Event-Driven

<ul>
<li>May 17th, all eyes on EcoPro Materials for a buzzed-about lockup release. BRV Capital holds 24.5% stake, 17M shares. Lockup ends May 16th; they're free to sell off without constraints.</li>
<li>Apparently, they're eager to cash out, with a profit margin around 30 times and 7 years invested. Many at Yeouido bet they'll sell out once the lockup's over.</li>
<li>We might start building a shorting position with futures targeting this lockup release from April 22nd. This could stir up some weird backwardation, which could give us another trading opportunity.</li>
