    Bit of a long-shot, but both announced on the same day..... lol

    I've raised my buy order. Quick, somebody sell to me, lol.

    One two many executives and directors out there (ably assisted by the great unwashed and fawning journos) get an inflated sense of their 'greatness'.

    I'm a hobbiest beekeeper. This seasons Honey flow came earlier than average and was much more condensed i.e it was very strong in Dec. The nectar flow in Auckland stopped early Jan. Normally it would be late Feb.

    Beekeeping is local, local beekeepers know the local flowering times and probalby would base a forecast on that. I wonder if in Feb Comvita did a centralised desktop exercise of hive honey weight to date and applied historic nectar gains not considering where in the nectar cycle they were at i.e what is left to flower.

    I suspect industry insiders not necesarilly comvita insiders have been selling comvita.

    I think Comvitas value is in honey marketing not honey production.

    Let's not fogret this stock was trading at $12 when, who was it, Winner69's bowling mates bought in?


    What's A2 Milk at now $10b?


    Seriously tho, Comvita is a great Kiwi company with a long history. The brands only is worth mega bucks.
    Like Feltex, Pumpkin Patch and CBL as brands are worth mega bucks?

    Brands are only worth something when money can be made.

    Accept that Comvita the company is an unmitigated disaster when it comes to being a business - lousy planning, no idea of how they are going, no real strategy and now, Comvita as a brand will lose a lot of its brand value with MPI's manuka standard imo.

    Sounds like they struggling to make Manuka honey in NZ , who knows if another poor season follows .Also pretty sure the same "properties " exist in honey from some of those trees in Aussie , so not really unique imo.

    It was that post from Filthy that did it for me. It really could be A2 Milk as it would make sense. A 1:1 all stock take over would be nice!
