Salka Posted December 19, 2006 Is that true? I heard that somewhere but I have soapy hands so i can't google. Er and I'm lazy. I was thinking, like, what if he's actually secretly some insanely clever chap who is only doing this to get take-two some publicity so his share prices go up or something. is that how shares work? I don't know. jack thompson is kinda like Game Life. I got bored of both real quickly but often feel compelled to see how they're doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brkl Posted December 19, 2006 Take Two's share prizes have suffered quite a bit because of Jack Thompson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kolzig Posted December 19, 2006 Maybe he has bought Take2 shares while the share prices are down, then he will buyout the whole company and then take it out of business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
artwking4 Posted December 19, 2006 Ownership of stock in Take Two (or any company) allows a person to attend shareholder's meetings and have a voice (to vote on certain things such as board elections and to speak in front of the other members). This basically allows Jack Thompson to harass them inside their own dojo, since I think you only have to own one share to have those rights. However, he would have to own a LOT of their stock in order to have a controlling interest in how they do business. This is probably just his ticket inside the doors so he can gather "intelligence" on all the secret plans of slaughter and moral corruption that he no doubt believes Take Two is conspiring to achieve.
