Hi,
Regarding takeover potential - You are right in so far as the Share register is wide open, but it would take a very special kind of bidder to be interested, because Alcoa owns 60% of the AWAC venture even though they don't own any AWC (AWC owns 40% of AWAC. So Alcoa would by far, be the most logical suiter. Anyone else would have a lot to work through and would be buying control of something they wouldn't have control of.
Just FYI - The 2 largest shareholders in AWC are Perpetual (PPT) and Shroders, both with just over 5% each.
But here's the kicker Just under 5% of the entire AWC stock is shorted at this time! And that doesn't account for Shorts that aren't reported and derivative positions.
However, we might have to be patient. Its a good one IMO.
