Hi Mike, sorry but I have no interest in finding out any further info on this subject. To disgusted with their errant decision making, but rest assured when they do find something I will make sure everyone knows what a bunch of idiots these specific fund managers were. Maybe I will start an AGF thread, where I repeatedly remind everyone about their shortcomings in the handling of their funds. When Massie bought these stocks he projected a 5 to 7 year approach, obviously these managers have the attention span of a newt and decision making ability of a cow. As stated before I don't believe any research was done by these yoyo's, and I certainly would not recommend buying any of these funds handled by these 3. But essentially they have screwed their unitholders huge. We here all know and believe Rory will find it one day, when, who knows, but he will and then these guys should be kicked in the ass and shown the door. The only people screwed so far are the unitholders of these 3 funds. Personally, I see AGF rapeing the global strategy funds for their own self serving and greedy ways. Kind of reminds you of the broker(s) shorting on this sell order. Shouldn't he be investigated for this insider tip and subsequent insider trader info. This is another prime example of why the exchanges in this country are an absolute joke. Always lots of smoke, but no fire. No wonder people are afraid to invest in canadian markets when the policy makers are the same greedy bastards doing the sneaky lizard dance. Want to let the individual shareholders have a better chance. Then start firing brokers that do anything shady or illigel right off, on any other line of work you do something shady at work, you get canned and that's it. With no rehires in the industry forever. Secondly, stop jitney trades, as this allows shady and underhanded brokers from shorting through other houses, ususally with the inside info on some client being pressured out of some stock. Think about it. Canada has to clean up their act, but the people making the policy decisions have alterior motives. Disclosure to all shareholders is another issue, that has been addressed, but in it's truest form is still a joke, as companies, brokers, fund managers etc can and have been manipulated by each other for years. Look at Nortel and virtually every other internet and resource company out there, how many people have lost their life savings and retirement funds because of this lack of full disclosure. The answer: Every one of us, yet like ostriches, we continue to put our head in the sand and do nothing about it. I urge every unitholder of these 3 funds to phone AGF and remind them of their shortcomings.

Hi Mike,

Can you throw any light on the HSBC sales?

Isn't it obvious by now? AGF are selling thru HSBC! Our only hope is that someone is being lined up to buy whatever they intend to sell. This 25K or so a day is ridiculous. Let's see a big cross. How about it, Georgie Porgie?
