From there it dropped to $9, then shot up to $50, plummeted to $35 over the last few days, and is up $3 a share for today to put it at $39.
Yeah, adjusted for the 20-1 stock split, the stock at $37.71, where it is at this moment, is equivalent to $1.88. Funny, how those reverse stock splits get people excited with the big numbers. I guess that's the point of doing it lol

$180 billion owed to the gov. They have a $6 billion market cap.

Disclosure: I have puts.
