Good way to be, an optimistic realist. Thanks guys, good to read your posts. There things to be thankful for, such as no danger of CRs and significant dilution for a fair bit (well as far as I am aware of), and none of us are selling and instead patiently accumulating at prices of these [prices.

Finally, this thought briefly passed through my mind. STL is being punished for not doing a CR for the Indue takeover. Brokers/ Instos manipulating price down so as to buy cheaper, as if to mimic a discount for brokering a CR. My wild imagination, or a bit of paranoia, but I am sure this has been done before. CRs are the default means of raising funds in the ASX, and obviously benefit Instos and Brokers who get disvcounted stocks galore. They would not have liked that, STL funding this takeover through debt. Punishing STL and other Coys doing the same sends a message. Paranoid? More I think about it the less I think I am paranoid
