RE: RE: Dividendxm

Hi sherbert2,
I agree with you that the shareholders will not get dividends while this deal is open. I disagree with you when you say that there will be a wave of tax loss selling. The stock is only down 5% since year end while the TSE is down 30.6%. That hardly constitutes grounds for anticipating a wave of tax selling.
In as far as appetite for junk bonds is concerned, please note that your concern is irrelevant as most of the debt (20+billion) has been rated investment grade by at least one of the rating agency. The deal will close. My only question is, will it close before the scheduled date? My guess is that it will.
So sherbert2, cover if you are short. If you don't have a position in the stock, move to another board because this board will shortly come to an end. So .....don't worry be happy.
