BC HOW ARE IPO ALLOTMENTS MADE
Saved by @robinson1rn

Have you ever wonder why you aren't getting any allotments in IPOs?

Here's how IPOs are allotted.

A thread🧵

 Once all the bids are collected & the IPO closes, it is the responsibility of the Registrar and Transfer agent (RTA) to finalize the allotment of shares. The RTA follows the rules laid down by SEBI in "General Information Document for Investing in Public Offers."
In the Retail category, if there is oversubscription (aka the demand for the allotment of shares is more than the actual number of shares reserved for this particular category), then allotment happens via the draw of lots method. Let us try to understand this using an example.
Assume a company offers 1000 shares via IPO, 10% earmarked for retail category, i.e. 100 shares. After the bidding window, RTA collates all the information. The lot size is 5 shares. Retail can bid between 1 to 5 lots.
The company receives various bids across different lot sizes; here is the breakup. A total of 2850 shares applied, which means the retail category is oversubscribed by 28.5X (2850/100).
RTA's main objective is to allot a min. of 1 lot to the maximum number of people. Also, RTA will try their best to avoid fractional shares and minimize odd lot allotment from happening.
The RTA calculated the ‘allotment ratio’ by dividing available shares by applied shares, i.e. 100/2850 = 0.035088.
Going by the above example, 100 applicants have applied for 1 lot, i.e. 100 people applying for 5 shares each = 500 shares. RTA, multiplies this by allotment ratio i.e 500 * 0.035088 = 17.5
Since 17.5 is an odd number, they round this off to the nearest multiple of the lot size, i.e. 15. Hence 15 shares or 3 lots. This means, out of the 100 applicants, only 3 people will get the allotment of 1 lot each.
Now, 75 applicants have applied for 2 lots or 750 shares ( 75 * 5 * 2). Multiplying this with allotment ratio of 0.035088, we get 750 * 0.035088 = 26.315 or 30 shares. In terms of lots, it is 6 lots. Or 3 applicants will get 2 lots each from the 75 applicants.
You do the same math for different categories, and 100 shares get distributed.

Ivor Cummins has been wrong (or lying) almost entirely throughout this pandemic and got paid handsomly for it.

He has been wrong (or lying) so often that it will be nearly impossible for me to track every grift, lie, deceit, manipulation he has pulled. I will use...


... other sources who have been trying to shine on light on this grifter (as I have tried to do, time and again:


Example #1: "Still not seeing Sweden signal versus Denmark really"... There it was (Images attached).
19 to 80 is an over 300% difference.

Example #2 - "Yes, I'm comparing the Noridcs / No, you cannot compare the Nordics."

I wonder why...

1/ Productivity tip: when I keep procrastinating on something I often trick myself by saying, "ok just work on it for the next 20 minutes" or some short period of time, "and then you can chill/relax guilt free" and give myself some treat (sugar, netflix, etc)

2/ Usually at the 20 minute mark (sometimes I set a timer) I'm so engrossed in what I'm doing that I don't want want to stop and end up working on it for the next hour or two. But getting started seems to be the hardest part.

3/ Key to this: you have to actually be ok with stopping after 20 minutes and being guilt free if that's how you feel. So it's not a trick, i have the option every time, I just often don't want to use it once i'm in the zone.

'Tera mera rishta kya, hindu, hindu,hindutva' is a clear take on 'tera mera rishta kya,la ilaha illallah'. As much as Hindutva hates the monotheistic religions especially Islam, there's a strange wistfulness and subliminal need at display now, to BE that they hate. 1


Charlie Hebdo doesn’t come up as a cautionary tale now but rather 'why cant we be like that'?
Growing up, Hanuman was an adorable deity for us, who swallowed the sun, or who couldn’t figure out what was Sanjeevani booti so he picked up a whole mountain and came back with it. 2

Or he was loyal, admirable and when he cleaved his chest, you saw both Ram and Sita. Now we have a lot of “Angry Hanuman” stickers. Why is a cute childlike God angry? We don’t know. It's a convenient blank space where to paint all the angst of Hindu Khatre mein hain narrative. 3


The other strange thing that has started happening is pictures of Ram appearing sans Sita. “Jai Siya Ram” has become “Jai Shri Ram”. Some people disingenuously explain it as being the same thing - because Shri is a name of Lakshmi. Not really. Siya is an apbhransh of Sita. 4


Shri is a prefix of respect in this case. Hinduism is being militarised. A woman/Sita has no place in it. Even the militaristic Goddess that is Durga has no place in this conception of neo-Hindu divinity, as evidenced by Dilip Mandal wondering where Durga came from. 5

Keep dwelling on this:
Further Examination of the Motif near PRRA Reveals Close Structural Similarity to the SEB Superantigen as well as Sequence Similarities to Neurotoxins and a Viral SAg.

The insertion PRRA together with 7 sequentially preceding residues & succeeding R685 (conserved in β-CoVs) form a motif, Y674QTQTNSPRRAR685, homologous to those of neurotoxins from Ophiophagus (cobra) and Bungarus genera, as well as neurotoxin-like regions from three RABV strains

(20) (Fig. 2D). We further noticed that the same segment bears close similarity to the HIV-1 glycoprotein gp120 SAg motif F164 to V174.

In (B), the segment S680PPRAR685 including the PRRA insert and highly conserved cleavage site *R685* is shown in van der Waals representation (black labels) and nearby CDR residues of the TCRVβ domain are labeled in blue/white

Trump is gonna let the Mueller investigation end all on it's own. It's obvious. All the hysteria of the past 2 weeks about his supposed impending firing of Mueller was a distraction. He was never going to fire Mueller and he's not going to


Mueller's officially end his investigation all on his own and he's gonna say he found no evidence of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election.

Democrats & DNC Media are going to LITERALLY have nothing coherent to say in response to that.

Mueller's team was 100% partisan.

That's why it's brilliant. NOBODY will be able to claim this team of partisan Democrats didn't go the EXTRA 20 MILES looking for ANY evidence they could find of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election

They looked high.

They looked low.

They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.

And they found...NOTHING.

Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.

What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?

THERE WEREN'T ANY.

Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.
