UBS Asset Management Income Fund, Inc.
stock NYSEAMERICAN Closed Ended Fund

I kept seeing the same penny-stock sequence: good news, a fast run, then the move disappears. I wanted to know what I could have checked before chasing it, so I traced one real day through the chart and the SEC filings.

1. What appeared during the halt
On 11 July 2025, CEL-SCI released partnership news at 9:15 a.m. New York time. CVM traded from $3.75 to $6.04 in the first minute and reached $7.30 at 9:24.
By 11:57 it had already fallen to about $5.08 and Nasdaq halted it for news. At 12:16, during the halt, the company announced 1.5 million new shares at $3.82 each.
SEC filing: [https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/725363/000165495425008033/cvm\_8k.htm](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/725363/000165495425008033/cvm_8k.htm)
This was a best-efforts offering at one fixed price. Although the release says “priced at-the-market under NYSE American rules,” it was not an ATM program selling shares gradually.
Trading reopened at $4.38 and CVM closed at $3.53. To be fair, most of the decline from $7.30 occurred before the offering was announced. The filing proves the financing terms; the chart shows what the market did.

2. What changed for existing shareholders
The prospectus listed 5,321,341 shares before the sale and 6,821,341 afterward. That is 28.2% more shares.
If you owned 1% before and bought nothing else, your holding would represent about 0.78% afterward. Your number of shares did not change. Your percentage of the company became smaller.

3. What was already public
The 10-Q filed on 14 May showed $1.92M in cash and $8.51M of operating cash used over six months. That is roughly 1.4 months of cash at the previous spending rate. It is only an estimate, but it was a reason to look closer.
The same report said there was “substantial doubt” about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. CVM had also raised capital in March and May.
A new S-3 was filed on 3 July, but the 11 July offering did not use it. The prospectus says the company used its older shelf from 2022. That distinction matters: filing an S-3 does not automatically make it effective or prove which shelf a later offering used.
4. My five checks before chasing a runner
1. Cash compared with operating cash use.
2. The exact “going concern” wording.
3. S-3 shelves and whether they became effective.
4. Recent 424B5 filings and offering terms.
5. Recent reverse splits. A reverse split is not dilution by itself.

Everything above was available free on sec.gov. Search the company name or CIK, not just the ticker, and open every filing yourself.
I put the exact AI research prompt in the first comment. It can help find the filings, but it can also select the wrong document, so the filing is what I trust.
