RE:RE:RE:RE:Not going anywhere soon

RE:RE:RE:RE:Not going anywhere soonIn the absense of short-selling considerations, the market impact of the escrow release on 23 January could arguably be less than that of previous releases.  One could regard selling previously released shares as rational because it would be ahead of other sellers.  However, on the final release, there are no sellers to front-run, since all remaining shares are liberated at the same time.  It's a bit like "sell on the rumour, buy on the news."  Regarding short-selling, if B-shareholders had the ability and right to short, this would neutralise the lock-up, except for stock loan fee.  So if it the deal were structured optimally this would be prohibited, as in director ownership agreements.  How this would be accomplished in this instance is another matter.
