Attention, those of you who own Tidewater Inc. (TDW): TDW has entered bankruptcy. This will likely leave the stock price with little or no value in the future. At this time we recommend selling the shares on next Trade Day and recognizing the loss in the Snider Investment Method®.
We recommend these steps to close the TDW position:
• Sell all your TDW shares.
• Record the information about the sale on your Individual Stock Purchase Record.
• Complete the “Profit from Closed Position” portion of the Individual Stock Purchase Record. In this case ‘Profit’ will be negative.
• Record the loss on the Monthly Stake Worksheet.
• Remove TDW from your Allocated Cash Worksheet.

Bankruptcy is a risk of the Snider Method. Although, we attempt to avoid financially unstable companies through our screening process, the screens are not foolproof. We understand your concern and frustration about this situation.
