Just curious if you have spoken to Goodman post-deal...perhaps he was able to walk you through the numbers on how the sale of the stake got us to the $9.54 (ie taxes fees / discount
I'm glad to see this deal and another significant near-term cash inflow. Though I took profits on a minority of my position with the news, I think it's again an attractive holding at $17, particularly... login to read the rest
