RE: From the release...Sorry, I indicated earlier that Nov 23rd (Fri) was the last day to participate through MGH on AMEX in the BM share offering. This is actually the ex-div date for MGH, and Nov 21st (Wed) is the last trading day to buy MGH + BM. I note that Nov 22nd (Thurs) is US Thanksgiving Day, so no trading. It would certainly be a lot less confusing if they could have coordinated a common Cdn/US MMM/MGH ex-div date.
I note that Minco Silver (MSV) was up 7.5% today, so given MMM's 45% holding, this would have no doubt mitigated the downward ex-div effect. Hopefully MGH.WI will trade tomorrow on AMEX to better gauge the perceived BM Co share value vis-à-vis MGH, which had an unusual close @ 1.32?
