Ann: Change in substantial holding-ALY.AX, page-44

Hmmmm!

The buying interest is still there; very much alive in fact!

HQ said yesterday that it did not know why there was great buying interest. Obviously, if it comes to know of something material/price-sensitive after that time, then it will have to release that info in a timely manner.

All I can think of is that the market cap was considered way too low by certain sectors but that they let BlueCrest offload without pushing the buying, instead letting BC come to them at between 1.3 and 1.5. Then, when the 'no longer a substantial holder' notice issued they attacked.

So, without any special news imminent, what is a fair MC? In comparison with other micros doing similar things it still seems too low imo. There are just under 231m shares on issue and no threatening option conversions.

This was the top 20 as at 1/9/15.

That's a total of 142,837,714  and = 62.43% of the shares on issue at that time, about 229m. Citicorp would have been BC. Where have its shares gone?

It would be nice to have a current top 20, or better still one as at next Monday.

There has been no Notice of change in NST's holding so far.
