Certainly is.

Might buy some then. Thanks for that.

$1.46 Highest price ever? Have I said that I really like this company? A few hiccups not withstanding it seems to have a nice steady history supported by fantastic lease terms and a good dividend. Long may it continue not to shock.

8 cps forecast for 2015 with all tax paid i.e. PIE fund = 5.48% after tax = 8.18% gross for people on a 33% tax rate which isn't too shabby considering the very low risk involved.

Closing at $1.48. Is there something going on or just a lead up to the last dividend?

[Beagle]

GMT also going ballistic. Scramble for safe yield incl final divvy IMO.

Why the 5c rise today? Albeit on only 204k shares

They recently settled on the Hibiscus Coast Health Centre. But that would only have brought in $4 or $5 million. Used to reduce debt for the moment as I understand it. I can't really see this making much difference though. I don't really like sudden spikes in this stock. I would rather it just slowly appreciated over time and kept paying a reasonable dividend.

Interest rates staying low for as far as the eye can see. The scramble for nice safe yield continues...

$1.70 up and not a seller on the horizon. At least until $1.80 anyway. Up 67% over the 9 years I have held the stock plus more than my initial investment paid out in cash dividends until I took up the DRP.

This is the kind of performance that makes me appreciate the quiet achievers in the market. Plenty of other noise and hype out there but this just keeps quietly ticking over.

Weird trade for 1800 shares at $2 today. Someone's mouse finger slipped? Price was up 25 cents briefly. Quite exciting really.
