""((I cannot believe ESG management have passed along market sensitive info to a broker to disseminate to clients to trade on in research notes like this. It would be running a very fine line (particularly for the broker).))""

JTaylor,

Let's get down to basics my friend. Because it seems that you are clutching at straws there.

How do you think the Brokers can make recommendations to their clients as to whether they will advise to BUY, or SELL, or HOLD, or whatever, if they don't get the information from the company first, and make proper due diligence ..?? IMHO, they (the Company) don't have to tell us, but the brokers have to make recommendation to their clients on the shares and give a present and futuristic view and idea on what the sp should be, or will be, within a certain period of time, and inform the public at large as well.

The Company need the Brokers to support their shares, and the Brokers need their clients to buy, sell, or whatever to make money via their commissions.

If they are only to guess and advise their clients based simply on hot air, they (the Brokers) could run the risk, and look for potential litigations.

Lets' face it. How many investors would buy shares in a Company if they never read a report from the media, the Brokers or no one else for that matter..?? IMHO, we would still be only a penny dreadfull like many others out there.

All is good mate.
