I can't go out and buy stock and sue the company if it doesn't give me a 250,000:1 return on investment.

No, but if you bought stock in a tiny startup that later increase 250,000:1 you can sue the company if they claim that the stock you claim to own isn't valid any more. That was basically half the plot of that Facebook movie they made.
