Please read what I am writing so you can understand my thoughts. Think of the transaction as TWO seperate trades. You own stock at a discount to the market. In a SEPERATE account, you short the position. If the stock goes up, you cover the LOSING short position with the stock you already have. If the stock goes down, you have two choices - In the SEPERATE short account, you can cover slowley and make some money. If you do this, you STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL position !!!!! It is not sold, traded or anything else. You have simply LEVERAGED your position to make a trade with very little risk. You have a habit of treating the trade as a normal "onshore transaction". You have to think "outside the box" (How is that for beating a management phrase to death!) VERY IMPORTANT !!!!!!!! Now for another thought .... What if Keragin (which is a brokerage firm) sold the stock of the placement to their clients ??? The firm makes money, the clients make money, and now what you are seeing is some of the stock leaking out ???? Could have happened..... We don't know, that's the point.
