Corporate Action McEwen Mining Inc


Martinius

Question

On 28/07/2022 there were two trades shown as Corporate-Action for my McEwen Mining Inc shares. One was a sell action selling my total quantity of old shares with no price. The other was a buy action buying back approximately 10% fewer new shares, again at no cost. I think this was for a consolidation to arrive at a situation where I had 1 new share for every 10 of the old shares. On 19/08/2022 there was what appears to be a tidy up operation to account for 7 of the old shares which did not equate to a whole new share.

I assume the mathematics of this worked OK. However it has left me with the situation where my profit or loss for the McEwen shares does not show up properly. It shows the market value of these shares to be practically the same as the profit, which it would do if I bought them at no cost.

How can I adjust the figures to give me the real profit or loss of these shares in particular, and my portfolio as a whole?

Hi @Martinius

Unfortunately we cannot discuss account queries on the IG community platform, as this is a public platform. I have sent you an email regarding your position. 

If a company performs a stock consolidation your original position will be closed at your original opening level and size, ensuring no profit or loss is realized. A new position will then be opened to reflect the ratio of the consolidation. The book cost would have to be edited to reflect the true cost. You can also edit your book cost on the platform. 

All the best, OfentseIG

    • Sorry, I didn't get it... What's Dual investment? 
    • The crypto market appears to be showing signs of recovery, with significant improvements in the Sharpe Ratios of Bitcoin, BGB, and Ethereum, according to an article published on Friday.  The Sharpe Ratio, a measure used to understand the return of an investment compared to its risk, has seen a notable increase for both cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin's Sharpe Ratio has risen from -2.4 to 0.68, while Ethereum and BGB have also experienced a similar uptrend. This change signifies higher returns at lower risk, which is expected to attract more investors to the crypto market. In addition to the improved Sharpe Ratios, increased network activity and trading volume as shown on CEXs like Bitget, Binance, and a few DEXs are suggesting a healthier market state. The current trading prices of Bitcoin, reflect this overall positive market sentiment. As of Friday, Bitcoin was trading at $27,069.73, BGB at $0.454 and Ethereum at $1,677.89. These developments are significant as they indicate reduced risk in the crypto market. The increase in the Sharpe Ratios for Bitcoin, BGB, and Ethereum suggests that these cryptocurrencies are becoming less risky investments, which could potentially lead to an influx of new investors into the market.  Could this rise in Sharpe Ratios coupled with increased network activity and trading volume point towards a recovering and less risky crypto market?
