    Sir Selwyn buys another easy 500.000 shares - wish I had that sort of money.

    Definitely looks like he puts his money where his mouth is ... A total of 15.7 million shares is probably not even for him petty cash ...

    American investment management firm First Pacific Advisors has lodged a Substantial Shareholder's notice, with an interest in a shade over 5% of SKL's shares. A vote of confidence in SKL but nothing more, I hope!

    well, looks like you did beat me to it:

    US Fund (FPA - First Pacific Advisors : http://www.fpafunds.com/about-us) buying into SKL and issued SSH notice.

    https://www.nzx.com/files/attachments/249817.pdf

    They do own now nearly 10 m shares (spread about several of their investment funds). Looks like some US investors still see value outside of the US.

    Does not look like they are collecting foreign companies ... so I assume its just an investment ...

    Good to see a woman (Liz Coutts) taking the Chair on the (still overly male-dominated) SKL board. Interim result out 16 Feb. Like the way they present their reports on their website. Too often online reports are irksome to read.

    Male/ female, who cares. It's about whose best for the job.

    I care. And that is because I agree with you that "it's about whose best for the job." and IMO "best for the job" includes consideration of gender and cultural balance in governance.

    To get the best you have to be able to select from the best. If the result of your selection is constantly turning up a clearly non-representative sample, then there is some bias somewhere that is excluding potential candidates. That should be understood and addressed, otherwise you cannot hope to get the best.

    SKL share price approaching $1.60

    hasn't closed at this level since August 2014

    The market must have gone nuts

    Has there been an upgrade on their 'consistent earnings' guidance of a few months

    That said F17 earnings would be about the same (maybe up 7% Selwyn said) as last year

    Must be having a record year

    Cool In it for the dividend, dreaming of a takeover bid

    4 cents ahead of analyst consensus now and given that no one is picking great growth in earnings for the next few years you have to be in it for the dividend and dream of a takeover bid.
