What are you trying to claim the commons will be worth if this happens?

Who here can answer this?

If Mnuchin comes out and says they have determined a capital buffer of 5% on 2 Trillion plus of holdings, please show me your math of how this money is raised and what the common is then worth? Then suppose the gov exercises its 80% right through warrants and that number then drops 5:1. I look forward to anyone here explaining their common pps using math and reality.

If they accumulated $100 billion in reserves - wouldn't that be considered an asset and go towards stockholder's equity?

So even if they issued 5 billion shares to raise capital, and the gov't exercised their warrants - wouldn't total shares be roughly 10B?

100B in reserves divided by 10B shares = $10/share in stockholder's equity. Then add in the value of the company as an ongoing concern with $1 per share in profits - say another $14. I think we are right back to the common estimate of $24/share.

I would think net effect of raising capital through issuing stock would be zero - just like when any company has a secondary stock offering.

Am I missing something?
