Dell Stock Certificate Value Increases as Company Seeks To Go Private

By Rick Roman - 16 Jan 2013 1056 0 comment

It looks like Dell is going private so the collectible value of their stock certificates is getting a bump. This is another of a long string of companies that have gone private only to see the collectible value of their stock certificate rise. Private companies do not have stock certificates that are available to the public. The supply of stock certificates will decrease as shareholders exchange their shares for cash related to the potential buyout. It will be interesting to see how these certificates trade on ebay a few years down the road.

For a short time, you can still buy one share of Dell stock at giveashare.com.
