WTDEC, OFF TOPIC Re: Farallon. Without knowing for certain, I suspect that they have a short position in LGND stock of approximately 20% of their total long position in the warrants. If I am correct, that would mean a short position of around 380,000 shares of LGND, Leaving them net long a little over 1,550,000 of Ligand's shares via that many net unhedged long warrants. They also seem to believe that at the right differential, the warrants are preferable to the stock.
