This is the reason for the spike of volume of AQN last Friday and dip in price
Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. Announces Pricing of Upsized Public Offering of Common Shares
OAKVILLE, ON, Oct. 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. (TSX/NYSE: AQN) ("APUC" or the "Company") today announced that it has priced an underwritten marketed public offering of 23,000,000 common shares of the Company at a price to the public of US$13.50 per share (the "Offering")..........
The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to partially finance certain of the Company's previously-announced acquisitions, to partially finance the Company's renewable development growth projects, and for general corporate purposes. These public offering are a nuisance but company needs money. About 8.4 million shares were traded on Friday in the USA... if I look at the Canadian stock AQN.TO I see 5.3 million shares traded. In my naive thinking over half of the 23,000,000 have already been traded.... that is a guess because there would be other trading... the offering should be finished by the end of next week.... in the mean time the share price should hover around $13.50 next week.
I don't see this as a negative .
SSW took a NICE leap in price.... this is not a breakout This is just a wild consolidation going on right now.... I expect the price might rise as high as $11.40 before it settles down and the Bollies tighten.
.
BPT may rise it may drop again.... who knows where Oil is going??? Remember there is a healthy dividend coming soon....once we get it then we shall see if we keep the stock. The is the boat anchor for this portfolio
Cohu looks like it may be preparing for a break out.... Nice suggestion Robert...
