Definitely agree liquidation is non-starter here. They don't sign long term deals with their own customers so WeWork's only real asset is the brand. What the creditors will do is take over ownership from the equity-hodlers, then try to milk the brand for any remaining value. It's conceivable many of the building owners might actually do ok directly operating WeWork branded spaces and keeping the margin that used to go to WeWork for themselves.
