Q: Been trying to find out if either of these holdings in BHP will be entitled to receive the new Woodside shares that only trade on the Australian exchange.
Stock took quite a drop when management decided to hive off its petroleum business but receiving these shares would help balance the loss in valuation.
Any idea how one would sell the Woodside shares if they are distributed to the ADR holders?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Nice report on AND. Just wondering if TFII operates in the same space. We've done very well with TFII (thanks, 5i) but are a bit low in Healthcare. AND looks promising, but want to make sure that it's complementary to TFII.

Thanks for your insight.

Q: I have a two energy stocks (SU & IMO), but I don't have any mining/resource stocks. BNN mentioned both RIO and BHP Group as having good potential and also good inflation picks. I'm thinking about picking up the above two and also LUN and possibly CMMC. Do you see any problems with this combination for a conservative investor?

thanks for the great service!

Paul

Q: Hi 5-i:
Not a question,but rather a comment. I notice today that some members have written in about the results of what they have received from offering their IPL shares to Brookfield. I had 40,618 IPL shares times .250 = 10,154 exchangeable units, however, RBC direct investing showed in the activity section of my account 40,618 times .24974626 = 10,144 brookfield units. I am short 10 units times an approximate value of $ 71.00 = $ 710.00. Brookfield is using the .24974626 factor instead of the .250 that they offered. I am waiting on a resolution to the matter, but encourage others to check their account, and with their broker, and if so to express their discontent to Brookfield. They will save millions by using the incorrect multiplier. I experienced a similar problem when they spun out the BEPC shares. The announcement stated that all allocations would be rounded up, but when it didn't happen, I checked with my broker and they said that they were not allocated enough shares to do that. I recall that 5-i had some questions concerning that issue.
Thanks,
Ben.
