The $5 TGB barrierThis barrier is real. There is a different set of rules on the US side for owning stocks priced at under $5 per share. Lots of hoops for brokers to jump through to qualify the buyers. Also, some funds will not own companies priced under $5 a share. It is stupid, but it is real.
If Taseko were to reverse split at say 1-3, I believe it would open up the stock to many new investors, especially institutuions. However, the optics of a reverse split are somewhat negative.
If this stock price does approach $5 (US TGB) over the next 6 months or a year, watch it take off as it crosses that threshhold. It would make sense for you that are north of the border to follow TGB as well as TKO.
