I will take your explanation as fact. Thanks
are you suggesting the NYSE overrode NCT's stated shareholder of record date of may 6th? If so why hasn't NCT rescinded the May 6th date and made it clear you can buy NCT right up to the distribution date and still get spinoff shares of NRZ?
So you can buy shares of NCT right up until the distribution date and still get the spinoff shares?
If that is right, how does the may 6th shareholder of record apply?
"The distribution will be made on or about May 15, 2013 (the “Distribution Date”) to Newcastle stockholders of record (“Newcastle Record Holders”) as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 6, 2013 (the “Record Date”). "
Sorry, but I'm still missing something.
as of 5pm est yesterday to get the NRZ spinoff shares when issued around the 15th of May. So how is it that NCT is trading up today? I assume I'm not understanding something as I see anyone buying NCT today is not going to get the spinoff shares of NRZ. That makes for very high priced NCT At 12 bucks +. Like I said I must be missing something.....anyone??
According to the response I got from Ameritrade, you can't buy NRZ.w or NCT.w online. You need to call in your order.
NCT.W and NRZ.W are being priced by the market. Old NCT's price is reflecting that. imo
Yep, I see nrz.w trading also, but ameritrade shows both as invalid symbols??
Guess I get to watch as I can't buy.
well at least NCT.W is trading somewhere , but not Ameritrade as they show it as an invalid symbol.
On the site I watch stock quotes it shows NCT.W trading quite briskly with over 660k shares traded with a low of 4.64, a high of 5.11 and current price of 4.83.
just trying to figure out for sure what is trading. I assume it is NCT without the rights to NRZ. Can anyone verify this?
that took me by surprise! glad to see the news.
will be out may 3rd
agreed, I know it did dip after the pre14-A was filed on the 12th.
The Sec PRE-14A was filed on 04/12 with the same information about increasing the shares which makes this old news. Most shareholders were aware of this almost 2 weeks ago.
Brand new I.D. for pieslice, how many does that make?
sure, nothing worse than trying to decipher sec filings.
Those are options to purchase shares recently awarded to the CEO and CFO. Those options from what I see can't be exercised until 2015.
I guess "you're" the main reason Brown University didn't pick up the option to use the "What Can Brown Do For You" ad campaign.
A smart investor would actually see it is not an additional billion new shares. They are proposing an additional authorization of 500 million shares to the 600 million authorized in 2002 which brings it to a total of 1.1 billion shares. Having the ability to sell a total of 1.1 billion shares is not dilution. If you are as smart as you think you are you would know the spinoff will cause a basic halving of the current PPS. That means when they want to do an SPO post spinoff it is likely it will take 2 shares to raise 10 dollars rather than the 1 share it would take prior to the spinoff, hence the need to double the shares authorized.
The filing today is an amendment to the 1/7/13 filing. Not even sure what they amended, but the fact they did indicates to me they are ready to go.
todays filings seem to indicate the spinoff is close.
