“The stock price has sunk to Rs.5/- per share”, Aryaman screamed in shock while checking the share price of a company on the verge of bankruptcy.
Just before the National Companies Law Tribunal could officially declare them bankrupt, a saviour appeared to repay the debt, and the stock prices started surging again.
“But why didn’t he do so earlier?” There was a question in his not-so-financially literate wife’s eyes.
“He was buying the dip and will resell the shares at a higher price to recover the amount he paid for the bailout.”
“So the shareholders who lost money have financed the bailout without getting a controlling stake in the company.”
“You are getting smarter,” Aryaman looked at her indulgently.

Scary for the small investor to think about, isn’t it.
