Bankruptcy and new companies to join the game or change the.

Post by shiyanshi »

As a loyal fan of the game, I want the game better.
We all know that bankruptcy is not frequent, "shares" below the "net assets per share" is meaningless, it's just convenient arbitrage players, this is not true, because the stock market does not cause panic.
However, the recession, and even the Great Depression, did not allow bankruptcy, it was just boring again.
Perhaps game companies considering bankruptcy too often, companies lack competitiveness.
So, I have such proposed changes:
A bankrupt company immediately accompanied joined another company B's;
A moment of a company can be liquidated because of the credit crisis, the net asset value per share is $ 30 before the bankruptcy.
The newly added company B, to 1 yuan per share price of Company A bankruptcy reorganization, and to B company added to the game market.
In this case, A company's assets will be preserved, including technology, factories, retail stores, research and development center.
B company again appear larger market capitalization and equity, increasing the new company's competitiveness.
More importantly, the stock market will be more realistic and full of heart.

We can add one of these options, the more difficult option, I know the difficulty of this option for some players, perhaps makes the game becomes bigger, but I think we always go progress, too easy play the game, the game lacks challenge and fun.

Thank you for reading!

I don't think your idea would work out. The bankrupt firm is losing money with its firms and technology, any new firm that merges or buys it would inherit those loses and maybe cause that company to go bankrupt too. Firms that need money already try to sell technology, which is the only asset that is really worth money.

Saving companies from bankruptcy only works if high debt and interest are the reasons for the company going bankrupt.

Yes maybe your idea could work if the company could be merged and purchased for well under book value so that the acquiring company just sells all the assets of the bankrupt company and closes down everything for a profit.
