RE:RE:Warrants There are over 300 million shares on a fully diluted basis and gaining a big chunk would be expensive. There are more than 60 million tradable warrants. For purposes of filing with the regulator I don't think warrants represent shares until exercised so ...
At what price would I guarantee giving up my warrants - when the warrants traded at the same price as the shares, (In reality I would probably start moving back to the shares if the spread narrowed significantly).
So someone comes along and picks up 40+ million warrants before going after the shares.
if they started by going after the shares first they have to start reporting their position when their share count reached something in the 12 to 16 million range.

The warrants are really a special case, I'm sure they trade differently for each stock. Since TLT has a large % of float in tradable warrants, that really aren't easy to trade in and out of, I don't expect them to be where we see the big daily moves. Shares are much easier to trade, perhaps we will get options at some point when SP has moved up a lot ;-) ??
I like how much time value they have, the underlying is at .35c so they should be worth 0, right? So all of this 'value' is time value. They should track SP penny for penny from this point and higher, though more/less volatility will also effect them. So 2:1 ratio is going to go bye bye very soon IMO.

Which brings me to another thought - if anyone was going to take a run at the company taking a sizeable position in the warrants would seem to be the logical first step before going after the shares.
Bid up the warrants for a few days then back away and watch the warrant price fall as shareholders take profits by selling the warrants and buying back into the shares.
i wouldn't say that is happening right now but someday the warrants might be the canary in the mine; an early indicator of someone taking a big bite of the company.
