Explanation
Why A — 30-45 days
Stock rights are short-term instruments that typically expire within 30 to 45 days after issuance. This limited time frame creates urgency for shareholders to decide whether to exercise, sell, or let their rights expire. If rights are not exercised or sold before expiration, they become worthless and the shareholder loses their value.
