Some random thoughts on articles that caught my attention in the last month. Note that I try to write notes on articles immediately after reading them, so there can be a little overlap in themes if an article grabs my attention early in the month and is similar to an article that I like later in the month.
CANO is one of the most exciting deSPACs out there, IMO. Regarding 10% of shareholders cashing out– 95% of these proceeds went to the financial sponsors. It's not surprising InTandem would cash some out, and they still hold a big position. And just 5% was to the management team, and I quote , "which is using the money to pay off loans, primarily taken by Marlow to start the company 10 years ago." Max Bid Marlow loves betting on himself, haha.
Regarding merging at a lower price– remember, the SPAC market was very tight when CANO was pricing their PIPE in Oct/Nov. Plus CANO has done a lot of executing in the past year, raising guidance multiple times.
Some things and ideas: September 2021
