I just hope this isn't tantamount to eventual capitulation. Lots of people are confused regarding their gift cards etc. This article clears that up.

As I chronicled here over the years in probably my favorite thread of my own:

This is the golden age of book publishing. To think that a major bookstore may not survive? Maybe Borders was at fault itself for giving away online biz to Amazon. Too late...

Great! Now I can move on from people asking me what I think about putting my money on this POS.....
 
This a strong opportunity for profit. As soon as the hold is removed, shares will sink then skyrocket--doubling or tripling your investment. I pray for opps like this, and here it is again...

Huh? Last I checked it never reopened. My strategy is used by several funds, laugh all you want, see Althucher's trade like a hedge fund for details... good luck!
 
This will most likely have huge implications for the publishing industry.

Here's the Washington Post take on the situation:

We'll see what happens.
 
Borders filed for bankruptcy & will close 200 stores. When Sarah Palin heard, she was like “Finally, we’re closing the borders!”
