BNA.PR.C Dividend Status Still Mysterious

I have not yet been able to determine the status of the “current” dividend.

As IĀ intended yesterday, I attempted to make contact with the company today (via both eMail and telephone), but was unsuccessful.

The TSE and Bloomberg are both still not showing any trace of the dividend. Checking the TSE data, by the way, costs me a buck a throw, so I hope you guys are grateful!

I will continue checking.

BNA.PR.C had a busy day today, perhaps a little inventory clean-out, perhaps just happenstance. Last night’s close was 24.91-95, but it traded as low as $24.68. Not many changed hands at that price, but the market was thin! In the afternoon National sold two lots of 10,000 shares apiece to RBC, the first one at $24.90, the second at $24.80, which knocked the closing quote down to $24.68-85.

So the bid’s off $0.23 on the day! It’s certainly behaving as if it has just gone ex-dividend, anyway!
