The RHM Warrant
Survey
I'm sure many of
you (even
subscribers in
some cases)
still have many
questions about
warrants. Where
do 'they' come
from and how
long have 'they'
been around?
I get this
questions all of
the time. As
confident as I
am in the
warrant arena, I
am always amazed
at the lack of
knowledge among
the public and
professionals
alike.
A few years back
I had the
opportunity to
have dinner with
Martin Weiss,
www.MoneyandMarkets.com
and
www.WeissResearchIssues.com
to discuss my
then new
business,
Precious Metals
Warrants.
One of the first
questions that
Martin asked me
was, "Dudley,
what was the
name of the
service back in
the 1970's that
dealt with
warrants?"
Of course Martin
being a savvy
professional
already knew the
answer to this
question and it
was a test to
see the extent
of my knowledge
and history
about warrants.
Yes, the answer
was very easy
for me as I
actually used
this service
back in the
1970's myself.
The RHM
Warrant Survey
by Sidney Fried
actually dates
back to the
1940's and into
the early
1980's.
I have purchased
as many of the
books and
materials as
possible of
Sidney's work on
warrants and
have
incorporated
many of the
basics of his
and several
other pioneers
on warrants into
our
Learning Center.
The concept of
warrants is so
simple I don't
understand why
investors try to
make it so
difficult. Think
simple, think
about call
options. We
all know about
call options
don't we?
As a practical
matter the main
difference is
that warrants
will trade
similar to
common shares,
whether as call
options will be
traded on the
Chicago Board
Option Exchange,
(CBOE).
The main
objective of
both call
options and
warrants is the
same: to
increase your
leverage.
The main
difference
is all about the
Time Factor:
call options are
usually for
measured with a
life in weeks or
months while
warrants are
measured in
terms of years,
and there is one
warrant which
does not expire
until 2017.
Pretty Cool!
So
readers/subscribers
let's always
remember to keep
this simple and
for those new to
warrants we
encourage you to
visit our
Learning Center
and discover the
'secrets' of
warrants and why
Martin and I
love this game.
