Some intersting thoughts about the Reg S shares, Brad.
However, you forgot to factor in the "Shorty" function into
your equation.
If those 845,000 short shares had to be covered in a hurry,
the Reg S shares mean very little.
I think if we get any kind of positive news soon from the company,
given a bottoming gold market, you'll see IPM back at the 5-6 level
pretty soon.
Maybe by the end of the year ???

Brad,

I don't understand this reg S stuff but it doesn't make sense to me. Somebody came in and started buying. If resistance is due to the reg S shares being converted at a profit then somebody believes that they are making a mistake because we still had some good buying at the end of the day.

Brad: Actually, the reg s rarely weait until their shares are free trading, they short against the box, and when their shares become free trading they deliver the shares against the short position if the market went against them, or they cover (usually the case) at lower prices caused by their short selling soaking buying power from the public.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours, and all other threaders.
