    Um, dude, really? A shareholder in a public company going private has zero commonality to the holder of a futures contract. Oi vey!

    Techically it still can but the chance of that is close to 0, it's like 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.1% chance. But the stock shouldn't be allowed to trade in the first place once the sale is agreed. Like I said before, it's just like when a house is sold with both parties having signed off on the real estate purchase agreement, the property would receive no more bidding or offerings.

    Why wouldn’t the stock be traded before the deal finally closes? Anything can happen between the deal agreement and the final deal close.

    It’s like a contract for selling a house. Does every sale go through? I have personally seen many house sales fell through due to various reasons.

    Yes, but if you are really worried, sell one share now and buy one of these.:)

    TWTR can go above $54.20 if enough people/computers think a majority of shareholders would vote no and/or also think Elon would raise the offer.

    He breaks the forum view.

    There's a flash for that, but since flash is not interactive, here's a video for that.

    Yeah but usually they won't allow you to bid on the property and they won't even allow visits and yet this stock is still being traded. I mean yes they keep the listing still published but you can't put in your offer anymore.

    My point is before a deal closes for good anything can happen.

    Yes that's a given but they should disallow trading just like how they disallow bidding for the property once the purchase agreement is signed. That's my point.
