Thumbs up for your optimism, koro.

My only peev with Mr Voelte is the way he announced his arrival at both Seven & Nexus as "favours" to his friends within those companies (Kerry Stokes & Lucio Della Martina respectively). I hope he lives up to all the high expectations, but I have my doubts about him sticking around for very long. He only began his role as MD/CEO with Seven 5 months ago and is already rumoured to be leaving. These corporate types don't work for charity and most of them are allergic to "long-term" commitment. Don't forget that SWM shares were trading at nearly $4 earlier this year, and were still above $2 at the time of his appointment. Therefore, I can't imagine too many shareholders are getting excited about seeing the SP skyrocket to $1.30 these past few days.

BTW I don't mean to sound negative...I'm just very skeptical.
