Pabrai says he got banned from a Vegas casino for beating blackjack.

His system? Bet small when losing, big when winning.
Cool story.

It's also just that. A story

Reconfirming a quartertly $0.75 dividend to be sustained or grown
(That's $3 per year or 10.7% dividend yield)

Belgian squeeze‐out rules can be funny:

• Majority owner of Exmar holds > 88%, leaving a free float of just ~11.5%
• He tenders at €11.50/share
• To squeeze out, he must reach 95% of shares AND > 90% of the free float needs to tender

= a minority of 1.2% can block the deal

#TIGO Millicom just announced their new capital allocation policy:

$3 regular yearly dividend paid in quarterly increments, to be sustained or grown

On a $25 share price, this is a yield of 12%!

How is this possible?
Because the stock is cheap AF and has a FCF yield of 16%+
