Why it moves the price
Puts a concrete cash value on the equity, usually at a premium, and sets a floor while the process runs.
What separates a good call from a naive one
Non-binding indications of interest are cheap and many never firm up. Committed financing and a special committee of independent directors are the signs it is real.
Measured impact
Every logged event is measured against real closing prices: the move from the close before the event, compared with the S&P 500 over the same window.
