RE: signalling the market This shelf was announced in February, so it is not 'news'.
This sell-of was manufactured, I suspect, by some shorts - they built a short position by conning retail investors (especially citi) about the coming 'big' EFT buying, which they then crossed at the close Friday.
Now they shear the suckers.
Then, they'll take it right back up.
The very reason Pretium did this offering filing, and there is not any Financing immenient, is to show the market they are serious about fast tracking Brucejack into production. Pretium hasn't raised any money since the IPO, so you're mistaken, about that too.
Let them play their games, but don't loose your position.
