Moses, I'm no chartist, so obviously I know nothing about shares. But I'm guessing USA will drop about 30% next Thursday or Friday.

Call it a hunch. :D

(and yes I hope I am wrong, but I wont be)

Re: USA - UraniumSA

Question:

Comsec shows USA as XB today and shares have gone down 10cents - yet record date for bonus options is 18 Jan - so still 3 days to go...

If I buy USA now do I still get bonus options??
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

maybe, BUT remember that your holding has to be on register and it is three day clearing time from comsec to be placed on company register. i would have guessed yesterday was the last day to be on.

They went ex today, if you buy today you do NOT get the bonus options.

Ohh today is the record day.

And only down about 20%. That is good, very good.

I'm wrong, and very happy about it!! :p:

No today is the Ex day (Ex-entitlement), so anyone buying today or after today, does not get the entitlement. The record date is next Thurs 18/1. There is usually a 4 trading day lag between the EX date and record date.

Yep today is the day it drops though, so I'm happy with only a 10c loss to be honest, I expected much more.

Will anyone sell any USA shares over the next week? If so why would they be so silly? :confused:
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

I bought some on the 9th and some on the 12th through Etrade. Does this mean I screwed up and the ones I bought on the 12th wont get bonu options? :banghead:
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

Sorry if this seems like a silly/dumb or even moronic question....
What will holders of the new options be doing?
selling, holding?
I have no idea :confused:
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

i think some holders are only holders for bonus options and therefore will dump when options are cleared.

this is reflected in the share price dropping when it went ex entitlement.

similar to when a sp drops when going ex dividend. this is because a lot of ppl hold for dividends/bonuses then dump after they clear.
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

Well it's ex-entitlement (still ;) ) and the share rocketed back up to 48cents ::thumbsup::

"this is because a lot of ppl hold for dividends/bonuses then dump after they clear."

yea some people do that but they have to be quick, otherwise with all the people selling their shares the price could drop more than what they get out of the dividends, (taking into consideration franking credits too). the brokerage could make up a sizable proportion of the costs of doing it if theres not a lot of shares being traded too.
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

When do we get the options given to us?

I use Commsec, will they just appear soon?
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

My options appeared today in my Commsec account. I got them for free and they are worth 18c!!

WooHooOOO!! :xyxthumbs
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

It's been a pretty rocky road since options time.

Is that resistance at 0.34? (unless the ALP come to the rescue this weekend!)

Re: USA - UraniumSA

Considering the SP's resilience when the options were distributed I think it's doing rather well. No real rises but there hasn't been much announcements made either to garner interest/drive a re-rating of the SP.
 
Re: USA - UraniumSA

What is it with this stock over the past week? Looks like it may continue for a while, too.

They have a JV with SRZ. Let's hope that produces some results - but will be long term.

Anyone have any insights into this dip?

Re: USA - UraniumSA

As a relative newbie to shares, can anyone out there explain to me the pro's and con's of the Archer Exploration priority share offer made to USA shareholders - which have caused the hyperactivity in sp over the past ten days.

What's in it for me as a USA shareholder to accept this priority offer?

What is likely to happen on the 14 August when the Archer (AXE) IPO kicks off? Is it likely that the 0.20 shares will drop significantly in value as immediate profits are taken? I think I have seen this happen recently.

I got into USA initially as a speculative share with a view to waiting long term for shares to achieve value. Will I be compounding my risk or hedging it by venturing into Archer?

I'm anxious to share the opinions of other USA shareholders - not simply seeking their recommendations, it goes without saying. I acknowledge I have to rely on my own research.

I'd also be interested in feedback on these questions. The priority offer for AXE IPO shares for USA shareholders closes on Friday July 20. After reading the prospectus etc. the prospects seem pretty good, so I've decided to take up a holding in AXE. Anyone else has any thoughts on AXE? regards YN.
