This company's management is a problem. I have been in construction for nearly 50 years. As I observe their various work sites the lack of expertise and construction skills are obvious. They have appointed a person with no experience in the discipline as head of the division. She has a BA like the previous CEO and he also had a BA and has left with another sort of BA. It like an engineer being sent to critic the performance of a surgeon. Also who on the board has any expertise in construction? The sinecure they once had as the dominant construction company is also now gone. Vinci the largest construction company in the world, and who own HEB, March Construction and Electrix, is the JV partner with Downers on the Auckland rail system. Until managers with the required experience are appointed I would not be too optimistic. The likes of Downers, Fulton Hogan etc all have experience construction men running their operations. Invest in Fletchers if you wish but be aware of the risks posed by such.

FBU a pretty popular pick in the competition this
Many, including some illuminiaries, obviously think could be a decent turnaround story
Don’t forget the share price was once close to $14 so even if it only goes to $10 it’s only going to where it’s been before.

Agree there is upside potential, however IMO there is still considerable downside risk if there is any more bad news.
Given the downside risk I won't be touching until there is some good turnaround news/evidence and a more established rising trend. It will be an interesting one to watch in 2018, but I'll remain on the sidelines. GLH.

Is there an element of "everything else has run too hard " in picking FBU to perform strongly this year? I'm another who'll wait to see some evidence first.

Agree 100%.
