DON'T PANIC...!!!

No evidence whatsoever that Covid survives/travels in un-chilled milk powder. Highly likely caused at the icecream production plant in Tianjin from an infected worker.
You've got to work pretty hard to make this seem a problem for NZ milk powder.
Click-bait.
I have already stated in my post its a no big deal from fact's point of view ...but its given big negative publicity to NZ dairy ...which is called sentiment souring ...which had been bringing big bucks to ATM ...reputation of NZ products !!
All over Chinese media ...its mentioned NZ milk powder was being used in the ice cream which tested positive for Covid ...what U think young parents will think ?
What they saying on Hotcopper about this covid in icecream made with NZ milk powder
You hit it on the nail 'sentiment souring' happens constantly with a2 fake news, Teeger special target prices, adding brokers high frequency algorithms a really honest industry. Repeated patterns with all this box moving client/broker on broker advice. ATM could with its huge cash reserve announce a Buy-back to rid us of these Hire-pool traders.
Not much and pretty much the same as they are saying here...... if anything this news strengthens the 'pure nz clean' message as the 'contamination' 99.9% likely to have occurred at the Chinese end. Underlines the weaknesses in the Chinese food supply chain, not to mention their increasing use of alleged slave/low wage labour both in agriculture and factories.
Mind you the SP may still take a hit with nervous weak hands. I would only be buying on either good news or a confirmed uptrend. (Be good to get the uncertainty of the US inauguration/civil unrest out of the way too.)
Why everyone hates Chinese yet everyone wish they bought ATM products.
Ironic really....lol....
Chinese households apparently stocking up on things like IF as they get worried about more lockdowns
Could give A2 a boost
Now that Chinese consumers know that any product produced in China, even when using imported ingredients could become contaminated with Covid, they could very likely move towards purchasing even more NZ product.
I don’t know why people here think others don’t like the Chinese, I for one have plenty of Chinese colleagues and friends, as a culture they are far more intelligent than their western counterparts, and if I can put the pieces of the puzzle together, they sure as hell can.
They know that NZ has eliminated Covid in the community, they know that China hasn’t. Although the scaremongers will be pointing the finger at NZ milk powder as the source of the Covid contamination, Chinese consumers will be able to work out for themselves what product they can trust.
Perhaps not only another pantry stocking event on the horizon, but also another move away from Chinese manufactured or packaged product, to NZ manufactured and packaged.
