The Warrant—Its Powers and Its Hazards

1963 Financial Analysts Journal 3 citations

Abstract

Since a warrant has no tangible equity in the balance sheet nor earning power (in fact no value other than that which investors assign to its right or privilege to buy) it moves just as other types of securities, in a free auction market, with its fortunes firmly linked to the general prospects and price movements of its common stock. Usually, its movement sharply accentuates both the advances and declines of its related stock because of its leverage which, under certain conditions, can be enormous.
