Q: Just a general question re a company's market cap. When a company's stock rises dramatically and the shares are bought and sold in the secondary market, how does a company become more valuable and richer even though they don't receive any of the proceeds, since i would think it wouldn't affect the bottom line, thanks??

Portfolio Analytics indicates that I need to increase our industrial exposure. We already own CNR in this sector. Shares are under pressure today due to a weak earnings report. Would you be a buyer today? Thanks for your insight.

Q: You recently mentioned that "the spin out of Topicus is a dividend-in-kind. Shareholders will receive 1.85 shares of Topicus for each share of CSU held. The price of CSU will drop a bit on the ex dividend date to reflect the value of the new shares to be received." From a tax perspective, what does this mean? Is the entire BV of the Topicus shares that are spun out treated as a dividend and benefit from the cnd dividend tax credit and the BV of the CSU shares drops by the same amount?
