This isn't my strong point in trading. It's not taught in any trading school I've attended nor have I had the pleasure to experience it. I've only seen it a few times & was so upset most of them because I caught the breakout & decided to watch rather than invest.
The last one I don't remember the ticker but it was trading at $2, I was watching strange movement then EOD Verizon announced they acquired the company & the pps was instantly adjusted to over $12. Was I pissed? I was pacing mad because I had my finger on the trigger and thought naw,... I better see what's causing this first.
I believe HAL's issue is 62B so as for dilution, it's so negligible and for something so small they won't have to ask permission of shareholders. It will just happen with a PR either at 7AM or 3:58 PM & the more I kick this around trying to shoot holes into this theory, the more sense it makes.
