Yeah, AIA's SP already showing signs of recovery recently. We'll now see how well the vaccine pass really works. Can't believe that the library don't even bother checking my photo ID! It'd be so easy for someone to just borrow a mate's pass.

The vax pass has never been intended to be policed for sure - as has been shown overseas. It really only ever intended as a carrot and stick to get people vaccinated.

Surely it going to end up the govt holding more shares and the retail investor diluted...no DIV's for ages..not a BUY.

This is the 'warning shot' across the bows of shareholders. They won't be able to say they didn't see it coming when all hell breaks loose.

Mass exodus - 12,000 people flying out of Auckland tomorrow. Wonder how many will bother coming back with prison walls due to go back up on 17 January ?

Anyone still invested in this pup is begging for trouble and will surely get it as sure as night follows day.

Surely they can't really close the borders again come 17th January. That would be political suicide, and create a lot of civil unrest within the country. If they open it up for a couple of weeks then the virus would've already had a chance to spread through the country further so there would be no point locking the borders down again. If they do, with the timing of first quarter AIR CR and hitting the threshold of maxed loan available. Surely the debt and everything else will be very bad news for shareholders clinging on still. Yet AIR SP still holds in the 1.5 range, quite astonishing really, or there are a LOT of new 'investors' who really have no idea of what's taking place on company fundamentals and what the Cap Raise signifies, means and will be used for (ie to pay debt).

Agreed...border going back up would be complete madness in terms of expending political capital...but so is a lot of the other things the Govt are doing, eg 3 Waters. Its clear there is a whole new generation of investors with no idea of the financial fundamental's. Most popular company on Sharsies...

Yes indeed BaaBaa ….a huge ‘warning shot’

Maybe current non-govt shareholders might end up with 15% of the company soon.

Can always buy back when govt sells down in 2028

We talk about retail shareholder damage, but what about these big guys? Do they not see what we think we see, or are they locked in through their funds or what? Surely if they do see calamity, they'd be doing something about reducing their exposure?
