BullishLucid closed a $1.1B convertible note offering and disclosed the capped call conversion price at $4.80, which the speaker interprets as management signaling the stock should be well above current levels (implied conversion strike ~$4.50). The $118.3M premium paid for the capped call shows management is serious about protecting shareholders from excessive dilution. The note matures in 2030. Short score of 77/100 raises likelihood of a squeeze.
