I was think of a scenario, some fact, some unlikely but possible scenarios


Facts

1. A2M and BAL price currently move in concert for short spikes; poor news from bal causes short term weakness in A2m price due to investors getting jittery about the general state of IF sales

Today is an example

Possible scenario

2. Those with inside knowledge on these announcements from bal, could trade A2M risk free; short it when overall IF market doubted, then long it once investors treat the companies as seperate entities.

Think of the cash involved

For example the trading halt today in bal gives the fear of further falls in bal and this is affecting A2m, which is nearly a given, and will create doubt until they release. Thus bals management would know that a trading halt and the statement therein would create this situation. However all transactions related to bal by management are on public record, not so for A2M.

Given bal managements recent trading activity, they dont look to be the most ethical

Call me paranoid, but this is a low risk way to make cash, which is untraceable by ASIC
