Just when you thought the fuss was all over, the issuing of share certificates to the 570,000 odd new private investors in Telecom Eireann from Wednesday ensures the group's lingering debut on the stock markets will continue to be the focus of attention this week.
Apart from interest in how many investors will opt to sell their shares , possibly saturating the market temporarily and driving the price down, there is also the issue of financial institutions chasing the cash that such sales will yield.
In addition, there is all the money belonging to investors who failed to secure as much of a stake in Telecom as they had envisaged.
