He means his leverage to money.. which is correct. An "underpriced" warrant has many times the gain leverage of the stock as its price rises 1 to 1 with the stock often, which as many knows gives it greater leverage. The trick is to find an underpriced warrant which thanks to Black Scholes, rarely exists today, and also to find one where the volatility is high far from the expiry price. This may occur in some bull markets which take off in advance of a stock's price. Lately we have seen high inertia in the market due to a long price malaise due an early rise, and a volatile metals market. People are hoping it catches up.

The CDN flow thru market, bound to boost a lot of juniors this fall, is unrelated to this metals price pressure thing that a number of people on these threads are giving significance.

>>Now, say K goes to $1,000 a share...

As a warrant progresses deeper in-the-money, or as expiry approaches, the delta approaches 100%. When the delta is 100%, your idea of leverage is valid. But at the strike, where it is now, the delta is only ~50%.

True tyke, we are saying the same thing. You are saying it in a more sophisticated manner and I am giving the street version-lol.
