GZTC was actually priced to go up 20%. What has been happening is that if an offering is substantially oversubscribed (10-1 today is typical)the underwriters will get verbal commitments from the buyers that they will continue to buy in the aftermarket. If they do not make the commitment they do not get an alocation in the offering. We will likely see the same thing with Celgene which is pricing a follow on in a few weeks. That deal will be massively oversubscribed and the smart money is buying in now in anticipation.

What is truly great about the GZTC offering is that it allows GZTC to get out from the shadow of its parent and for the first time is properly capitalized which will give them much better leverage in negotiating deals with pharma. Quite a while ago you asked for picks that had 100 to 1 potential. GZTC was one of my picks. The stock was at 4 at the time so I still have quite a way to go. Thankfully we are beyond that dastardly floorless convert.
