Q: Well, this sort of thing is alarming. DR is down almost 5% with selling at noon exceeding the average daily numbers. The only news I see is the dividend announcement.

Who is selling? On what information does someone unload like this? How do I get such, presumably, useful information?

Q: Considering the tone if the release this morning on Knight's Directors, I would take a wild guess it was commissioned by Jakobsohn.
Goodman put his pharmascience shares in a blind trust. This NR is no big deal...

Q: Hi. I can see that Dave has just asked my question about selling GUD given its current turmoil... so I won't ask that; however, even with keeping GUD I have too little exposure in the health care sector bc I sold JJ in January. Can you provide the names of any Canadian Health Care companies I could check out. Thanks,

Sue

Q: Shareholders of Prometic are being offered a rights issuance where each existing share owned will allow you to buy 20 shares at 1.5 cents. It is trading at 7 cents now real time. Am I missing something or should I jump at the deal. I thought the trading price would instantly come down to the dilution price mentioned in the release.

Q: Prometric announced a restructuring today , It seems like a lot of parts to it.
Can you explain the elements to it and point out the positives and negatives to the deal.
It seems more complicated then the Bellatrix deal.
Thanks
