    If inflation becomes a problem (which appears to be main reason for recent global selloff), then we know that well managed cyclical stocks with proven track records are actually the best inflation hedge.

    STU is still a turnaround story so will need a few more runs on the board before investors and the market gain more confidence in the stock.

    2. The 60% - 80% of NPAT will be made up with the final dividend. Directors are just being cautious and that's fair enough in the pandemic environment we are still in.

    Thanks Balance,
    I think I'll continue to accumulate and hope the price stays down while I do.

    I thought it was a pretty good result. The second half is always far better than the first half. Currently there is a real supply issue ,so prices are rising with a lot more margin and less discounting. Couple with a big drop in costs I’m expecting a very good year end result.

    Yeah likewise. Absolutely unreal they're not buying back shares hand over fist. Just goes to show they still haven't got a handle on capital allocation. Criminal paying a dividend when stock so far under intrinsic.

    I wonder whether this will see a progressive shift to the use of steel rather than wood for this this structural building work. This would obviously help steel suppliers like STU.

    whats to say that the same issues wont also come to the fore with steel and other supplies / services ?

    are there enough chippies & sparkies around to do what's needed ?

    Last time - with CHCH recovery they were importing them from afar to fill the Skills gaps ..

    Got an email from S&T today telling me how it is better than wood for houses and things and infinitely recyclable and excellent for the environment.

    Go do your bit for nature, the planet and my net worth by building with steel tubes.

    you missed mention of 'strong cages' - snow

    also whether to lock in a large stack of S&T or to keep the large feline guarding the stash in
    or busy on the outer edges, in case of other predators coming by ..
