A or B Shares

[marcus1959]

Last night I received and email for the picks for the Earnings Estimate Monthly Portfolio.  In the picks were RCI (rogers communication) and TCK (Teck Cominco).  If I am reading the buys right, it is saying to buy the A class shares.  I am wondering why.  It is the B shares that trade the most and seem to be cheaper.  Is there an advantage to buying the A's??

Hi,

The choice to put the A's stocks in the portfolio is due to the fact that we do the research on American stocks and then we match them to a Canadian ticker based on the list we publish:

An amelioration would be to verify if the Canadian ticker we choose is the best one when there is more than one that exists.
