Not if it was a buyout -- all shares would transfer to the new company at a set price, no?

You would get the price of the buyout if you hold shares usually stocks won't be able to trade if a buyout is announced

If I offered you ten cents a share in cash, why would the stock price decline? Anyone buying the shares below ten cents a share would be guaranteeing themselves a profit. Now if it were a stock swap from another company than the stock would fluctuate on #1 the price of the underlying stock and #2 the certainty of the buyout. So let's say, for example, Google were to offer a buyout of 1 share for every 10000 shares of SFOR, that would equate to seven cents a share but if GOOG dropped from $700 a share to $600 per share before the deal was done than that would equate to six cents per share so the price of SFOR would decline to discount that, it also would go up if GOOG went up before the deal was done.

Not possible a buyout is a buyout and the company purchasing company hors the prices. Depending on what company does the buyout as a example let's say it is a big board company on the major market exchanges all you have to do if you are not happy with the PPS on the OTC you would wait for the shares to be exchanged to their shares and you would get the full buyout PPS. I have been through many of these with big boards in the past.

If that happens wouldn't there be massive selling since everyone is waiting for a buyout? That would cause a plummet in pps!
