Short selling stocks: What happens if you short sell a stock that goes bankrupt?
I’m thinking worthless small caps, Enron, etc. that end up being worth nothing. It seems that normally you would get a percentage based on how much it fell, thus doubling your money, correct? And still: can you buy to cover a stock that is worth nothing and likely de-listed? I know it’s a rather unlikely scenario, but it’s also rather interesting. Thanks!
Can I short sell a stock that’s going bankrupt?
I want to short sell shares of the Mega Media Group, symbol MMDAQ. The company has ceased operations and it is going to be liquidated under chapter 7. The stock price is a twentieth of a cent. I want to know how I could buy millions of MMDAQ stocks and make a certain profit when the stock price becomes 0.
you short sell a stock that is at $1.25 and later the company goes bankrupt how do u buy back the shares?
Short selling a stock and the company is de-listed and or goes bankrupt, what happens?
What’s all this talk of people going bankrupt on the stock market?
How does this even happen? What? Are these people putting ALL their money in the stock market? I don’t get it. It just doesn’t seem like putting say – $1,000 in would make you go bankrupt. What? Do they come and take all you have when a stock hits bottom?
