Beaker asked: I bought some shares of Delta Airlines about a year ago, and have watched the price rise about 80%. I was planning on holding onto the shares until after Delta emerges from bankruptcy sometime next year. However, I read an article today stating that common shares of a banrupt company typically end up being worthless after coming out of bankruptcy. Now I am thinking that I should sell. What should I do?

Alan F asked: Why would company issue preferred stock over common stock? It seems that preferred stock has a lot of great perks, so why would companies do that? Why not just issue common stocks? What companies would you expect to use it as a source of capital?

therojoman asked: Do acquiring companies only by common stock, they do not by the preferred shares?
If a privately held company has both preferred and common stock holders, and is going to be acquired, does the acquiring company only purchase the common stock? Therefore the preferred holds would convert (if convertible)?

RDDLR asked: Don’t have thousands of dollars to persuade the broker to help me get in on it (whoever that may be). Prospectus says IPO will take place this summer. Anyone have any advice, better details on the offering?
