I'll also offer a few possible answers. It could be that the investors who very quickly grabbed up NTI in the hope of a quick profit are still trying to sell off large amounts at close to breakeven so they can move on to something else. They possibly do not consider 5%ish to be ok returns on their monies. They presumably do not own CP shares, and holders of those are simply holders by now, with little selling pressure.How come that CP shares are 70 % up compared to NTI while their absolute payout is the same? In case you are right and NTI is a crap, who cares when dividends are OK?
