Q: CWB up quite a bit today on the news of National's attempt to purchase. Up 70% but if I'm not mistaken there is still 40% on the table. { Please correct me if I am wrong about that 40% } Pundits on the Business channel have been commenting this morning and the consensus seems to be the government is unlikely to quash the deal ..... 40% is a nice arb play if the odds look good. Mind you if it doesn't go through there would likely be a nasty drop ...... What says 5i ? Do you like the arb play here on a risk reward basis ?

Q: As the NA price drops due to its offer to buy CWB is it a buy at this point or better to wait to settle the dust. Also, do you expect issuance of one billion new equity will offer at a lower price than current market price or it may dampen share price further?
