Yep should have added 'yet'

If it does get in they might learn something they can put into practice over here when the virus returns here

Ryman is a very strong business to date despite the hit of covid-19 ,it sailed throught the worst, the Sp today is a bargain for investors.

Just ramping - or otherwise how do you measure that?

Please check their financial:
The full-year dividend was lifted to 24.2 cents per share, inline with growth in underlying profit and our long-standing policy of paying out 50 percent of underlying profits to shareholders.

Amazing. Dividend 24.2 cents on a $12.71 share ... this is a dividend yield of 1.9%. Hardly stellar. If that's a bargain for you, than I don't want to know what you call overpriced :

Sure - you can always hope for further SP rises to compensate for the meagre dividend, but the dearer the share the unlikelier is further rising potential and the harder any fall due to e.g. dropping property prices or Covid-19 escaping or both.

It is all about risks and rewards ... I see with Ryman in the current situation the likelihood for risks materialising higher than the likelihood of further rewards. Obviously - they are a great company, but as many other great companies they look these days a bit dear to me ...

On the other hand .... given that every Tom, Dick and Harry together with the taxi drivers and the shoeshine boy collective seem to drive the game these days ... what possibly could go wrong? I guess given that the market values even bankrupt companies like Hertz at several hundred million (USD that is) market cap - than a solid company like Ryman clearly must be worth much more than the 6.3 billion (NZD) market cap punters are happy to pay today..

So - a bargain it is ... I am just too scared to buy ;

Not a big deal of 100mil for Ryman , you sell and I will buy.
Ryman’s corporate affairs manager David King told Stuff work had stopped in affected areas but the company was “working through the issues with the council collaboratively, and we will resolve any issues”.
“We are still targeting to be able to move our first residents in around September 21. The council is aware of these dates, and we are working with them,” he said.
“The village represents a $100 million investment in Hawke’s Bay and will provide critical healthcare infrastructure for the area, as well as an economic boost at a difficult time. We turned our villages into safe havens during Covid-19 emergency, and they are built to provide safety and security for residents which we think will be even more important in the years ahead,” King said.
