Quote:Then they just have to say no when they try and buy the shares. Can't they just refuse to sell shares to certain people?
If EA offers the stockholders enough money [or at least the ones with the most shares] they'll most likely sell out, it's sad but that's the way business works for some people. If they wanted to they could say no, of course, but a lot of times they don't because they want money and don't really care about the company they have stock in.
Sometimes you get the scorpion.
