Malcolm, None of these companies will start handing out more cash to their employees just because the stock options are not increasing in value. No, but sometimes companies will revalue the employee stock options to prevent them from becoming worthless. It's usually the smaller companies that do that and it's always the unsuccessful ones. The need never arises for the successful ones. I've got mixed feelings about revaluing employee stock options. More important, the need to revalue them is a symptom of a company whose fundamentals need to be closely re-evaluated. --Mike Buckley
