Amazon
You've probably heard the origins of Amazon by now. Jeff Bezos left his cushy gig on Wall Street and moved to Seattle to sell books online from his garage in 1994. By 1996, Amazon had sales that reached $15.7 million and $147.8 million in 1997. Needless to say, people were intrigued
Then, by the end of the decade, Amazon wasn't as promising as it once seemed. Despite having revenues of $1.6 billion in 1999, Amazon still managed to lose $719 million. Things didn't get better in 2000, when it was found that Amazon had just around "$350 million of cash on hand," despite raising billions of dollars.

Jeff Bezos finally turned a profit in 2003, which was nine years after being founded and seven years after going public.

The IPO was @ $1.50 and after seven years reached $42
(year 1= $7.50, yr 2= $64, yr3= $53.5, yr4= $14.75, yr 5= $17, yr6= $33, yr7= $42)

The dilution, when it comes, will only really affect the share price at the time of dilution, and that is some way off down the line. (And it won't be @ 6p then !!)
There are many other factors that will affect it before then, one of the main ones being FOMO, methinks, so hold on to your hats as the roller coaster is about to start.

Had a word with Nostradamus and he said that you really shouldn't be investing in shares if you can't work out CGT yourself !!
Just saying....
.... don't shoot the messenger !!!

Guarantor loans will only be a small part of Amigo2.0's product portfolio.....
there could still be a limited market if accompanied with a %rate reduction!!
Amigo2.0's lending criteria will need to be watertight across the board.
Also.....their inhouse 'clever barrister' will need to ensure that all future contracts are 'CMC-proof'

Guy.... on the other hand, you could top up at these rock bottom prices.....
sell on the speculative rise.....
bank the profits to use in the rights issue !!!

'Fell out' !!
My wife would say " if only !!"
