Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Good morning. I would appreciate your thoughts on bought deal announced today with National Bank selling 9 million shares at $12.60. The shares were selling at $14.00 2 days ago. It almost seems that there is an effort to keep the share price down and the stock is becoming frustrating to hold. With rising AUM and National Bank backstop should there not be shareholder value?

Q: Based on information from 5i I have been considering purchasing a small position in TMA for dividend income as well as capital gains. Perhaps it would be better to wait until they report in early March? Are your thoughts on TMA still positive going forward? Thank you.

What do I do with these? What are these? Do they entitle me to something now or later?
In essence keep or sell.
Thanks, Klaus
