Plus, the influx of the rest of the THI shares from the WEN distribution means a big imbalance between supply and demand. It's probably best to take this spin off as an opportunity to include the stock into the index, as in the long run, it does not distrupt the stock. But the current blip should correct itself very shortly I’m still calling buyer beware on THI.. with the index funds in a buying frenzy to mirrot the TSX inclusion, the current displayed demand is very artificial.

Article link is <a href="http://news.sympatico.msn.cbc.ca/Tim+Hortons+to+join+SPTSX+60+index+Abitibi+drops+out/Business/ContentPosting.aspx?isfa=1&newsitemid=tims&feedname=CBC-BUSINESS-V2&show=True&number=5&showbyline=True&subtitle=&detect=&abc=abc" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Maybe it's better to buy WEN? On a side note -- why do you shy away from income trusts? There are some quality companies using the trust structure. Looks like THI is being added to the TSX.

So much for the expectation that the huge over-hang of the distribution by WEN will depress the price. :) Yes, I noticed that THI is up.

I was watching it yesterday and hoping it would go a little bit lower. I hope it does go lower in the next couple of weeks when all those extra shares from Wendy's get put on the market but I don't know if that will happen.

I personally don't view Derek Foster as 'retired'. He wrote his book, he writes a column for Canadian Money Saver magazine and maybe some other things. He is financially indepenent though which I think is a great position to be in and is what I am trying to work towards. I am getting there but I'm not going to make it in the next 2 months and be able to claim the youngest Canadian retiree title from Derek. :) That Derek Foster article is interesting.
