CORRECT: Cdn Imperial Could See C$4.04B Gain From Global Crossing

Symbol: BCM GBLX C/CM
Industry: BAN BNK CBN CMT TEL
Subject: DJN DJWI COR DJS MMM STK TEC WEI
Market Sector: FIN TEC TPX
Geographic Region: CA CN NME ONT PRM US USW
Product/Service: DBK DCA DTE

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (BCM) could record an after-tax capital
gain of C$9.80 for each of its own fully diluted shares from selling its stake
in Global Crossing Ltd. (GBLX), calculated Roy Palmer of TD Securities. At
last report, Canadian Imperial had about 412.6 million common shares
outstanding. That means the bank could see total net capital gain from the
sale of its Global Crossing stake of about C$4.04 billion.
(In an item published at 10:44 a.m. EST (1544 GMT), the after-tax profit
Canadian Imperial could earn from Global Crossing was incorrectly reported at
about C$688 million.)

IMHO - Canadian won't reduce their holdings very much in the 4Q.
This company has a long long way to go re: appreciation & Canadian knows that.

Wherever you get in here - it is in the early stages of this company & it's future appreciation. You have only seen the beginning of the bandwidth explosion. If you have a chance - pick up analyst reports
from some of the major brokerage houses to get a feel for this company's future (& that was before the last billion dollar press release) Also - read the Nov 98 Gilder report if you get a chance (you can probably call them and get a free back issue as a sample if you don't subscribe). Gives other info about the co. as well.
The management of this co. is superb.

I feel like I'm where AOL was in '93 '94 or MSFT in the 80's etc....
in terms of future LT appreciation. Very warm and fuzzy

GBLX buys Frontier - company is looking more and more like QWST. Question is, is it undervalued or is GBLX overvalued?

Global Crossing plans to pay $62 a share for each Frontier share, so long as shares of Global Crossing trade between $34.56 and $56.78. Perhaps we're going to see a drop in price. However, this gives GBLX a real chance to be a long term player IMHO.
