Pennon, a water utility and waste management company, posted a 1H trading statement: "Pennon is on track to deliver resilient financial results in line with management expectations. (...) The impact of COVID-19 to date is broadly in line with our initial assumptions for a net revenue impact in 2020/21 of £10 million."
Boohoo, an online fashion retailer, published an independent review: "Ms Levitt's Independent Review has identified many failings in the Leicester supply chain and recommended improvements to boohoo's related corporate governance, compliance and monitoring processes. (...) We are confident that we can successfully embed all of the Independent Review's recommendations into our business model, without impacting lead times or financial expectations."
Wizz Air, a low-cost airline company, released an operational update: "In October, Wizz Air now expects to operate 50% of capacity compared to last year. Furthermore, should the level of restrictions remain at the current level, Wizz Air anticipates not to operate at a higher level of capacity during winter than its projection for October."
Shaftesbury, a real estate investment trust, issued a trading update for the period from April 1 to September 24: "41% of rents due for the six months to 30 September 2020 collected, 10% are expected to be subject to deferred collection arrangements, 23% are being waived and 26% remain outstanding at 11 September 2020. (...) EPRA vacancy at 31 August 2020: 9.7% of ERV (31.3.2020: 4.8%). (...) In view of current conditions and uncertain near-term outlook, the Board has decided not to declare a final dividend in respect of the year ending 30 September 2020, but intends to resume dividend payments as soon as it considers prudent."
From a daily point of view, the stock has broken below the lower end of a symmetrical triangle drawn since August. Moreover, the RSI is capped by a bearish trend line. Below the upper end of the triangle at 565p look for 400p and 340p in extension.
