Dear Ned -- I'd agree with you that such an element contributes to the fund purchases of such stocks; there's a range of motivations for money managers and the RRSP eligibility factor is part of that mix; (so too is inclusion in the TSE 300 -- which almost automatically lands the subject stock into various index funds.) Welcome to SI!

NB - for anyone wondering about the two names appearing in previous items as Budapest police chief: Attila Berta, as noted in my first item, is the chief of police for Budapest; Lazlo Forgacs, identified in the NewsLife piece as Budapest's Police Chief, is actually Hungary's national chief of police. Speculation and rumour continue to surround the news of the recent deadly bomb blast in Budapest. The focus on organized crime has placed Semion Mogilevich prominently in the Hungarian news and today, the country's largest newspaper, Nepszabadsag, has printed quotes from the May 1998 Village Voice article on Mogilevich et al. Tamas Boros, a mafia informer (and possible police agent) was the target of the car bomb which also killed three people, described, so far, only as a young woman, a 57 year old man and a man in his twenties.
