As of the beginning of this afternoon the 8th of July, the arbitrage-gap between the rights and shares of Wavin NV is getting smaller vs. this morning (reference until 12:40). This may be the sign that speculative trading is diminishing with regard to the Rights offering of Wavin NV.
In the sheet we present: • theoretical/hypothetical share and rights price • the actual development and quotes of today (source: euronext) until 12:40 • we compared the theoretical share price in relation with the Rights offering with the actual share price • we only compared Share and Rights price data from same time order-execution data points • a histogram of the arbitrage premium or discount of the trades
Conclusions:
• in all trades there is a discount of the Rights vs the Shares • this morning, most of the trades were executed at the biggest arbitrage gap (up to 8%) • from 11:31 am on, the arbitrage gap declined (at first to 2.65%) • 12:39 pm: 3.47% arbitrage gap
This may be the (first) sign that speculative trading is diminishing with regard to the Rights offering of Wavin NV.
