Thank you. That's similar to my guesstimate of new paper to old% ratio just based on quick numbers I ran a few months ago. WOLF also made for an interesting zombie momo trade earlier this month but certainly not for my money! :-)

Don't own WOLF shares but unsure I understand your last sentence. The shares from Friday are not the same as the new shares today. The brokers should have adjusted for whatever the ratio is and doubt they'd let anything slip by them as you suggest. When I was still a boy plunger I picked off some of my brokers in daytrades and options. This was before outsourcing order flow was automatic and they still had in-house trading bullpens Trust me, they'd quickly call up and read the riot act if a trade went against them too fast. Was also early online days. For bigger orders I called them in and recorded on old-school cassette tapes. :-) Then the joke was on them. One of the top traders at one broker was closer to my age, we became friends and still talk to him after almost 30 years. Tempus fugit.
