Retail results of most interest in UK business week ahead
UK investors look set for a calmer few days next week as only a handful of companies are due to unveil results or trading updates. However, with statements due from the likes of Mothercare and Ottakar’s there could still be plenty of interest for edgy shareholders in the retail sector.
Wolverhampton & Dudley Breweries has impressed investors by growing like-for-like sales by 3% or more at its tenanted and managed inns in the 15 weeks to January 15, despite the distraction of acquiring rival Burtonwood and integrating Wizard Inns.
