SWNE 0.20
SWNE is a speical reverse split round up play. These special round up reverse split plays can be extremely profitable. The last one was NWNO about one week ago, these bought the shares before the revesse split turned their little gamble from $11 to $1500 in a few days.
"SWNE 1-500 R/S No shareholder will be reduced below 500 shares. N/C to Mariner's Choice International Inc (MCII). "
Bought 500 shares with $100, after the resverse split, because of this special treatment, I SHOULD receive 500 new shares, but the price would be around $70 based on Friday's close. 500 shares x $70 = $35,000. In the worst case, even I sell 500 shares at $1, still make $400 profit. I will take it, worth the $100 gamble. In fact, if you just bought $1 or 1 share, you should still receive 500 new shares, that's a pure lottery ticket play.
Remember, this is a special niche play, not applies to all R/S, you cannot buy it after the ex-date (or after the split), it only applies to the R/S stocks have the round up clause. Read the board - Reverse Split Round up Share Plays:
