    Agreed. Other insto's been reducing lately too. Nothing in this result that would make them want to increase again. Most likely result is there's a massive undisclosed overhang of stock ready to come onto the market by disenfranchised institutional holders at the slightest hint of a SP increase. Very hard to see how the stock gains momentum upwards from here and the dividend yield case really isn't all that compelling either.
    Children can be a very rewarding experience and running a day care by a caring family for others in the community can be an enriching experience all round for the kids / parents / caregivers but how much money is really in it and does this suit the corporate model ?...

    Not the result I was expecting.
    Sold 75% of our holding.
    Has brought the average cost of the balance to 68 cents per share.

    Key advantage of being a retail investor over an institution is liquidity. I wouldn't mind having a few bob, (I like backing things that are 100% certain), there would be several institutions that would love to be able to extricate themselves from a tight spot as quickly as you have but the liquidity simply isn't there. If you'd sold a few more your remaining holding could have been free, (I would have if I were you)

    Piece of cake.

    Buy 60,000 at 95 cents.$57,000
    Sell 45,000 at $1,04 .$46,800.
    Left with 15,000 costing $10,200 or 68 cents each.[plus received December's divie]
    Next up if need be,sell 10,000 at $1.02, and hold onto 5,000 "free ones."
