If you take on a Warren Buffet approach to investment, economics will have almost nothing to do with your investment decisions.. and before you say day traders, or short term traders... find me some who have been around for 20 years and haven't lost their capital. I'd say you're better off...

Don't worry Ash, we don't get full receptions out here at all places...

Wait at least 1-2 days, of course. That way you seem cool, indepdent and free.

haha, tell us the stories about Louise.

Yeah, my bad.. got my wires crossed, haven't followed Telstra for a long time.

A lot of women bitch & complain too much about trivial things. I don't like a girly girl, feminine, but not too girly girly. - feminine - not skinny, in most cases more often than not I'll prefer someone a lil' chubby.. - is fun to hang out with like a mate, can joke around with, etc...

haha, shit.. you're right. Guess I don't follow Telstra as closely anymore since I sold my holdings. Still, the point remains that Telstra is in a bad financial position... just not as bad as I thought it was :D

Are you sure? :confused:

How so? 10 char

It doesn't matter that the key company behind the communication services in Australia is worth billion of dollars and is financially screwed, in that it's not financially viable to maintain? playboy2njoy, glad someone knows what I am talking about!

I know that, I'm talking about T3.. another capital raising.

I don't understand what you're saying? At this point in time for Telstra, raising more equity is BAD news!! Evidence that Telstra is financially screwed, part of the reason the government wants to sell Telstra. It's hard to explain what I'm trying to say, maybe I don't fully understand...

why do you think the govt. wants to sell its ownership of Telstra?

You guys need to look at the financial statements of Telstra over a few years... Look at profit margins, asset turnover ratio, consider the effects of inflation on a company which is so asset and capital intensive. In essence, Telstra is a cash user, not a cash generator like many of you...

Yes, T3 is floating.... I think they are going to have a hard time selling T3 when many investors still have a bitter taste in their mouth from the losses they incurred from T2, buying T2 around the $7 mark.. plus, the recent plummet in share price certainly hasn't helped. Any financial...

Yeah, private sector. Telstra is already competing... Orange, Optus, Kooee, 3, Vodafone, Dodo, Netspace, just to name a few. The margins are cut-throat. What Telstra has that others don't is the infrastructure that provide these services... Telstra is forced by the ACCC to rent these...

so once the Government sell their stake in Telstra, the communication industry is up to the public?

Guys, Telstra is NOT generating profit! The benefits of being a public company allow you to go to the market to raise equity, which, with a mixture of debt, help you get the company up and running until you're making a profit. After that, the retained profit from operations are enough to...

There's another thread going on, debating the services provided to country people by Telstra. However, with the recent dump in share price of Telstra yesterday.. and the worst possibly yet to come, what is going to happen with Telstra? Keep in mind, the Government has wanted to sell their...

Seen the recent dump in share price by Telstra? TLS is in BIG trouble! I suspect we haven't seen the end of this decrease in share price yet either.. The government want to sell their 50.1% stake in Telstra, is that so they don't face the burden & cost of providing communication services...
