    I didn't say $69,000 was the whole margin call. Maybe the margin call was $569,000? I admit I could be way off track here. But why would Byrnes sell $69,000 worth of shares if he didn't have to? I mean building a deck in Auckland with the current shortage of builders? Byrnes would have had to book a couple of years ahead to get builders to come. Plenty of time to save with that time lag.

    Maybe after being 'rattled' at the AGM, and seeing the latest Mainzeal /Shipley fallout in the news, Byrnes decided he needed some of his own director liability insurance cover in a hurry?

    Yes...given all that the sale really doesn’t make sense. Maybe he is just trying to wind us all up ?

    The possibilities are endless I guess ranging from gambling debts or hookers or a P habit to buying his aging mum a Summerset retirement unit.

    Probably nothing to see here re Byrnes share sale or as Percy says ‘funny peculiar’

    If both yahoo and the native is correct it must have been an off market sale ....volume that day was a lot less than 30,000 and the high of the day was less than the $2.33 he got.

    Doubt very much myself that any bank will lend against a non-NZX50 listed company like TRA on a margin call basis.

    A finance company may but there are few of those left!

    As to why he would sell 30,000 shares - it's not the number which matters so much as the obvious implication of a director selling into a falling share price and into a share buyback!

    He cannot be that naive that he cannot understand the implication and market perception of a director holding 3.4m shares selling shares into a share buyback and 'undervalued' situation (as stated by directors)!!!!!

    72k shares out of 160k odd traded on Friday were bought back, more buying interest from others developing as there is more depth on the buy side.
