I guess putting this into the "good news" thread is clear evidence that you are a shorter :p;
And yes - the overreaction of our authorities is quite concerning. It won't be a flu like virus taking us down, but the idiocy of our authorities who seem to follow more the hype created by a wild internet mob of fear mongers rather than common sense.
Not as much carnage on the NZX today as some thought there would be
Been some worse days than this recently
While a suspension is abnormal, the industry regularly goes through periods of pushing and cutting right back inline with prices. As long as it is only a short term blip (which is what they seem to be suggesting with Chinese holidays etc) then it should have little overall effect on the GDP. Different story for those in the local industry who won't be getting pay packets after Christmas splurging though.
your right about the ebbs and flows of forestry in a normal cycle , the big unknown though is how long or how big the virus gets. if the worst happens it will affect forestry along with every other exporter from nz in reduced demand , port issues , labour at ports to unload , unused inventory buildup driving prices down etc.
i see other exporters reviewing shipments already due to chinese port issues
As you say, in a worst case scenario the would will come crashing to standstill. However, I survived Y2K, the end of the Mayan calendar, and numerous other world ending events so every day is a bonus - live on the edge and keep investing I say.
read this for update on the forestry very bad situation

" there does not appear to have been a large drop in Chinese demand.”
I thought that gdp growth has been at about 2.5% pa since 2015

Asset prices though have surged perhaps owing to interest rate movement.
should have said gdp % growth has been falling since 2015

and your right about its only the interest rate effect to support stock prices at these levels
