Well guys, TTK shares are currently crossing at 80cps....what does this mean?

Perhaps it means that Bobdn did well selling 25% of his shares at $1 and now probably wishes he has sold more?

[Bobdn]

Only time will tell

[Major von Tempsky]

Gosh, that's a bit sad for you fellas, current quote for TTK last sale 80cps, buyers 78cps, sellers 80cps. You oughtta be grateful to Spark for supporting the market :-)

[Bobdn]

Be happy about Spark's rise in price and juicy dividends. No need to troll us.

[Major von Tempsky]

Now crossing at 77 cents per share! Must mean punters no longer believe Spark's bid is going ahead so there's no underpinning to the market...

[bung5]

Hah he probably wishes he had held on until it hit $1 ..but useless second guessing these things. it is what it is and we all make the best decision we can and only much later do we actually get any clarity.

Yeah for sure. You can still sell today higher so not too good of a call :P .
Although I did put it in to air.nz which has payed a nice fat div and up 15% so all is well.

I'd remind everyone of two takeover offers one for KMD and the other ATM, look how promising they have ended up by refusing the deal. Their share price shot up on takeover offer, sank back down after offer was gone and now the companies are flourishing after. Spark and Vodafone won't be wanting to take TTK's assets if they aren't going to be more useful in the future.

KMD share price currently at $1.93, only 13c above the Rod Duke offer, hardly what you would call flourishing for a share that went over $4 just a few years ago.

You have to remember at its low it got to $1.30 and the reason its up now to $1.93 is that its proven to have value, not only have shareholders recieved dividends in that time, but a decent capital gains has been made and the way I see it KMD will continue to rise this year as their profits improve. The return shareholders have made by holding from the bottom to now is substantially higher than average market returns. From the takeover price its not a ton more, but 13 cents is capital gains plus 11 cents in dividends in past 12 months, thats 24 cents or 12.4% return, which on market averages is great itself.

But it could have heaps more taking Rods money .....that $1.80 he offered now worth $2.50 at least
