What is Tesco plc?
Tesco plc operates as a food retailer, also offering banking and insurance services. It was established by Jack Cohen in 1919 and headquartered in Welwyn Garden City, UK. The company is one of the biggest food retailers in Great Britain, with domestic and international segments. Aside from Tesco UK and ROI (Republic of Ireland) and Tesco Bank, the company has developed a network of stores Eastern Europe and Asia, operating businesses under its brand in countries such as Hungary, Poland, Malaysia and Slovakia.
Tesco sells groceries and other products in a variety of stores ranging in size from the smaller high street Tesco Express to the mid-sized Metro, traditional Superstore and out-of-town Tesco Extra hypermarket. Tesco also has an online store and owns One Stop, a chain of convenience stores that operate largely independently of Tesco and are typically smaller than Express.
Tesco Bank was opened in 1997 with the aim of helping Tesco shoppers to manage their finances. The bank offers a variety of financial products and services, including current accounts, credit cards, personal loans and savings products, as well as insurance products and services.
Performance of the Tesco stock price
Tesco became a publicly traded company in 1947, listed as Tesco Stores (Holdings) Limited. Its stock is quoted on the London Stock Exchange. Over the past couple of years, Tesco stock price movements have offered the potential to make profits by opening long and short positions. The price chart shows that peaks and bottoms are common in the fluctuation of the Tesco share price, especially when higher time frames are considered. The switch between the peaks and bottoms is often made by a movement in a clearly defined upward or downward trend.
The manner in which the Tesco share price moves is particularly suited to trend-trading strategies or strategies based on price retracements. Before a significant price reversal occurs, the Tesco share price tends to go through multiple price retracements.
The shares may also be attractive because their price can fluctuate up to 5 per cent within a single day and more than 5 per cent in a given week. Thus a suitable strategy may potentially bring a regular profit by switching between long and short positions.
How to invest in Tesco stock?
Before investing in Tesco stock, select an instrument which will bring the most benefits. Tokenised assets offered by Dzengi.com may be advantageous for many traders. Trading tokenised shares is easier to understand when compared with other instruments, such as futures or options, which may come with complex contracts. The process for trading tokenised stock is quite straightforward: you open a long position when you predict an increase in the Tesco stock price; you sell the tokenised assets if you expect the price to decrease.
The tokenised assets available on the Dzengi.com trading platform are developed using advanced digital and blockchain technology, enabling the creation of smart contracts and efficient storage of transactional records. Blockchain technology excludes the need for direct ownership of assets such as shares or derivatives: the tokenised assets replicate the price movements of the underlying asset, making opening and closing a position much easier and faster and reducing unnecessary transaction costs from third parties. Blockchain technology also offers a higher level of security, as the encrypted data is protected from possible manipulation.
Traders can invest in Tesco stock using leverage provided by Dzengi.com for its tokenised shares. This means that the size of trading positions is no longer limited by the capital available for trading. Traders have the opportunity to purchase tokenised Tesco shares with a margin of 5 per cent, which means they need only have enough capital to cover a portion of the position value.
For example, if you want to open a position of £10,000 you will need to have only 5 per cent or £500 of available capital. The profits made are calculated on the position value of £10,000, which means that traders will multiply their profits. Even though you have invested only £500, a 2 per cent movement of the Tesco share price in your favour will bring you £200 of profit.
By comparison, even if the Tesco share price makes a sizeable gain of 10 per cent, a position opened solely with available capital of £500 (without the power of leverage) will bring only £50.
Tokenised assets are also appealing to traders with crypto holdings because they can trade tokenised Tesco shares directly using their cryptocurrencies. Dzengi.com enables traders to use Bitcoin or Ether to purchase tokenised assets without the need to exchange them for fiat money. The tokenised assets platform eliminates potential conversion costs and the time it takes to convert the cryptocurrencies.
