    Bingo, and there you have it imo, the astute take profits in times of uncertainty and apply those yields in due course to new opportunities as they arise in the future. We investors might take a closer look at what motivates these macro movements in astute investors portfolios, it's like following the money versus swimming against the tide.

    Jmho, dyodd. Not a holder, patient watcher.

    I got sick of watching and jumped in today after missing out on Friday. Looks to have fairly good div. yield. Or is it good because of special div?

    They paid an ordinary final dividend of 8 cents and a special dividend of 6.4 cents per share (both fully imputed) on June 15.

    Nicely timed exit IMHO. I suspect Z are up against it with their Caltex acquisition. All and sundry seem to be quoting competition issues. If the Comcom has any real balls they'll block this as its patently obvious to any motorist we need more fuel competition not less. The cosy oligopoly the fuel companies enjoy with their current structure surely cannot be allowed to get any closer too what in many parts of the country would then amount to a duopoly. Surely common sense applies and this is blocked ? I reckon IFT comes out of this smelling of roses.

    Don't you just love investments that are relatively low risk and give you good returns? Maybe I'm too positive about IFT but in 2013 it was way too undervalued and presented a great medium to longterm opportunity.

    HY results (interim dividend has been increased to 5.25 cents per share)
