Federated Farmers Calls for Continuity as Fonterra CEO Miles Hurrell Steps Down
More of the same please, says Federated Farmers dairy chair Karl Dean when asked about who should succeed Miles Hurrell as Fonterra chief executive.
Judging by the performance of Fonterra's share price on the New Zealand Stock Exchange, farmers are still offloading their shares for fear of the prices crashing under a farmers-only trading market.
Since the revised preferred option was unveiled on July 19, the share price has dropped 40c to $3/share.
The share price touched an all-time low of $2.88 six weeks ago and was heading into the same territory last week.
