Q: What do you think of TRI at these prices? It seems quite volatile but recent news of solid customers, product and co-operation with AI firms should have calmed things down. What are your thoughts? Any alternatives?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Normally, I don't attend Meetings of shareholders, but I do vote online.
Thomson Reuters Corporation is having a Special Meeting of Shareholders in late April, to:
1. Consider, pursuant to an interim order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) dated March 11, 2026, and,
if deemed advisable, to approve, with or without amendment, a special resolution approving a plan of arrangement pursuant
to Section 182 of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (OBCA) under which Thomson Reuters Corporation will (i) make a
special cash distribution of $605 million in the aggregate, and (ii) consolidate its outstanding common shares (or “reverse
stock split”) on a basis that is proportional to the special cash distribution, as described in the accompanying circular; and
2. Transact any other business properly brought before the meeting and any adjourned or postponed meeting.
Given that the share price has declined significantly, do such meetings for the Corporation provide an opportunity to discuss steps they may be taking to improve the share price?
Thanks as always for your valued insight and perspectives.

Q: Would you consider ENB, TRP, ALA as energy stock? My weight is above 15% for energy and just wonder if any of these can be group in a different sector?
Thanks
Thanks
Q: This is a follow-up to a question asked by Josh on Canadian junior oil producers. As part of your answer today you stated "One theme to also consider is service companies. Energy companies are going to be flush with cash at $90+ oil prices."
My question is, service companies such as....?
Thank you.

Thank you.
Q: If oil prices stay higher for longer, a period of stagflation becomes more likely. Was gold/gold stocks a good sector to be in during the last stagflation, and would you recommend it as a sector to overweight today?
Q: Would you sell or hold FICO?
Thanks
Thanks
Q: I get that Bn doesn’t have same credit risk exposures as many of the private credit providers but I wonder if Bn is effected if these companies such as Apollo, can no longer participate in new projects as their outflows may be too high. I believe Bn doesn’t provide 100% funding for its large investments but comes in as one of a group of players, if other players are stepping back will Bn have to slow its rate of investment?
Q: What is causing FICO to keep going down?
Q: Hi.
Just doing my taxes and note a discrepancy between the broker generated proceeds of disposition and the T5008. The difference is that the T5008 includes as proceeds the rollover amount from RPI.UN to RIC. I thought this was a tax deferred rollover. Was there anything that I as a shareholder had to do to secure this or is this an error on the T5008?

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor. Long term holder of HHL with a full position. It is my proxy for the health care sector.
Looking at your "total return" chart (capital gain + distribution) over multiple time frames, it appears to me we may be approaching some significant support in the $6,50 to $6.60 area.
Would you agree that the risk-reward ratio is swinging in favor of adding additional funds? Or, do we need to continue to sit on our hands and wait for a change in USA Healthcare Gov't leadership?
Happy to continue to just sit......Steve
