I thought the 362m placing shares hit the market a couple of days ago. Info still shows 4.2m shares in issue and mcap £334m.
What's going to happen to the 362m? Well, they are not being bought at 8.2p to be sold sub-8, that is for sure. The vast maj I suspect will have found a sticky hands home, not to be traded. For the mo, the sp is being held at pretty much the placing price. Yet pretty much everybody knows that fmv is in the teens.
So, that leaves us with the shorters, who have to buy back at some point. A Newcrest release stating delay in commencement of production could take sp a tad lower, and trigger a buying spree at mid-7. Imo, the BFS changes everytning, and we'll see full funding through equity/debt finance right through to 2024 Hav production + further drilling elsewhere.
In the circumstances, anything in the 7s must surely be ideal topping-up territory and a surefire money doubler by the end of the year.
