I am sorry you feel that way and I certainly had no intention to mislead

sure , but at the moment everyone is taking whatever they are offered.
I guess what we are learning is how much cash there is out there looking for a home, and on that basis one would expect rates to stay low for some time yet.
Dont forget guys that there are some debt securities out there on the secondary market offering higher than 4.5
I find too many people are fixated on the primary market, I guess to avoid fees. but ultimately one needs to do the maths and see how little the fees actually impact on 5 year instrument.
I thought about this, The shares yield a bit more and its a PIE
On the bright side, research is never really wasted. May come in handy as it is possible further offers similar to this may become available in the near future.
Disclosure: I got some. Had wanted more, but as Peat mentioned, demand was high and scaling was probably always going to happen.
I have moved on from yesterday's disappointment...today will probably have enough problems of its own. It occurs to me there's a lot of people running scared at the moment for obvious reasons and are therefore attracted to an issue like this. I expect as we head towards the election and with ongoing ructions in the markets caused by heightened geopolitical tensions there could be some very compelling equity opportunities in the market this month.

Allegedly, bids for the $125 million exceeded $300 million. Wonder what the scaling is on the retail offer
OTL, it was about a third from my experience.
It will now be interesting to see if there is any scaling on the priority offer which allowed shareholders to apply for these notes on a priority basis
these are in the money, been one of my
better decisions
