not sure exactly what’s going on, and i don’t follow it, but i think the deadline for filing claims against the bankrupt lehman estate passed sometime in the past week. my guess is that someone has been watching this and guessed that there was a chance the equity would get paid something. i don’t know anything about it, but i’d go for the prefs first if they are all liquid. how have they been trading?

“For some inexplicable reason”, hey, the fact that you (the writer) doesn’t understand it doesn’t mean it’s inexplicable…

LEHMQ is gonna be $1.5 (and not precisely cents) very very shortly…

Lehman’s shares are going to recover very nicely as soon as they wade through all their assets…even Marsal has stated that they have still have 99% of assets to go through…Lehman was HUGE before they fell and if you think I’m wrong, look at WAMPQ, WAHUQ, WAMKQ, all Washington Mutual shares trading in the .80, $9, $20+ and rising fast…Truth is your article neglects the real money in companies that restructure and keep common shares intact…PGPDQ, CEMJQ, SSCCQ, all companies you wouyld be retired on right now if you would have dumped 10k when people though it was “trash”…..

“Maybe”? “For some inexplicable reason”? How about the reason that when the bankrupcy results come in, they may find out their assets are worth more than thought? How about if their assets are not 90% toxic, but only 20% toxic?

‘For some inexplicable reason’, ask the otc market makers at Knight Securities.. sometype of technical short squeeze.
