Hi Gooru,

I don't mean to pour cold water on your post's otherwise balanced view point, the ice water is best used on the long white booted cheer leaders, but the following quote from your post made me laugh so much that I suggest you get a reality check on this particular **belief** or **hope** before too long.

"What you are betting on is that the management have the skill and tenacity to navigate around these mine fields with shareholder value at the top of mind."

LOLOL ROFLMAO..the only accurate word in there is "bet"
(+ thumb)

um, shareholders have lost their usefulness until they are required to cough up again. This was proved when the $,-hit the fan and the banks footed the bill for the hybrids, there was no confidence that shareholders had the ability and the banks did not want shareholders to dilute the banks equity holding over CNP assets anyway. Centro need to keep feeding the banks and the banks can smell blood, and the banks effectively own all the assets and management atm, three things you have zero control over. It is all about cashflow atm, not promises, shareholders will be out manoeuvred up to the point when they can bleed no more, then they will be discarded. Management will work with whoever helps them keep their job.

wake up to the sentimental pandering coming from the cheerleaders and Centro management.
