Q: Hi 5i,
I received a notice of a tender offer for ECN shares. The offer advises that existing shareholders can participate by specifying a price between $3.49 to $3.90 per share as a Dutch auction. Can you clarify how this sort of thing typically works, versus just buying at the market price? I'm wondering if this is a good deal for existing shareholders. As of me writing this, the share price is $3.71.

Q: I have been using the Globe and Mail "My Watchlist" for years which I have found quite useful, although gradually some features have been removed and saved for G&M subscribers only.
Now The watchlist feature is only available to subscribers only.
I really don't want to subscribe to the Globe and Mail Paper which has nothing to do with the Watchlist. I am hoping that 5i (or one of 5i's subscribers may know of a similar site.
Thank you for any you can provide.
John
