Conservative News Channel Newsmax raised $ 75 million on Monday by offering 7.5 million shares at $ 10. This was not technically an opi, an offer was a regulation. Reg a+, as it is called, was established in 2015 by virtue of the job law. It allows small businesses to raise capital, but without submitting to the complete process registration process. The idea was to reduce administrative costs and loads. Issuers must still submit audited financial statements and provide continuous reports. In reg a+, an advisor sells as many actions as possible to the maximum offered. The main approach is to sell to retail investors, in this case it was sold to approximately 30,000 retail investors. The digital offer was the main sales agent. The action opened to $ 14, closed to $ 85 on the first day, closed on Tuesday at $ 233 and quoted around $ 125 on Wednesday at noon. NMAX 5D MOUNTAIN NEWSMAX (NMAX) Why the huge pop? A factor can be what Wall Street calls the “float” or the actions available for trade. Only 7.5 million shares of a total of 128 million totally diluted shares, that is a very small flotation of less than 6%. Nor is it clear if the 7.5 million floated shares were delivered to retail investors and available for trade, if it could not have contributed to the increase in prices. With such a small fraction available for trade, not much could cause a sharp movement in the actions. But the simplest answer can be, do not underestimate the power of a stock of memes. First, there is a community that wants to support alternative means, and they were the main initial buyers of the shares. Secondly, only the fact that you have a great day that pop receives the attention of impulse merchants that increase the actions further. Of course, the impulse also works in the opposite direction, as can be seen on Wednesday.
