HGH - Heartland Group Holdings

[iceman]

An important milestone in Heartland BANK'S "steady as she goes" trudge. It will be interesting to see what/if this achievement has any short-medium term effect on the business. Great news.

Lower borrowing costs in the short term and a takeover target in the medium term. Good work Heartland.

Kiwibank has shown that a niche focus bank can work.

And with feelings running high against the Aussie controlled (and manipulated) trading banks price gouging New Zealanders, there is certainly good scope to leverage off its NZ roots.

It also takes it out of the realm of being just a finance company.

Still seems to be plenty of sellers looking to exit.

Silly people must have lots of Christmas prezzies to pay for :-)

Usual story - there are those who have bought in anticipation of a spike on the banking announcement.

Clearing their trades before the end of year.

Good on them if they make money.

They showed more courage than many who bailed out below 52 cents!

Plenty of upside left though for those who are buying in now.

HNZ is a safer bet now than it has ever been.

The chief finance man will now be happy .... for a few reasons .... but more so he will now be able to tell the advertsing guys its all on .... spend that money we have set aside to tell the world we are a BANK now

If they do it well the advertising might even have a flow on impact on the share price

Right on.!!! Bring it on!!!!.All of us here are " well positioned" for the share price trajectory.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And a very well done to directors and management at HNZ for achieving their objective.Something to be very proud of.For all of us who invest in shares it is pleasing to see a NZ listed bank.
To all sharetraders who hung on and brought more,well done,the fun is about to get seriously good.
Nice Xmas present to us all.

Good to know that Mrs. K1W1GOLD has now a safe kitchen sink..

Think it maybe a while before any decent upward movent is seen .. Every one has already positioned themselves..

Seems a bit mad people selling at the current price, their EPS indicates they are at least worth their NTA value, but likely a lot more now due to the potential growth upside. But hey, I will buy a few more just to get a round number in my portfolio if people are selling

Seems like a well run company now coming out of a period of turmoil. The bank registration just confirms this.

When people sell and there seems no real reason they cal it "profit taking"
