Goodman Fielder enters top 50 in index changes
The New Zealand Exchange (NZX) has reshuffled the sharemarket's top 50 index following its quarterly index review.

AMP Property currently holds just under 85% in Capital Properties, and is aiming to get to 90%, sparking a compulsory acquisition of all remaining shares, by the time the offer closes on January 13.
As Capital Properties exited, Goodman Fielder made its debut in the top 50. Goodman Fielder listed on the main board on December 19 at an issue price of $2.13, today it rose 2c to $2.27.
In other index changes Carter Holt Harvey, which is the subject of a $2.50 a share takeover offer from Graeme Hart's Rank Group, was transferred from the NZX 10 Index to the NZX MidCap Index, swapping placed with Vector.
