Ocado Group PLC (LON:OCDO) published its half-yearly results today. As a long-standing bear on the stock, I made a profitable short bet on the stock earlier this year and continue to expect the firm’s market cap to decline, albeit more slowly.

Today’s results did nothing to change my view, and confirm in my mind that its valuation remains completely bonkers.

In a new article for the Motley Fool, I explain why, in more detail, and highlight several figures from today’s results that suggest Ocado’s core problems — scale, distribution costs and profitabilty — remain dominant.
