Hello all...I don't normally post, but I thought This might be useful to some of you. I had an online chat with E-Trade about the rights offering. Here's my conversation. I changed the names for security.
Question:
I just saw the rights offering for one of my securitues (GIGL). I'm trying to figure out how it is fulfilled and how much will
it cost per share.
ET-Agent:
Thank you for contacting E*TRADE. My name is ET-Agent. I will be happy to assist you today.
ET-Agent:

JB:

ET-Agent:
Thanks for waiting with me. I'm still reviewing
JB:

ET-Agent:
I'll need to reach out to another department. It looks like the rights have been deemed worthless, but I need clarification
JB:
ok. I can wait
ET-Agent:
Thanks. I have someone on the line, he will double check for me
ET-Agent:
Only because at least for me, there are 2 updates on March 5th. And I want to be confident on the most recent on, to be
sure that you get the right info
ET-Agent:
I appreciate you waiting with me
JB:

ET-Agent:

get them in the new few days
ET-Agent:
I would anticipate Friday or Monday, the corporate actions department would have additional information

ET-Agent:
It is not worthless. Just unconfirmed data.
