Is it Time to Buy Dry Bulk Shippers?

I have one BIG question about Dryships: I am an (unfortunate) shareholder of DRYS and over the passed couple of weeks, I've been reading the (dirty) tricks and the "me and my family and private company Cardiff come first" type of management style that Economou has been employing with respect to DRYS.
So, the question: What IF he takes DRYS private? Do shareholders loose their money or do we remain shareholders of the private company?
