Q: Hi Guys
Looking at their most recent Quarterly I see El Corporate reported a loss of $462 Million on their investments. Should this raise alarm bells?
I was under the impression insurance companies invested their float very conservatively.
Thanks Gord

Q: PPR recently sent out a proxy vote. Upon signing into the website, I changed the “Appointee” to me. It stated: You or your designate must attend the meeting for your vote to be counted.” This is the first time I’ve seen such a requirement. I disagree with the statement. Last year with Covid a lot of companies wanted their shareholders to stay away from meetings, yet their votes counted. Now PPR is withholding a shareholders vote, due to mandatory attendance. Would they have a company bylaw to allow this and Is it setting a precedence?

CRP has also caught my attention with food prices the way they are and no let up in sight. What is your current opinion of CRP? Do you think it might be good holding for a trade until food prices show some sign of stabilizing?

Many Thanks for the Great Service,

Colin
