Agreed! I finally added it to my TFSA with my $FN.to sell. Thing is a special dividend machine 💪

So I have spent the day wondering how to replace $FN.TO.. well quite frankly, you cant.
-Huge insider ownership
-increasing and special divs
-bet on Canada economy
-reduced share count
Conclusion: sucks, but happy $Bn and $bam are top 5 largest holdings
You have a replacement?

I don’t mind when one of my positions gets bought out by a bigger company. Nice bump in the value.
$FN.TO anyone?

BREAKING: First National $FN.to to be acquired by Brookfield and Birch Hill for $48/share. That’s a ~13% premium compared to Friday’s close.
FN offered a terrific combo of dividend yield and growth. I was looking forward to owning it for a decade or two. Too bad.

Sad to see $FN.TO go. (And not just because I sold most of mine 20% lower recently)
Was a great little company that was a nice stable total return yielded
