What happens to the stock when a big company buys a little company?

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010
Chris asked:


Does the little company stock swap for big company stock? Does the big company stock go up? I know of a small company rumored to being purchased soon by a big company. Which one should I buy stock in ahead of time?

How far ahead of the economy is the stock market?

Thursday, August 21st, 2008
Bob Smith asked:


I’ve heard the stock market is an indicator of future economics. We’ve seen a little improvement in the market recently, indicating economic recovery, but when? Also, why does the stock market say it likes Hillary Clinton as VP?

Basically, I’m interested what messages the stock market sends in general.
