Hi
If you look back a couple or 3 years ago on sharechat achives, I was quiet vocal about NZSE wild west, and rabbits diving for cover, and mentioning that NZSE were just as good if not better investment than advisors telling us to invest overseas companies especially the Dow. Time has proven me correct.(patting myself on the back. NZSE 2000 wild west ...yes. NZX 2003 wild west ......not so sure.

The NZX is not referred to as 'the wild west' for nothing. Ahhh, the heady
days of the mid '80s. And to be able to have free reign with other peoples
money, the founders must be in heaven. Unfortunately there are a few listed
companies on the NZX that would do better to be taken private (a bit like
the magazine of the same name).
There is a place for speculative companies with no historical earnings
(mining and biotech) but it is with professional investors and speculators,
not Joe Public.
Cheers,
J
