Considering their previous advice I had wondered why the share price was easing since early November.  Probably would have topped up myself at under 33c except there are times when I am too busy to follow the market. 

My guess now is other/s knew of the missed guidance. 

The disappointing retail sales figure I am thinking might be a sign of changing home owner preferences.  Shadecloth has always been relatively cheap form of sun protection that many home owners could throw up themselves.  But as home owners get more fussy perhaps more are wanting more upmarket add-ons than shade cloth.  Insulated patio roofs seem more popular than ever before, in our area.  Long ago most houses were built with a  single car garage, one bathroom, and a basic kitchen.
