Did you notice that on the relevant table the FY18 EBT is higher than the FY18 EBIT (negative interest?) and that EBIT & NPAT for FY18 is less than FY17 (*)? They might have mixed up some numbers, somewhat invalidating your positive assumptions for 2018.

What I want to point out - you are very welcome to be optimistic and put your money where your mouth is ... but it might be a good idea to review whether this optimism is based on solid data or just finger trouble.

(*) disclosure ... a friendly fellow poster who wants to be unnamed pointed me to this issue before I saw your post ;

Thanks for pointing out that apparent discrepancy BP. I remain comfortable with my assumption about yield stabilizing and am happy to hold a modest position as part of a well diversified portfolio.

Based on my own analysis, I'm happy to hold an outrageous portion as part of an unbalanced portfolio.

LOL good luck with that approach mate and everyone knows we're mates so you know I mean that...but please be aware that your approach isn't recommended. See the section about diversification.

Thanks for that Roger, although with 44% of my portfolio total in Air I do have some diversity. I'm not a believer in over diversification these days for various reasons.
