Ann: Half Year Accounts - Presentation Briefing S, page-8

re: Ann: Half Year Accounts - Presentation Br... I'm getting closer to 6m shares traded that day, but I take your point. Well I take your points in fact; on the shorting and mgt remuneration. Executive salaries are a bit like house prices. The agents who sell them have an incentive to bid them up, and there is no mechanism in the market to drive them down again.

I'm still a hold, or even accumulate. I'm not saying the SP won't fall further, but I think the less than stellar mgt is already quite well factored in.
