Slide 5 explains quite a bit. Suspect we are in lull phase where volumes and market take breather to wait for new trees etc. to come on-line. Dumpers gotta dump.
Main uncertainty for me is impact and added value that CR should be bringing.
Jeez - never thought i'd see both Scales and Wynard at the top of the loser's board
This is a good result and the future looks as fine as fine as can be.
Includes a profit upgrade who could ask for anything more?
Best Wishes

What the hell....market is so violate. It happened to ATM and CVT too....
You will always have traders who bought in anticipation of good results and who will sell irrespective. Headlines and headline numbers mean a lot to them.
Then you have longer term investors waiting for results to reposition their shareholdings - be them up or down.
The days post results - that's when it gets interesting. Analysts talk to management (and are allowed to discuss outlook etc) to 'fine-tune' their forecasts. The institutions identify which analyst is the best and/or closest to the company and rely on their forecasts to then buy or sell.

Precisely. And my sources tell me a number of institutional/fund managing types are sweating of late due to poor decisions made 6 months ago.
