Russet ! Take a look at the data on this URL.

quote.barchart.com

Its relationship to the common tells us it provides LOUSY leverage. Who wants to buy even a long term, deep o/m warrant when you can buy the common for .40c. However, as a stand-alone piece of paper it is intriguing.

The recent historic volatility has been ~200%. And in the same period its price has fallen 30%-50% . Surely this suggests that gains of similar magnitude could be achieved on a turn around.

Ascendant Copper is presenting at the PDAC I believe. (I recall seeing that Sprott (asset management?) holds a lot of the common).

Caveat Emptor. DD required

Here's a little more academic discussion re ACX.wts. (Great idea this thread; just talk about anything you like !)

When I enter price and strike data into my calculator (Strike $2.50, stock price .41c, wt price .09c). It tells me that the appropriate warrant delta is 29%. So the change in price of the warrant will be equal to 29% of a change in price of a common share. If the stock price doubles by increasing by .41c, the warrant price would increase by .12c (29% of .41c =). Significantly more than more than a double of course.

Another way of looking at it is to say that leverage is 29% * .41/.09 =1.3x This says, if the price of the stock increases by 100% the price of the warrant will increase by 130%. 130% of .09c = a 12c increase.

The point of all this is that those historic volatilities make such changes highly likely.

Let me know if this is of interest please (I could write more. lol)
