Options one and three are correct. The shareholders have been and will always be an annoyance to the senior producers whose management believe that the company is their own personal candy store.

Not long ago COMS (Three-COM) was sued by unhappy shareholders..(lawyers..<g>0 why? poor management? stupid decisions? No-price drop from 65 to 25?

Now..(2 years later) the price is $70, same management, same product, same prospect, different sentiment..

"But in the case of larger producers such as ABX it makes less sense to turn over ownership of the company from the shareholders to bullion banks"

It makes no sense - because it is a legal impossibility - which you may not be aware of - I have no idea of the extent of your knowledge of stocks and shares, etc. But Ken knows about this sort of thing yet he panders to you - because it suits his argument.

The shareholders own the company - period. If a company goes bankrupt the assets are placed in the hands of a receiver - and the shareholders stand last in line.

But we are discussing a going concern here.
