Are there advantages to their conversion to a traditional corporation?

Syncrude's November production was outstanding--356,800 bbl/d. Also, they anticipate fewer days of scheduled downtime and lower capital costs. Assuming no unscheduled events, always iffy, a higher dividend by mid-year seems more than possible.

Seemed to me there had been a lot of speculation (and even the company mentioning) that it was likely the dividend would be cut (maybe on the last quarter EPS report)? Didn't seem like it should have caused as big a hit as it did. The assets are still intact, production is pretty much still intact. Costs are up, but if the price of oil is gonna keep tracking higher in the long run it won't matter. I had a bid in for COSWF at 24.71 today and just missed. If we get another down day I'll get more.
