I would not put too much weight behind that article as they seem a bit misguided. Not saying all is rosy but CX shares have not been below 10 for about 7 years. A one year low of $6.99 is just untrue.

FYI Sloppy.. CPCAY is the U.S. traded bundle of CX shares. It's USD7 not HKD7.

I thought the initial plan was to milk CX for all it was worth and drive the share price up on the illusion of leanness and profitability through mindless cost cutting for the eventual sale to the Chinese government?

Has it now changed to making it as worthless as possible so the whole mess of an operation will be easier to sell?

It will probably not be long before Swire's divest themselves from their large shareholding.
Likely they will retain a very small percentage, just to keep the Swire logo attached to the Cathay Pacific brand name, while our mainland cousins up North assume total practical control.
Good times ahead! ��

How long have people here been spouting that nonsense. Getting old...

Not old at all. The company is being milked and the time to relinquish control is very near. No choice.

Pretty sure the Swire logo is present and correct on all the A50s.
