    Say when.

    I quote
    “Here the white-shoes bankers at RBC are seeking to operate the Canadian division of the world’s great Chinese bank. From a cultural perspective, this ought to be an interesting marriage.

    Culture-conflict destroyed Northern Telecom (Nortel) after that hardware manufacturer purchased a multi-billion-dollar software company. At its peak 30 years ago, Nortel traded at a $380 billion market cap, making it the most valuable company in Canada. Nortel had grown to almost 35 percent of the value of the entire TSE 300 Composite Index group of companies. Within a few years of that divisive acquisition, the company went bankrupt. It seems that RBC didn’t learn that lesson.”

    Nice collection of charts! Thanks.

    Speaking of Nortel I recall when it was around it’s peak I was at a Credit Union doing some banking when a lady about 30 was talking to a financial advisor with the door open. I heard the advisor say “well you could sell some of your Nortel”. And the lady said “No,we’ll never sell any of it and just keep buying more every paycheck. She also said they had enough profit with it that both her and her husband could retire now. I often wonder what they are thinking about that now…………

    No market collapse. SPX continues to stick above the 200dayMA. The discussion with Jeremy Siegal on CNBC after the bell was a barn burner. Siegel is quite adamant that inflation is dropping quickly.
    XME, XBM – Quite a day

    Is anybody on board holding TLT. I was planning to buy it. Questions I have what income will I get & when. Will it be ever recalled & at what price? I hold some preferred & they pay quarterly & some have been recalled at the original price or changed to another issue. Thanks in advance for the response

  6. Ron/BC Says:

    Muntazir

    I dont’ know squat about the fundamentals of TLT other than it rises with falling interest rates and falls with rising interest rates. But the chart shows price did just clear its one year downtrendline which is a bullish event but price did stop at price resistance of 107 and is over bought. A pullback to 102 would be typical here and a breakout above 107 would suggest a much higher price ahead. That’s all I see here……………………(no story to tell)

    Hi Muntazir,
    I was just reading some of the comments/ conversations re TLT on Yahoo Finance.
    https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/TLT?p=TLT&.tsrc=fin-srch

    (There many bond etf’s trading on the TSX)

    From other comments on Yahoo Finance, TLT does pay a dividend.
    (but that is not the main event, the question is, in 2023-24,
    how much of a bond rally might there be, if interest rates come down?)

    There are still a few more FED increases to come. Could be TLT will trade lower when those happen. Could be this 6 week rally is just short covering, who knows? It really should not be happening now, Should happen when FED begins to cut, one would think.
