Short lessons on dilution, float, and risk. This is not advice.
- Dilution
What dilution means: new shares, a smaller stake, and where to read it in a filing. Not advice.
- Float
Float is the number of shares the public can trade. It is neither today's volume nor the authorized capital. Not advice.
- Share offerings
An offering is a share sale stated in a filing: a fixed price, or a sale into the market. Not advice.
- Warrants
A warrant is a right to buy shares later, at a stated price. Exercise can create shares. Not advice.
- ATM program
An ATM lets the company sell shares into the market, at the price of the moment, under a shelf. Not advice.
- S-1, S-3, and 424B
S-1 and S-3 register shares. A 424B is the supplement that states a sale. The form name is not enough. Not advice.
- Reverse split
A reverse split cuts the share count and raises the price per share by a ratio. The company's value does not change from the ratio alone. Not advice.
- Reading a premarket gap
A premarket gap is the distance between the premarket and the prior close. Read it with volume and time. Not advice.
- Size and risk
The share count comes from the dollar risk and the distance from entry to stop. A short borrow fee is extra. Not advice.
