Q: Yahoo Finance is showing an ex-dividend date for Crius on May 30, 2019. Is there another dividend due on closing the transaction with Vistra? Also, I noticed that Credit Suisse acquired over 6 million shares of Crius on April 10 and 11 at a price that appears to average about $8.58 or $0.22 below the closing price. It seems that would produce a profit of $1,320,000 on closing. Not bad for a couple of months of holding the stock. Have I got this right?
