NEW ARTICLE
Value Divergence
We look at the strange events at Value Convergence (0821) where Melco (0200) is selling its controlling stake at $1.92 before a massive dilutive CB issue at $1.00, a third of which is going to China Fortune (0290). Shareholders should vote against the bond issue, and bond subscribers and their associates should be prohibited from voting any shares they hold.
