RE: RE: Warrants and Idiots

RE: RE: Warrants and IdiotsI do believe that someone had mentioned to buy the warrants because they were cheaper than the shares.  Cheaper is not necessarily a better thing.  The leverage numbers you quote for Yamana and Mercator are the "leverage numbers" mentioned in the Canadian Stock Warrant Value Numbers report.  Those figures simply are the common share price divided by the warrant share price.  Those numbers by themselves are meaningless.  It totally excludes the impact of the strike price.  By leverage I am referring to what happens to the price of the warrant if the common share price lets say doubles.  It is this leverage factor one would typically assess when deciding to buy the common shares or the warrants of a company or when comparing different warrants.  Bottom line is I am buying the common shares not the warrants of Mercator based on current pricing.
