RE: Another day closer.29 Aug 2024 11:34
Investor, if we assume this seller from the placing took themselves right up to the reporting threshold, that would be around 45m shares. On a normal day, they've been managing to clear out about 2m shares without completely trashing the price. Even at that level, it would/has taken them a whole month to clear out, so to delay for another couple of weeks, I don't think that would fit in with their plan of trading this and getting in and out quickly.
On the day it spiked to 3.5p, there was very heavy selling. Very similar blocks to what was seen previously and I mentioned on the day they were on course to sell around 9-10m of shares, so they did take advantage of it.
The fact is, there are II's/large investors who took up a lot of shares in the 2p placing and will want to clear out of here, and they can't do that in one go without destroying the SP. Their orders have to be worked over a period of time.
