RE:How to tell??
WOW .........if we would know that, all people on this board would be happy ( They would sell prior to the announcement and buy next day). Ounce announcement comes out for overnight offering, you can't sell anymore ( transactions are stop till next morning). Since both Brompton and Quadravest don't do this on any specific month or timing, you can't predict. Of course following morning you can buy shares from your broker (RBC) like you normally do. If market is steady you can be able to buy some at -5% or so. . You can check news for previous offering dates and what was the reaction on following days on a chart.They normally do offering when price / market is upwards so they can get a better buy-in from banks that will put them in the market. Presently Mr Market itself provides lower prices but who knows if it won't get better.
