Comments on the rights offering?
I'd like to hear what folks have to say about the rights offering which expires Tuesday AM (so the last chance to exercise is Monday 29 October 2001).
Unless the rights include some restriction on selling, it would seem to be a no-brainer to flip them for a short-term gain. So I guess my question pertains to whether its sensible to hold longer-term. Is CEL currently a "buy" at $2.30/ADR for the longer-term investor?
Also, has anyone seen the rights offering? Are there any hidden restrictions or is it just a straight offer to sell ADR's at $2.30 each?
Thanks,
