What happens to my shares if NASDAQ delists the stock?

Question

I own shares of a stock on my Sharebuilder account. So if Nasdaq delists the stock what happens to my shares? do i lose my money?

Answer 1

When a stock is delisted it means that the shares no longer trade on NASDAQ.

You will find that you can only trade via the "pink sheets".

Pink sheet trading is very volatile and prices can swing dramatically.  In some cases there is absolutely no market for the stock and in that case your shares are worthless unless someone makes a bid.

Answer 2

It means the stock price doesn't meet minimum requirements, or is having other signficant problems.  

Depending on when you bought you probably losing money.

You still shares in the company, but things aren't going well.

Answer 3

No.  The stock trades, it is just not listed on the exchange. You can get a quote. The stock in question does not meet market capitalization requirements or has failed to cure a filing requirement under SEC regulations.   Again look up the stock symbol which as probably changed to a "pink listing" and see what the "bid" and "offer" of the stock is when the market opens at 9:30 in the U.S.

Answer 4

It probably goes to the pinksheets and trades there.  Or the Over The Counter Bulletin Board.
