FAQ

Why Bullish?

The opportunity to trade shares and rights separately often creates liquidity, which can drive up demand and price for Class A shares. Historically, such separations lead to bullish sentiment as investors seek to capitalize on new trading opportunities.

How important is it?

The ability to separate trading units into shares and rights can significantly impact market dynamics and investor interest, which often influences stock price profoundly.

Why Short Term?

The imminent trading separation effective October 2, 2025, suggests a likely short-term price movement due to immediate market reactions. Past separations of SPAC units typically result in short-lived price fluctuations as new trading dynamics unfold.
