.0 doesn't happen really. Just fractions of pennies slowly getting smaller. One a stock is out in the open that's it. The company gets it's money when the shares are released as an IPO. After that the share price doesn't really have anything to do with the company finances unless they decide to sell more shares.

Correct. But the price is a reflection of public/investor confidence in the companies future prospects...

Hey just look at it this way - if you spend like 600 grand, you can buy Mesa, and personally toss JO out.

You don't need to buy it all...just 50% plus one share.

That is only $414.00 per pilot according to the number of pilots listed on the Mesa snapshot on apc...with as low as wages are, I would imagine anyone could scrounge up $414 by pawning a couple things off, borrowing from friends & family, or donating plasma...honestly I think it's not a bad idea...take it over!!!

When 9E recently fired a whole bunch of ops and corp personnel, I actually thought that might be a good time to rally not only pilots but salried employees for a takeover...instead of utilizing mid-level management cuts to pay the bills, toss the CEO and find someone who costs less and makes better decisions...

That is really a good idea!!

1.) Do the stock have voting rights attached?

a.) If so, the pilots can start by voting out all the creeps in management,
b.) get paid for actual flight time ,

c.) vote themselves a raise!!
