    In the meantime, hopefully your average holding cost or loss situation has improved.
    One thought - Merger between Viridian & MPG? Imagine the costs which can be stripped out!

    Just an FYI Bain hold debt and equity interest in Hirepool as well. It is mentioned in the below document (see the letter at the end of the link)

    Maybe making a move into building products in NZ...

    As per the Herald reporting today that Craigs say get out and cut your losses with OHE - it would appear Devon and NZSF know how to do the same
    For clarity, nothing I say is advice....

    Crossing of 3m shares at 55c.

    Presumably to Bain Capital - wonder how Her Majesty and the reef fishes are feeling now, getting spooked by all the negative comments to get out at 37c?

    If the 3m is not to Bain Capital, then it's game on!

    Congrats to punters who got in near the low. 55/37 is nearly 50% ! I guess the old saying is true, every dog has its day.
