

 

That was until relatively recently as I noted at the weekend HERE in a discussion on Next.
