Investment Q&A

Q: Good day, 5i If you invested funds in CMR (no trade commission) is it ok to sell some of the invested money on the next day? Thank you for your help.

Q: Dear Peter et al:

Everyone including yourselves talk about 7+ T USD on the sidelines when a question about market correction is asked. This money will step in and protect the markets from a crash. That seems to be the
thesis here.

But the huge cash reserves of big companies, (BRK for example) pension funds and various PE firms
(listed and unlisted) have ALWAYS
been a feature in the market, no?.Even during the bull or bear
market this Cash on the sidelines has been a constant, right?
So, the question is what is the range of cash on the sidelines? Can this cash on the sidelines act as a " metric" to signal Bull or Bear market?
(Just like your thesis on VIX. 40+ means buying time).

In simple terms what should be the "Normal" cash on the sidelines?!

Q: Follow up question

If there is no premium for Teck why would management agree to takeover deal. Can you please give us the details of the deal is there a stock deal or cash and stock

If we consider the special dividend Anglo plans to shareholders prior to closing (which will impact the value of shares received as they will decline post-dividend) the deal is essentially at a 0% premium to TECK shareholders. The market is making the assumption that there will either be another offer or new bidders. Thus, we would hold for now.

Thanks for your advice

Thank you
