Q: It seems that the BAM stock had a split on Dec 12 2022.

4 old BAM shares gave rise 1 BN share & 4 new BAM shares.

On Dec 9 ( a Friday), the Value of old BAM was us$43.15

On Dec 12 (the next Monday), BN was valued at US$33.64 and new BAM was valued at US$32.40.

So the 4 shares valued at us$172.60 before the split were worth US$163.24 after the split.

FYI, I am using avg prices as reported on Google Finance. It seems like a 5% drop on Day 1.

Questions:

1. Is my calculation correct?
2. are the prices of BAM and BN on Dec 12 2022 dependent on the Dec price on Dec 9 2022 or determined well in advance?

Thanks

Q: hello 5i:
In the health care sector, we own ABBV, MRK and WELL. I'm not impressed with the future growth profile for ABBV. Would a change to either AMGN or UNH make sense here? Why or why not?
thanks

Q: Can you comment on ABBV latest quarterly report from last week. What did you like? Anything that you did not like. How is the debt position? Was there anything of particular interest to note from the call (either good or bad)? Do you still see it as a hold for the long term?
