veeone Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Whats people thoughts on medibank private?? Good value at below $2?? V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alonso Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I haven't got any thoughts on value, but I do have on the sale. I don't see a lot of difference here from when eg AMP went private. In my view what we've got is private property being appropriated contrary to the constitution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodo Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Hi V1 I think at $2 or 1.80 would be better then it has to be of value. Checking out where NIB is at around $3 mark and MPL is the largest in Australia I would say something drastic would have to happen for it not to open higher than this. Not saying its going to be going north on a daily basis but nice to have a few I think. Depends on how many we are allocated. I think they own AHM too. I guess they will be advertising on tv like NIB and getting very commercial just hope they have the right management in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodo Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I must have a vacancy in my head I seriously thought because I had registered for this that they would be emailling me today with the application. Looks like I just got to do it all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwlkr Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 They're advertising this pretty hard. Really going for the retail investors. What's the ownership structure like for Medibank pre-IPO? I would like to know whose shares we're buying. What's that saying - once bitten twice shy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbear Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 It does not matter you will get only a small allocation anyway,not worth the trouble but maybe a good buy a couple of days after the open and good longer term outlook,cheers mrbear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alonso Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 A bit off topic I suppose but does selling a health fund to the public mean that future govts' hands are tied with respect to the health insurance rebate? This is a significant question in relation to all businesses such as this. I don't mind admitting I got out of RHC because I was petrified about what the Rudd/Gillard govts might do.

henrietta Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Probably good value V1 , but I was offered only about 8% of what I asked for, so asked my broker to give them to someone else. Will have a look again after they list, and have their first drop. Cheers J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veeone Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Wow 8% of what you wanted is not good. Could you also have bought through the IPO and got more that way (double dip)? You get 15% more they say by the pre-registering. Put in for what i wanted thru the IPO instead my broker. Bpayd the amount so now wait and see what scale back there is i guess. Hope its not a huge scale back as as you say may not have been worth the trouble. Also in the time it take to get refund the money could have been used elsewhere!!
