Well they (Coles) would say that, wouldn’t they? It seems pretty clear what they did. First jacked up prices for a few weeks, then reduced them - BUT NOT back to, or under, the previous price, but above it. 🤔
And if Coles thinks we can’t spot a pattern this blatant… well shareholders: SACK that CEO & save yourselves the money for your dividend that way.😁
While we’re at it, how much money is the Coles Board hoovering up? More savings right there.
Now let’s talk about insider trading… 🤔🙂
