Ann: BOQ Completes Sale of St Andrew's Insurance, page-17

Then id say your being foolish.

How can you trust a broker or their sentiment? There are multiple reasons that are logical that you shouldnt....

Just to name 3:

1) Externalities ie outside factors that could impact on their valuation they have no control over.
2) Kickbacks from the businesses they push.
3) Disclaimers at the bottom of the page in small print - ie invest at your own risk & no guarantees....

Given the extent of market uncertainty there would be limited brokers out there willing to put their neck on the line for one of their recommendations.

Don't get me wrong I can see your point about Disallowed salesmen, but at the end of the day the decision rides with you whether a stock is a gem or dime a dozen.

I expect that large holders are pushing this stock down at the moment with a small portion of their large portfolio, this will allow them to receive more shares if they are on DRP and price is based off the VWAP relative to $0.22 per share.
