FAQ
Why Bearish?
While raising capital can support growth, dilution from new shares may deter investors. Historical examples show stock prices often drop following large dilutive offerings.
How important is it?
The announcement of a large share offering often signals a company's need for capital, which can be perceived negatively. The stock's long-term innovations might counterbalance immediate investor sentiments but this event drives initial concern.
Why Short Term?
Investors may react quickly to the dilution effects post-offering, affecting stock in the near term. Similar situations in biotech often lead to immediate price fluctuations.
