Speaking of creating Shareholder Wealth over time, no its not CSL that performed best . It is Northern Star (NST) and Promedicus (PME) - of course you could argue that both these stocks came from a low base. True, there is no doubt CSL has been the true blue stock . But considering its lofty market cap, and gold's potential to climb from here, NST has more legs I reckon in the months and years ahead.

And Telstra has just been a disaster.... TPG and Vodafone merger will mean greater competition ahead for the behemoth Telco with margins thinning by the day.
