RE:Little inteest in bying A sharesWhen BBD was at its darkest hour, the A shares soared in premium as demand for those shares increased on the possibility that the A's would take out the B's. With bankruptcy and/or takeover fears removed, the preceived value of the A's and B's have equalized and therefore paving the path for the average investor to lean towards the far more liquid B shares... once again.

On the day RS was implemented, A shares were selling for $35 and B shares for $27. This being said, for the last 3 or 4 months the delta is 60 cents or less which translate to only 2 cents pre-RS between A and B shares.
This is a very strong signal that there is very little interest in buying A shares over B shares.
Anyone cares to offer an opinion as to why the interest level in owning A shares over B shares has dropped drastically over the last 6 months.
