It gives the ongoing sellers a bit more they have to think about before dumping chunks just based on a lack of buy orders on the ASX. With some wariness that London investors could be snapping shares up and increasing the SP, the guys here don't have full control anymore..
It will be interesting to see which market really takes the lead with price direction. Particularly after news where investors here have taken the opportunity of extra liquidity to sell in the past.
I like the extra dynamics of not just having the few sellers here dictating price movements.
