Just like Beagle had pointed out earlier, if you're in for a long haul, you will do fine. But if you're looking for a quick turnaround, you will likely to be disappointed.
Disc. I bought SUM shares around NZT1300 today.

Looks like Ryman not too shabby afterall
I suspect it's not that people are holding just two shares, more likely that this is a result of balancing multiple different buy and sell quantities.
I am sure somebody here will know the finer points, but as an example, imagine that the next sell order in the queue is "A" selling 800 shares. "B" is looking to buy 798 shares, so the broker takes those 798 shares from "A" and sells them to "B". "A" now has just 2 shares left, and the next buy order in the queue is limmy. So you get the remaining 2 shares from "A" and then the process continues matching up people.
At least, that's how I imagine it works. And obviously the above is a very simple example; now extrapolate it to account for the thousands of people buying and selling multiple different quantities, changing their buy and sell prices as the market moves, etc.
Forsyth speak highly of SUM... target price gone back up (from $6.60 to $7.10)
Blue sky ahead they say...
but EPS growth expected to be negative for FY19... that won't help the much touted 9 year CAGR
