In 2001, after two decades of publishing this newsletter, a skeptic from the newspaper realm remarked, "At least part of your success probably is attributable to a long string of luck", highligting "the remarkable success of just one recommendation", NZ Refining", which was sold in 1996 for a 34-fold gain.

Fast forward another 20 years and that "long string of good luck" has persisted: 

M2 Group merged with Vocus Communications and we sold for a 47-fold gain.
Michael Hill has soared to a  36-fold increase.
Toll Holdings was sold for a 23-fold gain.
ALS has a 24-fold increase in value. 
Our success extends beyond these notable examples:
Technology One was sold for a 16½-fold, 
Colonial Motors has seen its value increase by 13 times.
Village Roadshow  was taken over, realising an 8-fold return on our initial investment!
Centennial Coal was sold for a 9½-fold gain.
