weiteik13 | What happens to a company if its stock hits zero? |

Worthless stock should be treated like as a loss.
Which means you get to write it off on your Schedule D as a Capital Loss.
The company itself can stay in business until it has no money in its bank account. |

You will never see a stock price of zero unless the company is bankrupt and there is no chance of the stockholders seeing any future value of any sort. That is, some companies in bankruptcy still have a share price above $0.00 because there is still some hope of some sort that the stock will be worth something.
Look at the company SCOXQ.PK (SCO Group), for example. The company has announced bankruptcy proceedings, and has been delisted, but the stock still hovers around $0.10 because there is some thought that in the bankruptcy the stockholders may get some pittance of money. (At one point, in 2000, it was worth over $100.00/share.)
The stock value reflects the company's financial situation, not the other way around. |

The company is bankrupt and shareholders lose while creditors strip the company of its assets. |

Ususally BANKRUPT - EVERYBODY LOSES.
Usually
And it goes to 0 because of the financial problems, not the other way around. It could turn around and the stock would go back up. |

Nothing. The company is nothing to do with the valuation in stock market. If the company has liquidity and book value, it is not concerned, even if the stock becomes Zero in stock market. If the company manages its operations with its internal sources, well , it shall continue as usual. |

means either the company has to file for chapter 11 bankrupcy or lose all its assets, either way the stock is worthless once it hits zero and after chapter 11 bankrupcy |

I think the answer you are looking for as to do with our shares?
The common shareholder (you and I) are screwed is the short answer. I don't think the common shareholders have _ever_ been compensated in the history of the stock market - during a companies bankruptcy. |

You'll never see a stock listed in the newspaper at $0 because it becomes unlisted long before that point. The lower the price of a stock, the more likely the company will be bought out. |
