The Norwegian share value benefits from inexperienced investors

One would think a price of 4.50 Nkr for Norwegian shares that with all the new shares values the company higher than when the share was worth 300 Nkr would scare of any buyers. But no. Institutional and experienced share owners sell while small savers buy in and think the share over some years will again rise to the 300. That would in case value the company at more than 9 times the value of Ryanair and probably more than all the other publicly traded airlines in the world combined. Norwegian should take advantage for this surge for the share and expand the share capital again. The last expansion was seriously oversubscribed. It seems like at every turn for some reason the company is issuing seriously fewer new shares than the market could swallow. Except that is for when it decided to force them on bond holders and leasing companies.
