Apples and Oranges.
Stock swap is internal.
Wall Street determines the value of the stock...hence the value of the airline.
No, not apples and oranges. A buyout by DL of NW for say $22 would cause a large movement of NWA stock toward the $22 level. A stock swap transaction will most likely cause a bump in the pathetically beaten down stock price, but I wouldn't say through the roof. Depends what the street thinks the combined company can earn, price of oil, economy, chances of the deal actually being approved etc. I don't see any airline stock bringing a high price with a bad economy and oil at an all-time high, merger or not.
On another note, here's what arbitration gets you today:
