Nasdaq listing approaching: a boost for Almonty and new opportunities
The rollback is seen as a signal that things are getting serious regarding the planned listing of Almonty Industries shares on the Nasdaq. To be listed on the prestigious US stock exchange, shares must be trading at at least USD 3.00. Although the current price is already well above this mark, Almonty (TSX:AII) is playing it safe and consolidating its share portfolio. This indicates that Almonty shares could be traded on the Nasdaq in the coming weeks. A listing on one of the world’s largest and most prestigious stock exchanges offers access to institutional investors from the US, increases the chance of inclusion in indices, and ensures improved international visibility and higher trading volumes. For companies, a successful listing process is a kind of accolade, as it requires strict financial, transparency, and compliance rules to be met. As a result, financing also becomes easier – companies whose shares are traded on the Nasdaq play in a different league when it comes to investors.

Since the new shares will be traded starting next Monday and Almonty Industries has gained nearly 300% in the past six months alone, there could be some short sellers who will have to act in the wake of today’s announced share rollback.
