    ISEQ Now Defunct?

    Why would any company want to list on the ISEQ?

    It has a reputation for being heavily weighted in banking and construction. Now that that's been wiped out, there's basically nothing left bar a few food companies.

    Surely any self-respecting, ambitious company would float elsewhere and avoid the stigma of being an Irish listed company?

    The damage done is irrepairable IMO. Ireland's reputation is ruined.

    I did mention a few times in the passed that it was very top heavy and now its down to the 2500 + - 300 points any given month it well be ok. Their is still half dozen perfectly sound companeys trading on it like 'origin' ...'Paddy power'... 'Tullow' and off course the ever reliable 'Kerry group' the ones that did all the damage being obvious and C&C along with some very odd moves in and out off shares by CEO's.
    So it well live on.
    Advances in any field are built upon people with the small or personal view. Give Israel Your support, it needs it.
