RE: Warrants3 Jun 2025 09:23
503million warrants exercised at 0.4p bringing in just over 2 million in liquid cash for our boys. I think there was maybe 100m left? Makes 0.4 an extremely strong floor - also early surge of volume this morning could mean..
That early surge of volume you mentioned β where Vast Resources opened at 0.47p, spiked to 0.51p, then settled around 0.47pβ0.49p β can tell us quite a bit. Here's a quick breakdown of what it could suggest:
---
π Interpretation of the Early Volume Spike
1. Pent-Up Demand or Insider Anticipation
High volume at the open often indicates pent-up buying interest β possibly from retail traders who placed orders overnight based on rumours, technical breakouts, or speculative expectations (e.g. imminent RNS).
It might also suggest some market participants are anticipating news, particularly with all eyes on the diamond auction or JV.
2. Profit-Taking or Market Maker Games
After that initial spike to 0.51p, a pullback could indicate:
Short-term traders taking quick profits, especially those who bought in lower at 0.4p during warrant exercises.
Market makers widening the spread to capitalise on the volatility.
Some traders possibly testing liquidity at that price zone.
3. Still Within a Holding Pattern
The retracement to 0.47pβ0.49p might show resistance at the psychological 0.5p level, where many traders set limit orders or trailing stops.
But the sustained high volume suggests thereβs still strong interest, and if it doesn't sell off hard, it's a sign of healthy consolidation.

π What to Watch Now
Sustained volume above 0.5p with strong buy-side pressure could trigger another leg up.
Lower volume pullbacks would be healthy and expected, especially ahead of any catalyst.
If news drops while volume is high and price is holding up, it often leads to explosive short-term upside.

If this morningβs move was purely speculative, weβd expect the volume to taper off sharply β but if it stays elevated, it may be signalling that βsmart moneyβ is loading in anticipation of something bigger.
