    Being old is a gift given by those who came before....... remembering who allowed me to become old is just respect.... enjoying the memories of my past is my gift to them...

    i guess i don't see how it is worth more as a certificate, other than a piece of artwork you sell on ebay, or as wallpaper if it becomes worthless, or are you guys thinking they will come out of BK and my share will still be ok as is? I don't really understand a lot of aspects of trading yet as i have only been trading since October 2008
    It could take up to a month to transfer your certificate into shares.

    Don't wait or you could miss out.

    So does that mean his initial transaction date doesn't matter??... transaction date = day presented to a licensed transfer agent.

    if i keep my shares of the GM and they go into BK and come out one day and stock price goes up to what it is today.......then it would be no different if i sold them today.......
    so when does a share become worthless? only when a company halts all operations? so if i feel that they will emerge a better company to be profitable again one day and the stock price will rise then i should just stay long on the position
    More then likely, when a company goes into chapter 11; they wipe out the common stock.

    This allows them to sell new shares and raise capital and trade shares for debt.

    I'm sorry,.... I was going to go to bed, but this conversation about BK in ANY company is keeping me from my soft pillow.... BK in any shape or form is a loser to a Share Holder.... Do Not Invest in a company that you believe is going into BK.... PERIOD If you do, NEVER Post here again......just kidding....
