LONG-TIME Criterion readers
would be familiar with our
sceptical stance on seafood
stocks, with a string of earlier
listed fish failures such as Sam's
Seafood shaping our attitude.
Now, fish is the new black.
Revived Tassie salmon outfit
Tassal (TGR, $3.40) is making
good money, while the Port
Lincoln-based Clean Seas Tuna

Kingfish Swoops In
(108.6 KB)
THE omens were not good for a
new listing yesterday but it was a
"loaves and fishes" event for
media mogul Lachlan Murdoch.
Despite extreme market
volatility, his 13 per cent stake in
fish farmer Western Kingfish
produced plenty of bread.
At yesterday's close of 28C, the
stock is up 30 on the 250 float price
which is a handy $142,272 profit for
Murdoch's private company Illyria.

Aussie Fish Farmers take quite a catch
(852.8 KB)
The Australian Farming sector
has been through a tough time
with drought, except for a sub-sector
that doesnt need water except to swim in.
Fish Farming, or Aquaculture, is the
fastest growing primary industry in
Australia. In fact, it is the fastest
growing food production sector in the world,
with output up sixfold in the past 20 years.
As global demand for protein grows, fish
consumption is growing at 2.3 percent a year,
according to the United Nations Food and
Agriculture Organisation (FAO),
and will rise 25 percent by 2015.
