My personal favorite is SJT, up 144% from August 2003. The Canadian trusts have some withholding taxes for non-Canadians which results in more filing at USA tax time. The Canadian trusts do pay higher yields, but also subject to exchange rate fluctuations. Haven't done a item by item effect, though. A recent article at Yahoo did say the Canadian trusts are better managed overall than the USA trusts.
Cash is King until further notice!!!
My comments on companies are usually my opinion of long term success (years). The PPS may go up or down greatly in the meantime depending on the number of greedy suckers with money.
