HEB has quietly filed a proxy to increase auth shares to 350Mil, from 200Mil (as if they weren´t enough to cover the placement with currently 85M out) Of course the tourists didn´t notice so they still try to buy the dip. It is dated May 26th - we aren´t there yet. Perhaps it slipped out early -g-.
We are possibly on the other side of the vig. below, 1.40..
