the battle of the charts

I don't know why TheWord persists in taking such a big interest in the welfare of Australand when he or she doesn't own any ALZ shares.

TheWord's latest attempt to bad-mouth ALZ (into falling in a heap) was a chart with some lines on it - lines that mean Jack Schmidt to me as I only have a Diploma of Agriculture - not a PhD in goat entrail, tea leaf or line interpretation.

Below is a chart that I *do* understand as it shows ALZ 30% rise in share price (since this time last year) and compares it with the DOW, the S&P and the Nasdaq.

What the chart omits is ALZ's dividends (since September last year) but they were OK by me.





When all else fails...
