  1. @Parsad I highly recommend Sheringham Gin made a few miles outside of Victoria.
  2. And by not accounting for that gain, they are ignoring whatever future earnings will be created by the investment of that gain, whatever it happens to go towards.
  3. Rotary phone? My grandparents had one of these bad boys. Do I get credit for 21?
  4. While this could negatively impact the value of Fairfax's admittedly very large treasury holdings, isn't this a positive in the long run as they will be getting a higher yield in the future?
  5. I was wondering if this move had brought it close enough to book value to get you buying again. Gotta love the volatility!
  6. I blame it all on Parsad's US Treasury risk thread! I had trimmed a little at $1900, adding some of that back now.
  7. @gfp's point is true regardless, it seems the stock is trading up on the ex-date!
  8. That's why I said if you held at the open, purchasing today would be too late.
  9. I think today is the ex-date, so if you held at the open today you get it.
  10. This seems to be how Brett Horn looks at Fairfax, because insurance is a commodity it’s a “no moat” company and thus overvalued. Morningstar has their model and exceptional management doesn’t fit in it anywhere.
  11. This is the skill that @ERICOPOLY has said was the most important to him.
  12. So many great buying opportunities.
  13. Thanks for reminding me of that detail. I always forget how the plumbing is working behind the scenes.
  14. Excited to see what they do with the proceeds. Or maybe this is how they're paying for buying back the preferreds.
