If we are up 2.00 when the market is down 250 - I would think that when this thing settles down we will see some real upside.
This new company - when the shares are put up - it is my understanding that the existing shareholders will get first crack and the shares based on the number of shares of CBS that you hold on a specific date. After the shareholders get theirs then the brokerage house get some then other investors can try for them.
I think that I will be buying as many of these as I can get a hold off, and as some were talking about options. Who gets the option of the new shares the buyer of the options or the seller.
