After 3 weeks by myself, my wife and kids are coming back from Canada today. Super excited as it means I can rewatch the first 3 episodes of #TheLastOfUsHBO with my wife! Seeing the kids will be ok too...

Ryman finally pulling the trigger and raising capital. Raising $902m through a 1 for 2.81 accelerated pro rata entitlement offer at $5 per new share (last traded $6.40). Reduces gearing from 45.3% to 33.9%.

A simple quote from a Tesla competitor, reported in the press, is tagged as misinformation by the CEO (still CEO right?) with massive conflicts of interest. Try to like the tweet, and see what happens.

Lies, you sleep on a bed of lies!

"Serko confirms no funds held at Silicon Valley Bank"... ahh, thanks, I also confirm I have not funds at Silicon Valley Bank.

Hallensteins included in the NZX50 today. Down over 4%. They were up 25% in the few weeks leading up to their inclusion as index trackers purchased shares in anticipation of their inclusion, with the bulk of the volume going through last night near recent highs. #EfficientMarkets

FINALLY... Synlait/a2 get their SAMR license... sweet relief. It will be interesting to see how they trade today. Most analysts had the approval assumed, although I'm sure we'll see a bump in the share prices.

Great chart here. Sigma lost the Chemist Warehouse Contract in July 2018, causing the spike down. Today they announced they won it back. The share price still down from 2018 level.

Pacific Edge $PEB getting a medically necessary exam from the share market today. Wow, down 89.9% on the open, now 5 cents per share. $360m of market cap gone.

Sold some shares in Auckland Airport today for a 76 year old who managed to arrange and post me all the paperwork required within 2 weeks. Easy as you like.

Ring the bell

Not a good time for Google to be pushing this memory!

$KMD Kathmandu reporting a soft trading update. Down 6% currently. Slight miss on revenue and larger miss on EBITDA. 4th quarter "has been more challenging, with increased cost-of-living pressures softening consumer sentiment". Expect we'll see this line a bit in reporting season

If you did this in a market for anything other than humans they would call it collusion and fairly explicit collusion at that!

Dressing as the scariest person in NZ right now, Winston Peters, for Halloween. Any ideas apart from a 'NO' sign and some Dunhill Blues poking out of the pocket. Bear in mind, I'm half assing it (saves me changing out of my suit).

Always our no.5 Meikayla Moore - She/Her

$EBO goes into trading halt on the back of rumours of a takeover of Greencross (an Australian veterinary business). Wonder if we'll see any buying in NZX listed Green Cross Health Limited today.

Credit to this guy. Pretended to be in a coma for two weeks to pull off the "what's up doc?" gag. Commitment to the bit.

Gov. Walz: Donald Trump said he would release his medical records. I think he forgot to do it. He's been forgetting things. Watch his rallies. He's confused. He's ranting and rambling until people get bored and leave his rallies. It would be funny if it wasn't so dangerous
