Who did Jan "catch" trying to steal his company???

Firms voluntarily choose to delist when the benefits of being a public company (as discussed above) either do not exist, or are overshadowed by the costs of being public. So it just makes economic sense to not be a public company at all.

The long answer is this – you see nobody knows more about the company and its prospects than the people who run it. And in the stock market, it pays to know. If you know everything there is to know about a company, you can put a number to what the fair value of the company might be. And then you can compare that fair value to the actual price that the company is trading at. That will give you an idea as to whether the company is overvalued or undervalued. If you ascertain the fair value of a stock to be 100 and it’s trading in the market for 50, that means the stock is undervalued and it makes complete sense to buy it.
