There was a huge run on Mesa stock this afternoon. 7.2 million transactions today.

What could possibly be going on?
 
News coming fast and changing fast! Just came out an hour ago. Looks like they reached another agreement with some of the bond holders.

Anytime 75 million new shares of anything hit the market it is going to drop. The real question is can they reach a new deal on the recinded agreements.
 
Doing some quick math.. wouldn't Mesa stock have to increase by 3000% in order to yield what principal needs to be repaid??
 
Possibly more than that. Not too long ago there was something about the BOD approving up to 900 million additional shares. That when the current issued share count was about 25 mil and trading at .19. Even if they only issued 25% of those 900 to payback bond holders that would put the price way below a penny.
 
Looks like they restructured all of the bonds. Unbelievable. I am at a loss for words.

Nope. Besides the 12 million of 2023 notes still outstanding...

This says they intend to resume talks. Doesnt mean they have agreements to restructure yet.
