Fair enough if it's a level playing field.
Not when it comes to placements!

$4.92 bid, $4.94 offer.
Looks like could be a good one!
I made a sneaky 5% on this today - quick fire buy/sell action on the back of the big players.
Record date is on Friday for a 12cps dividend - I wonder what will happen to the SP after that...
The new IPV6 internet protocol, which is slowly being taken up, makes multicast video streaming easier to set up. The old IPV4 protocol was designed as a point-to-point protocol. It was possible to do multicast in IPV4 but was an inpractical kludge.
With IPV6 and fiber-optic media over the internet becomes more doable. What is holding it back is agreed data compression and video standards. The new HTML5 internet standard may be a way forward, but the jury is still out whether this will be successful.
The point I am trying to make is disintermediation is possibible, where punter can bypass agregators such as Sky and deal direct with the content originator.
Just imagine you are a fan of blood sports and wish to watch a local soccer derby between Locomotiv Moscow and Spartak. No need to worry if it is broadcast on Sky. Just flick a few Roubles to the content originator for the game and join their video feed.
Boop boop de do

Same happened with motor racing.Sky will have a bottom line as will NRL.Taking it to the wire.!!! Both have a lot to lose.Big dollars at stake.Either way both will survive.
I watched on free to air in Aussie last time I was there, and switched it off as there were too many ads.NRL will know that.
The market doesn't seem worried that Rupert's left the register. SKT up 13c in a generally strong market, no doubt Dow - influenced!
Hi
Can anyone clarify the ex div date for SKT
NZX site says 6 March and the shares dropped 12c at open this morning, but all of the company's own releases say 8th March
So if I bought today would I get the dividend or not?

Thanks for info, I need to watch that in future. The company releases to market said record date 8th March
"Record date" means as recorded on the share register. With settlement 3 days after a trade (T+3) it would have been necessary to have bought by Tuesday the 5th for the transfer to be "recorded" by Friday 8th March.
Thanks
That makes sense.
