JD Wetherspoon #JDW
Share Price 633p (-4.8%)
Slowing sales momentum.
Recent 9-week period +3.2% but FY +5.1 %. Oh!
No reason to pour in!
Inflexion point not reached yet.
Headwinds of additional costs will slow any recovery.
SP may drip <600p.
Wait for Nov 5th's trading update. Then take action!
Visited #JDW, #MARS & #BME
Wetherspoons constantly busy selling Food & Drink. A Winner!
Marstons didn't serve hot food as ordered. Even forgot some items ordered. Table service failed to clean dining tables. Few customers!
B&M disappointed with range of goods offered. Tough competition. Forget!
Infiltrate the hotline and navigate the streets of love and hate to make change from the inside? Read between the Tarzan lines with the BlacKkKlansman this week. Are-uh you down?

J.D. Wetherspoon #JDW
Share Price 600.5p (-1.8%)
Sales growth but flags challenges from rising labor costs.
Expects to pay an extra £60m in costs.
Could a 3% price increase on food and drink cover it?
#JDW has risks but with relatively small short-term upside.

Tidying up my portfolio.
Could keep both!
Difficult to choose between Wetherspoons #JDW and Kingfisher #KFG.
Breaking even on Wetherspoons #JDW, but have decided to exit in favour of buying more Kingfisher #KFG.
In Kingfisher, I see less risk, more possibilities and quicker share price recovery.
Wetherspoon #JDW
Share Price 624.8p
Bought a 2nd round of drinks (shares).
SP range is now between 615p and 630p after recent substantial falls.
Drink and food prices should be nudged up gradually to meet rising costs.
Building a new position slowly, having patiently waited to start for years.
Another Business says the Budget has Negatively Affected their Growth Plans

Share Price 621.8p
A distraction, the future £60m increase in costs
Are these costs transferable to customers and will be seen as fair? Yes!
Have shareholders been rewarded? LT holders would be disappointed.
Nearing a SP bottom.
I'll chance buying a round today.
A New Purchase
JD Wetherspoons #JDW
Share Price 598p (pre-open)
An increased £60m in costs must be passed on to customers, somehow.

Card Factory #CARD
Share Price 98p
Wetherspoon #JDW
Share Price 730p
My vote goes with Card Factory.
A simpler business by far.
Design, print and sell their own cards.
Less chance of regulation difficulties and tieing up so much capital.
I'm busy averaging in to keep my average price <100p.
JD Wetherspoon #JDW
Share Price 725p (pre-open)
The dividend is back at 12p per share.
Only 40% of alcohol is drunk in pubs. A shrinking market!
It is difficult to know what # JDW's next 10 years will be.
Am I looking at freehold property growth in value?
Trend for the last 20 years may help.
