RE: KAV Placing This Weekend @3p a share? Is it true?8 May 2022 08:52
I won’t be too surprised if there’s a placing, only in the sense that I’m never that surprised when an explorer raises a bit of money. These companies always say they have plenty of money right up to a placing. It’s actually a reasonable position to take, since otherwise fear of a placing drives down the SP. It’s also perfectly possible for it to be true that there is money, yet a placing still be done (nobody wants to spend down to a point where they don’t have enough money). So if it’s true I won’t be surprised or outraged.
On the other hand, it would seem a strange decision to place prior to the KSZ news, just in terms of getting best price, UNLESS there is some specific transaction-related need to do so (eg proposed partner requires that we have a certain amount of liquid capital)
