    This doesn’t make sense to me. The ultimate value of shares is in the dividends they represent, no? If there are no dividends ever, what are they sharing in? Is it just a postponement until future dividends? A share in control of activities?

    I get that there’ll be speculation that will keep values increasing, and selling can net a profit, but what does the last share-holder get?
