Here’s one fundie who didn’t take the AVOID recommendation
Done quite well after waiting and waiting and then pouncing
http://www.sharechat.co.nz/article/1...paying-offhtml
Headline a bit misleading ...they haven’t taken a 3% stake in FBU ...just 3% of the Fund invested in FBU

its a matter of trust ultimately, and sure WWB and some of the others may be good core businesses, but imagine what others might have done with them, or even say how they might react when a strong competitor asserts itself.
and if giving your money back is all they can think of to do then it shows they're not even backing themselves.
For clarity, nothing I say is advice....

Just discovered another FB pricing cockup today - fortunately for them they don't hold the contract at that price, however, there are a lot of other people out of pocket based on their estimation of the project costing.
I can see their kitset housing solution to all their woes being fraught with issues as they set up, iron out teething issues, then discover net immigration is now net migration.

Looks like Fletcherisation is becoming contageous. The apartment block Rymans started building in Johnsonville in January was to have been ready for occupation this November. After 6 months work the occupation date has been pushed out by 6 months to May next year.

Heard a pretty ugly rumour regarding the Greymouth hospital build yesterday. The hospitals already 6-18 months behind schedule depending on who you listen to. I sure hope the story proves unfounded.

fascinating how seriously badly the building and construction sector is performing. Mainzeal, Hawkins, Orange H, Fletchers .... (and suppliers of building product (STU, MPG)
now Ebert goes under owing tens of millions
so many failures, so much negativity. "deep problems creating a perfect storm" was one quote I saw this morning, "razor thin margins" another. Might these collapses be the catalyst for more realistic (and risk-averse) pricing? And there is a lot of work out there (and in east Coast Australia). Could the last players standing be about to start enjoying a coming period with stronger tailwinds (even if they have a poor track record of managing and looking after capital)?
just wondering

that's what the "cyclical" in "cyclical industries" means. Buy the right company at the bottom of the cycle and you will be nicely rewarded.
Only two questions I would ask:
1) are we there (at the bottom) yet?
2) Is FBU the right company?
