Mirach/CNA restrictions, Cosco chart

Announcements
 
Feel free to comment here!! :)
 
Opportunities
 
Mirach Energy (C68) and CNA (5GC) are on UOBKH small cap stocks watch list. The rules are as follows:
(a) Single Exposure per Counter
- Not more than $50K (if clients' approved trading limits are less than $150K)
- Not more than $100K (if clients' approved trading limits are more than $150K)
(b) Cumulative Exposure per Client
- Not more than $300K
Comments: Not positive. This usually reduces the demand for the stock and so may have negative effect on stock price. Short-sellers may wish to beware of risks of a short squeeze (too many shorts in the market that a little buying causes frantic covering of shorts, resulting in upswing in price).
On the other hand, due to settlement mechanics, the overhang and restrictions may be lifted in a week or so. Therefore, watch out for any possible return of interest next week.
