  • Investor Newsletter
    Investor newsletter March 2009 From the CEO We feel much happier having Christmas behind us than in front of us: the lack of guidance provided at the interims in November was a true reflection of how difficult we felt it was for us to gauge demand and the health of the consumer. As it turned out, the pattern of the first half of the year continued: we achieved good volume growth and took significant market share, but at the expense of margin. Customers are still out there, but you need to give them a good reason to part with their money, and we did this through a typical Carphone combination of exclusive product and outstanding value for money. The polarisation of the market between high-end “smartphones” and very cheap entry-level handsets has been marked over the last six months. The mobile internet is now really here, not just via USB dongles but also on handsets. This is being driven by WiFi, HSPA and rapidly improving user interfaces. We expect conditions to continue to be tough this year, but one of the bright spots will be the trickle down of these technologies into the middle market, giving that segment a much-needed shot in the arm. At the TalkTalk Group, we have finally been able to move on from fixing the problems of our launch and completing the AOL integration, to concentrate on product and service innovation. Our customers tell us that they only want to pay for what they use, so we have relaunched our proposition offering a range of “booster” services (offering higher speeds, more download capacity and other enhancements) around the core phone-and- broadband tariff.

    Project Number: DZT 0905 STOCK MARKET SIMULATION An Interactive Qualifying Project Report: Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By Brandon Rubadou _____________________________ Carl Anderson _____________________________ Daniel Metcalf _____________________________ Jacob Loitherstein _____________________________ Richard Wingert _____________________________ William Callaway _____________________________ Approved by Professor Dalin Tang, Project Advisor ___________________________________________ i Abstract Through the use of tools and resources available from the internet as well as text and media references, a team of six people conducted an eleven-week stock-market simulation to investigate the validity and success of different trading strategies in the stock market. In the project group members selected companies to follow and trade based on how the company projected earnings. This required extensive research into the companies’ history and recent movements. The group found that all of the methods tested were adequate in producing returns but one method that followed Livermore’s Principals of investing was far superior to all of the others. The experience gained throughout this project will allow the group to become more competent investors in the future. ii Table of Contents ABSTRACT .................................................................................................................................II TABLE OF CONTENTS

  • Reinventing Best Buy
    9-716-455 REV: MAY 4, 2018 JOHN R. WELLS GABRIEL ELLSWORTH Reinventing Best Buy In November 2012 we introduced our transformation strategy called Renew Blue. … A little more than four years later, we figured it is time to call Renew Blue officially over and enter the next phase of our journey.1 — Chairman and CEO Hubert Joly, March 1, 2017, earnings call On March 1, 2017, Best Buy Company, Inc., North America’s largest retailer of consumer electronics and appliances, announced a third year of comparable-store sales increases and a 20.8% increase in domestic comparable online sales.2 These results were in marked contrast to four years of declining comparable-store sales from 2010 through 2013.a The stock price rose 17% in March, and on April 20, 2017, it surpassed $50 for the first time since January 2008. (See Exhibit 1.) When CEO Hubert Joly took over in September 2012, Best Buy was losing share to Amazon.com, which was encouraging consumers to view products at Best Buy and other physical stores and then buy them for a lower price online, a practice known as “showrooming.”3 Undaunted, Joly had encouraged the practice, convinced that it presented an opportunity to sell to customers as long as Best Buy’s prices were competitive. Joly had committed the company to a multi-channel strategy in North America and exited struggling international operations. Operating margins had increased as a result, but growth was still proving elusive. (See Exhibit 2.) In early 2017, Joly announced that his “Renew Blue” turnaround effort was complete and that he was now intent on creating the New Blue.
