Q: Hi,

Would you be a buyer of ABT now, or would it be more prudent to wait until after their next earnings release, which I believe Feb 6?

Thanks,Brad

Q: In your experience would you expect the shares of JPJ-LSE and ITX-T to trade in unison? I guess there is no way to determine how many choose the exchangeable option, my concern would be liquidity issues on the TSX and the size of the float. It looks like JPJ is up about 8% in the first couple of days on the LSE.

Q: Good morning. Just a quick funny (not so funny?) thought in reply to Dave's question regarding the freshi IPO and your answer. It strikes me that it is a lot like trying to get concert tickets prior to the resellers getting them all and reselling them at an inflated price! I guess it's the world we mere mortals live in.
