    I don't wish to be an apologist for Kathmandu as I no longer have an interest in them, nor do I wish to. However, I am amused at the trash that is being written in this thread. It matters not whether the previous owner was an individual, a private equity fund, or whatever. They will be selling to maximise their return. The market determines the price according to the demand for the shares, presumably after the buyers have done due diligence.

    In the case of Kathmandu there is no evidence whatsoever that their float will turn out to be a dud for those who elected to get on board. Quite the contrary. It has been a hugely successful business to date with a marvellous track record, a record that would easily eclipse most of the better companies on the NZX boards.

    It is correct that in the recent IPO it was mainly the Aussies that came to the party. But what does that tell us ? Since when have the Aussies been inferior in their judgement than New Zealanders ?

    Let us wait to see if this outfit meets its prospectus projections. Then cast judgements, but any conjecture at this point is plain drivel.

    I think JC will have the last laugh on KMD.

    Just watch this space.

    Having got ourselves into a debt-induced economic crisis, the only permanent way out is to reduce the debt – either directly by abolishing large slabs of it, or indirectly by inflating it away.

    Er? What last laugh?

    The private equity interests who bought from her are the ones laughing like hyped-up-on-P gang members all the way to the bank. Bought from her for $1 in 2006 and sold for $4 equivalent - a profit of over 300%!!!!

    She must be bitter as twisted Invercargill lemon that they stole the company from her.

    It's the Australians who bought the hype who are wearing the losses from the IPO. Bloody good job too! Great IPO for NZers who sold to the Ozzies.

    Sp now at $1.55. With flat retail sales as indicated by WHS and MYR will be testing times for alternative clothing stores. Trading at a high PE, one wonders if KMD can meet forecast. We saw what happen to PPL sp when they miss forecast.

    Those that have been saying.... Great IPO... Yeah right mate.
