Earnings must be released on or before 11/15 and the CATL counter offer (if they make one) is due before EOD 11/16. I believe LAC management will do everything possible to keep the share price up between now and 11/16 for sure. They have an incentive for once to look after the short term share price in addition to the long term. I should have played some Nov calls before the run up. Missed that play.
