Athena Technology II Extends SPAC Deadline to April 14, Marking Seventh Delay
ATEK has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $1 on light trading volume (0.1× avg).

The repeated delays increase uncertainty for investors and raise concerns about the SPAC's ability to complete a deal before its maximum allowed extension period.
