Bankruptcy Comes to Mesa Air (MESA)

Mesa Air Group Inc. (NASDAQ: MESA) has been a trouble airline and a troubled stock for quite some time.  That is taking a turn for the worse for common shareholders this morning.  Mesa has filed a plan of reorganization in a release titled “Mesa Air Group Commences Restructuring” this morning.  Unfortunately, that is a Chapter 11 restructuring.  The company said that its business operations will continue and not be affected by the filing.  Shareholders of common stock are unlikely to survive with anything at all here as you normally see in bankruptcy issues.

Mesa shares are down so low already that it was hardly a real stock even before the bankruptcy filing.  But the penny stock is down 60% on 10-times normal trading volume.  Another one bites the dust.

Are You Still Paying With a Debit Card?

The average American spends $17,274 on debit cards a year, and it’s a HUGE mistake. First, debit cards don’t have the same fraud protections as credit cards. Once your money is gone, it’s gone. But more importantly you can actually get something back from this spending every time you swipe.

Issuers are handing out wild bonuses right now. With some you can earn up to 5% back on every purchase. That’s like getting a 5% discount on everything you buy!

Our top pick is kind of hard to imagine. Not only does it pay up to 5% back, it also includes a $200 cash back reward in the first six months, a 0% intro APR, and…. $0 annual fee. It’s quite literally free money for any one that uses a card regularly. Click here to learn more!
