I reckon some people on here would still be cynical if a CEO sold some shares after 10 years at the helm because they needed the money for a relatives late stage experimental cancer treatment. Acknowledge the optics are not great but I think there's a least a decent chance the reason given is genuine what with Australia's crippling top tax rate of 47% and capital gains taxes as well !
To support that, there's also an argument that goes, the explanation that's been given must be genuine as they would know this would cause such a massive backlash, if any inkling of info that influenced the SP negatively was to come to light in the foreseeable future.
sentiment must be bad , the last few times is has bounced harder from open in aus ... must be really pissed with that share sale
Maybe she has felt so bad this morning after her daily dose of Sharetrader.co.nz, she bought them all back at 5% cheaper...……??
