Your final conclusion is correct smickster and any of us can sell at any time.
I know Nick said e few years ago "Asset value, not Market value" and indicated SOLG was worth at least £1.
He seems to have lowered his sights and especially in view of DGR's troubles might accept 59p
Indeed it is not unusual for the SP to go above the first or any offer, based on speculation, and Bob Sangha has previous....
In May 2021 Noront shares were 21 cents. Wyloo bid 31.5c (all prices in CDN)
In July BHP bid 55c/share
By October Wyloo had 37% of the shares and made an all c ash bid of 70c
Which the Noront Board accepted.
Not to be outdone, BHP countered immediately at 75c
In December Wyloo made a knockout bid of 110c/share...double what the Noront Board had originally agreed and 250% above Wyloo's first bid.
Sangha was advisor to Wyloo, owned by Andrew Forrest...
Andrew Forrest also owns Fortescue Metals...
