SPK- Spark NZ (TELCO)

I wonder if Spark's streaming/content initiatives will be successful.

Disney is doing it tough at the moment and it knows just a tad more about content than Spark (just a tad):

broken down thru 4.05 support

Not surprised ... I said back in September that I thought there's a high probability of this falling back to $3.50.

I sold half my holding just prior to Christmas, watching closely before dumping the rest though.

sky out pricing themselves in the market again $31 sky sports vrs $20 spark sports . spark only need to have a more compelling offer and the wave of people leaving sky to spark will turn into a stampede

spark have the football. that's all I care about. I am really looking forward to signing up & I think $20 is a very fair price for the average sports consumer - can SPK make it profitable though? first few years might be all about grabbing market share and getting the platform right. might be a long payback period for shareholders.
