Holders of Stock at 12/31/12
Saw something interesting on the shareholders of record. On the Nasdaq site, under ownership you will see that it says that Blackrock had about 3M shares. On Jan 30th, a 13G was filed that says Blackrock was now over a 5% owner of Astex with about 6.7M shares. The filing was dated 1/30/13 for fiscal year ended 12/31. Does that mean that Blackrock bought about 3.7M shares in Jan 13 or is one of these reporting entities wrong? Thinking that Nasdaq is wrong.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
