    PDN managed to raise $300 million overnight, through convertible bonds. The conversion price is $US5.665 per share, which should have declared a value to the market.

    The fact that the takeup was completed overnight demonstrates confidence in the company. The company can now settle all its 2011 bonds, and have $50 million left over for working capital.

    I have absolutely NO idea why the market is reacting negatively - no matter how hard I look into it and think about it, I really can't see a negative aspect to it at all...

    Can anyone else enlighten me as to why this was a bad thing?

    I admit to being completely stumped by the market reaction and selldown?!?!?!

    Especially with the uranium spot price shooting up - it's now up to $52.50/lb
