Cannot load now because any consollidated share is not worth buying because it give very big room to fall.  So I refrain from buying AIG yet.  May wait for US$4 to 5 dollars range then decide.

AIG is now only US$0.47 per share (Last night close US$9.48) compared to a high of US$31.05 (Year High US$621.80 upon 20).

 

The price keep dropping like bird shit! Why the shareholders approved the reverse spilt! Now dunno how? Buy more????? Pls advise!!!!

still holding this counter..will this coutner delist? so what will happen to those who still holding?

really suffer a big blow for this. the stock split come too sudden and no time to react.

 

 

The price will not likely to go up....i guess AIG is trying to stay in the 'blue chip' category...??? 

 

hehe lets see if they will fall to 6usd.. that will equal 0.30usd which is their all time low.. what is they fall to 30cts again.. haha will u buy?

I absolutely agree. Please watch Chartered semicon in SGX, it goes in a similar path and it does "reverse split" corporate action to the share. Generally it create buying sentiment up a bit then another huge correction later, all depend on the under going business prospect/performance of the underlying share!!!

keepnosecrets      ( Date: 02-Jul-2009 11:55) Posted: Consolidation (shrinking the numbers) of shares is usually used as a trick to boost the new NAB or NTA of the consolidated shares because of prevaling heavy book losses which could wipe out the equities of the company if based on the old share values.  In other words, negative equity.  After consolidation, lesser shares to back the assets/liabilities, management might try to come up with right issues and ask the shareholders for money to finance the business. Normally rights won't come that fast, but it will if business does not pick up. So consolidation is bad.  On the opposite scale, direct splitting shares (breaking up into more shares) is better for shareholders.

 

I call it REVERSE SPLIT of the share not CONSOLIDATION of the share. After reverse split your holding is 0.05 lot or 50 units of share! your further loss again if the price went down from Sgd. 2.00 to Sgd. 0.005 is Sgd.1.95X50= Sgd. 97.50 not Sgd. 1995.00 so your total loss is Sgd.97.5/Sgd. 100.00 = 97.50%. Your capital remain Sgd. 2.50 only from original of Sgd. 100. The above scenario is more or less going to be the fund raising style of several financial stocks particularly in US capital market I suppose!!!(CAVEAT EMPTOR) (CAVEAT EMPTOR)(CAVEAT EMPTOR)

Laulan      ( Date: 03-Jul-2009 13:43) Posted: Personally I hate consolidation. It kind of reduce our quantity of shares we paid for.  Furthermore it gives the speculators more room to trade down the particular share. Take for eg. if $0.10 shares trading, the most it can be traded to 0.005 cents, a loss of 0.095 cents for the investors.  Total loss of 1 lot = $95.  But if consolidated to say 20:1, you top up and the consdd px of $2.00 per share can then be manipulated (specuilated down) to $0.005 for your total loss of $1995.  This is an example calculation only.  In real life it might be slightly different.

AIG is bundling, whereas Comfort Del n OCBC were splitting.

Normally, splitting arises, esp for those index component stock which has  very little circulation of shares in d open market and it is far expensive, typcical value in d local, is above $20 per share. In doing so, so that more people can buy n invest d share in a lower px.

Yrs ago, d most well known splitting stock was SPH, then d px was well above $21. Later it was splitted for better circulation. Then uncle Ah Hu  was satisfied with d decision made.

AIG closed at USD 18.08 eq to USD 0.904 as compared d last closed px of 1.16 on 30/6, 1.33 a day before n 1.46 on 25/6. D impact of bundling, big wok ah. Most of d small investors in Wall St now are still in d shock of the bundling process. AK perceives that ds burger really needs time to settle down liao.

Above for sharing, no calling. AK not involved with ds burger. Ha ha, not heng either,as landed in other hot soup as well. D burn is not serious, can tahan lah. Cheers.
