RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Wow! Irvine Votes for Lembit!Well, tbh I don't recommend it to anyone... it's been a headache to hold. Since Rob said he owned some and admitted he wasn't up to date with it I chimed in. I didn't buy any of it for my wife's TFSA, which I manage for her, and she is up to almost 200k in that portfolio (almost a 3 bagger from the max $75,500 we are allowed to start with) and making almost $1300k/mth in tax free divs and more to come once CHR resumes divs next year. Far better performance than my own TFSA which holds all the BBD shares. Certainly not my greatest move.

Never went near BBD, but I did come a cropper on Corus, Peyto, Bonterra and others, even before COVID. It was a huge relief to be able to swap them for much, much better quality assets at firesale prices thanks to the pandemic. In all seriousness, the last 15 months have been fantastic for my portfolio, and more than eradicated all my mistakes to date. Now, I get to make some new ones!

private business jets for the elite billionaires and tycoons. The market space is growing as more uber rich are minted every year and covid is added fuel. I don't know what government subsidy you are referring to, but BBD did not take any handouts during covid and in fact, recently raised private equity to bridge the gap of the train sale to France's Alstom, which they have now repaid along with bond holders for the next 2-3 years. The company is leaner now and on a good path. The family knows how to make money, just check out their
recreational division stock. I don't expect the same success with private business jets but a double from current levels is very doable.

they sold off the train unit, the plane unit, the recreational unit, so the only revenue stream I can think of them still having is the Government subsidy unit. And although that likely brings in massive amounts of money it's not really a business model.
sarcasm off :)
In all seriousness, BBD is one dog im not chasing down again. Luckily it was a very small investment.
