    correct me if im wrong, to find the after rights issue share price in simple terms is this:

    before rights issue:
    share price: $73
    shares on issue: 1b
    market cap: $73b

    after rights issue:
    share price: ?
    shares on issue: (21/40)*1b = 1.5b
    money raised(21/40)*1b*$28 = $15b
    new market cap: $73b+$15b = $88b

    $88b = 1.5b* (new share price)

    new share price = $58
    which it roughly was.

    cant explain the drop since then.
    i think ill buy.
