Whilst we're on conspiracy theories...I posted this back in April:
<<<"274m CTPO options out there, at an exercise price of 16c = just over 20% of the company if they are all taken up.
Current buy price is 3.7c, so 19.7c per share if you were to want the shares & exercise now. Was down at 2.5c for a while before last week, but with pretty high volume compared with normal - approx 50m traded in the last two weeks, at an average 'buy in cost' of approx 18.5c/share (but only costing 2.5c/share then).
Now whilst buying into 10% of the company at 8.5c/share would give a good chunk of control, if the buyer's expectation is for a very healthy move up over the next few days/weeks/months (i.e. SP more than 18.5c, CTPO in the money?) then buying CTPO in bulk would seem like a fairly good way to get 'control' of a large number of shares on the cheap - and/or make a huge profit also.
Is there such a thing as a register of options holders?! ;-)
Or I may just still be enjoying that Friday afternoon beer too much...
Either way, CTPO looks like a very, very good buy on open.">>>
So....is there such a thing as a register of options holders?
