Note I said that more in response to a dialouge with patchh in which it seemed to me he was implying that the stock could run up before expirey of the warrants (not totally sure what he meant) but I was just making a theoretical counter-point. Chances of me actually doing that are more realistically near zero.

No idea what others will do... too complicated and too changeable on a day to day for me to second guess or plan anything different in advance.
If our share price runs way up I might even short a small amount of our own stock and cover again... who knows?

look around ! i do not see any 1.5M Wts on the trade book - not since march/april..
then the yanks will B dropping bak in w large bloks approaching expiration...
the warrants have intentionally been diluted in favor of NCI - thats why they held bak on the R/S news - pushed into July...
the Wts are an underlying derivative = Diluted..
what happens to the implied volatility say Dec ?
