The Bottom Line’s Paul McBeth and New Zealand Shareholders’ Association chief executive Oliver Mander return with The Long and the Short of It, where they discuss the latest goings-on in marketland.

Paul extols the benefits of a good night’s sleep, but still manages to be 1 cent out in trying to remember the Bremworth valuer’s range.
