This is one stock where savvy traders could make far more than buy and hold types regardless of divvies and or tax. Disc-Have none, overpriced IMO

Just went back over my records and I started trading SPK back in December 2016. SP was $3.40.
Since then I have 15 Buys & 14 Sells.
Over the almost 2 years my after tax return has averaged out at 38% (19% per year)
Buy & hold would have been just under 34% (17% per year)
So is 2%PA worth it? I've enjoyed the challenge & this has given me a bit extra cash to spend at non-dividend times as well.

Thank you for your full reply.
I have recently retired.
I thought of openning a trading a/c for a bit of amusement,however it looked as though it would be a paper war keeping track of things,so I have remained an investor.

I am very happy with www.sharesight.co.nz that manages all of my portfolio, tracking, reporting etc. It covers watchlists, investments, trades, dividends, splits, autoload buys & sells, cash balance .. you name it, it's a very useful system and is constantly getting better. And NO paper. Easy to use as well.

I'm old school and have never used a computer system for my business as a sole trader during the last 28yrs, I run a simple income and expenditure bookkeeping system, same for shares, I still get all my contract notes by mail and reconcile things every week.

Speech for AGM certainly keen on 5G implementation with a few pushes at government to get through allocation of spectrum on time.
But I agree that its huge for Spark, and something they can use to differentiate themselves from smaller competitors.
As a wireless technology it will reduce their dependence on Chorus and its fixed pricing.
I get enough freebies as a full Spark customer that I dont look around for cheaper pricing. Netflix, Fanpass (not free but cheaper) and Im watching a few things on Lightbox too.
I think Spark can prosper as a modern day telco, though profit growth wont come easy, so on an earnings basis it remains expensive.
For clarity, nothing I say is advice....

Bit of confusion at AGM about what AI stands for
“ At the top of every bubble, everyone is convinced it's not yet a bubble.”
