At least RBNZ have said it’s all OK - no surprises there
A team that simply threw more money at dairy farmers and hoped the dairy crisis would end. They got lucky, simple as that.
We saw an almost complete lack of support by institutions for the incumbent retirement players right before OCA was listed around this time last year and a woeful lack of support for some months afterwards as the huge capital raise sucked the wind out of the sector's sails quite a while. I think the same thing is playing out and a listing of UDC is highly likely this quarter and I think this is a very good quarter not to be a HBL shareholder and there's no dividends due this quarter to ease any potential unrealised or realised capital loss pain. I agree that the EPS growth of HBL is also somewhat underwhelming now compared to recent historical past. They've been crying wolf on making a takeover or acqusition for over two and a half years now and its come to nothing.
It maybe that once HBL sp hits a certain level,they may become a target themselves.
As far as UDC goes,they are only looking good because of the ANZ net.Once that goes i wouldn't touch them unless another Aussie bank supported them.Just my opinion.No expert.
