I know exactly what Forysth Barr will be doing - lining up an offshore merger fund to take a large block from their clients, then pitching a rotation from ARV to OCA or RYM which are their preferred picks. One of the reasons why flows will support the share prices of both in the short term.

Very profitable for them just on brokerage.

Yes well 10% of the total shares have changed hands so far today. That is a lot.

I believe it is very sad.Quite predictable really.NZ inc with its preoccupation/obsession with house price appreciation and continued suspicion/avoidance of the SM.
I believe it does not bode well for many listed companies ..not only those in the retirement sector.
