Why do you think 51% of the companies shares are available all at once at exactly slightly above market value? How exactly do you think this trade would get completed?
- rchaud 3y agoTo those not in the know, a stock ticker looks like a price tag.
- jjav 3y agoWhen I first started learning about stock markets I got a lot of insight from one comment a friend (who had gone into finance) made to me: the stock market is not a vending machine. There is no set price to buy shares. If you just want to buy 100 shares at the current ask, it'll probably go through (but even that is no guarantee), but the next 100 shares might well not be available at that price anymore.
