CONSPIRACY THEORY on Jetsgo -what do you think?
Has it occurred to anyone that more money could be gained by investing in WJ/AC by Jetsgo investors than would have been lost on Jetsgo? Imagine the possibility of building an airline with the PLAN to let it tank, having the long-range plan of making the money on the stocks of the competitors while the airline sinks. Hummmm.......
So say...3 million stocks on Wed. 1 million on Thursday (just in WJ-not including the AC purchase).... equals...stock purchase price of $11 (not sure what it was but lets just say $11). Now at $16.6.... that equals a profit of 22.4 million (so far!)!!!
Anyone know Jetsgo's total loss?? BRILLIANT IDEA GUYS!
SO, wadayathink?

Well...last number I heard on the losses was about $88 million!
Brings a whole new meaning to that theory on how to make a small fortune. Start with a large one!

Uhh,,, the last time I took math I learned that 4 million times 1.51, ($11 to $16.6) would be just over 6 million, subtract the 4 million initial purchase and you have a 2 million profit. I'm guessing JetsGo managed to lose more than 2 million before going bankrupt.listenheregirl wrote: So say...3 million stocks on Wed. 1 million on Thursday (just in WJ-not including the AC purchase).... equals...stock purchase price of $11 (not sure what it was but lets just say $11).

I don't think Jetsgo was set up to TANK...
I DO think though that it was set up for about a 2-4 year lifespan, at which point they would hope to get bought up and walk home with a cheque in hand. There was never a plan to build a sustainable airline, and undercutting like they were is solid proof. That was, and never will be some brilliant business tactic in aviation business textbooks.
If so, the industry called thier bluff, except the industry still loses.
Jetsgo is a case study in ethics, not in business.

Actually, CClub, my understanding was that it was 4 million SHARES (not dollars). I don't mind being corrected if I am wrong, but I think I am right. So, therefore it would be 22.4 million in PROFIT.

My money is on Clive.
Remember, the transport minister called both Milton and Beddoe before the Jetsgo demise and none of the three will disclose what was said.
Think about it. Transport calls and says get geared up to increase capacity to bring home Jetsgo pax, Jetsgo is going in the tank. Clive buys up more shares knowing full well that a Liberal Minister would never get done for any wrong doing.. Very Shrewd.

Sounds logical that the info. could have been/or been passed on through Clive Bedoe or Robert Milton. That is not insider trading though... is it?(unless it is someone from JG)? In that case, would it be on the up-and-up?Jaques Strappe wrote:My money is on Clive.
