On August 24th, the shares of Better Home & Finance Holding (BETR), a company backed by SoftBank, experienced a drastic decline of over 94%. This downturn came as investors showed reluctance toward the online mortgage lender. The company had recently gone public through a merger with a blank-check company (Aurora Acquisition Corp SPAC) precisely when mortgage rates had surged to the highest levels seen in two decades.
In the case of Better Home & Finance Holding, an overwhelming 95% of Aurora shareholders chose to redeem their shares. This decision left the trust account of the SPAC with approximately $24 million by the end of June, marking a significant decrease from the roughly $283 million it held at the conclusion of the previous year. These details are revealed in filings.
Typically, when a stock has only a small number of publicly available shares, it becomes susceptible to high levels of volatility. Despite trading at $0.77 intraday, it's worth noting that on August 2nd, the SPAC associated with BETR was trading significantly higher, at over $60.
The situation with BETR brings to mind past posts of mine regarding the potential short squeeze scenarios witnessed with AMC Entertainment and GME Gamestop:
Given the limited liquidity in play, I am inclined to believe that a short squeeze might be on the horizon for BETR.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it!
