Hi. Long time, no see. I still am a fan of Tessenderlo. Underappreciated stock and way down from their ATH. But better diversified, better capitalised, better managed than ever. I don't think they will ever pay dividends, he rather keeps investing. Bought gas power plant, looking to build new one...
Hi Garry! It has indeed been a long time!
I agree on the dividends. He will use it to expand the business and I do not mind him doing that.
