So basically, a AA studio, combined with a publisher that is still currently being sued by Nintendo, managed to make a game that Ubisoft spent half a billion dollars and a decade to fail at making.

    Is it actually possible to go below 0 on that graph or is that extra 50€ buffer at the bottom just to protect Ubi’s feelings?

      Negative value would indicate “paying you to take them”, which doesn’t make any sense, unless there’s a forfeit associated with having any.

      Really, share prices should be on a logarithmic graph. You care whether your shares are now worth eg. twice as much or half as much as you paid for them originally. The actual number of shares that you could buy with a given amount of money isn’t as interesting.

      … A stock with a negative price would be extremely funny, but no I’m pretty sure that’s not even technically possible, at least… not without high frequency trading fuckery…

      Uh its just like that because of it being a webapp widget, trying to support as many possible different kinds of x,y ranges as possible, would be my guess, lol.
