Took my profit from the price run-up to ex Div date - more, almost double what the div was worth (@ 6c for the quarter div). May buy back in prior to the next quarter and enjoy the run-up again...
In her partial defence some car dealers are pretty slippery characters and could talk the legs off a chair. Use of phrases like "total peace of mind" when it comes to selling mechanical warranties is par for the course, regardless of the fact that many policies have pretty modest claim limits such that a total engine or gearbox failure might not be fully covered. Sadly far too many people are focused on the vehicle and the weekly payments and a lack of financial literacy means many other details don't get proper consideration. https://www.autosure.co.nz/ Even the homepage says a mechanical breakdown insurance helps safeguard your credit rating...hmmm.
I was talking with Jeff Greenslade at a HGH presentation.

Car subscription progress has naturally been impeded by Covid-19. We are working directly with
Collaborate Corp (CL8.ASX) in Australia to get the subscription platform set up for NZ. We have now
made the decision to brand the business under the Turners brand umbrella due to the high trust and
strong brand value and recognition attached to the Turners brand. We expect Turners Car Subscription
to be up and running in Q2.
