Brookfield Shares Jump 5% on Strong First-Quarter Revenue Report

This positive earnings report contradicts a Reuters forecast from May 12th that predicted a substantial decrease in quarterly revenue for Brookfield. The news precedes a 6-K filing later today which is expected to detail these strong Q1 results, including increased distributable earnings.
