New Post Post Reply Thread View (0) Back << Previous Post Next Post >> A major difference between Gunns and the likes of TIM, GTP etc is that Gunns is and always has been a forestry and timber processing company long before MIS's (and in particular forestry MIS's) became flavour of the month. Gunns uses the MIS to fund plantations for future feeding into its mills, whereas TIM and GTP are financial services companies selling financial products. In the case of TIM (and maybe GTP) they have a number of different agricultural products and as far as I am aware neither TIM nor GTP are involved in downstream processing.
As to whether that makes Gunns a better investment at the present time, I can't say as I haven't researched their financial position.
