Fair comment but on a personal level I've never made any decision based on what happens in this forum. I find it interesting and sometimes entertaining but my purchases come from factual information (and I have stuffed up on a couple of occasions). You will note my sentiment has always been LT Buy and as I've held for a very long time, history will dictate that is very accurate.
BTW as I've said before, CCL is certainly not a monopoly which is part of the reason I choose to stay. They are in the most part good corporate citizens who try hard to make a crust and in fact are one of the few big companies still investing heavily in Australian manufacture (sadly).
If I was really honest, I don't see a lot happening until the new CEO has her feet under the desk. She will have 5 months with Terry Davis' guiding hand then she's on her own. That will probably see the next step change.
