TXPR touched a new 52 Week low of 695.25 (note that this is the price index, not the total return index; saying that this is a 52-week low ignores interim dividends paid), while, unsurprisingly, CPD did the same, touching a new 52 Week low of 13.93 (with a similar not about dividends!). Volume in CPD was <a href=\"https:\/\/web.tmxmoney.com\/pricehistory.php?qm_symbol=CPD\">valued at $1.7-million<\/a> the highest in the past month, while the <a
