For how much longer, 6 months (max)?

 

i'm pretty much of the same mindset. i'll throw a wad of cash that could otherwise go to toys into F and let it sit for awhile and see what happens.

 

Yeah, I've been liking Ford a lot more lately. They are doing a great job with the new products and they are keeping things fresh with major updates every few years. Next up is the new 2010 Ford Transit, 2011 Focus, 2011 Explorer and the 2011 Mustang gets a new V6 and V8. Ford has a great product line up.

 

too bad they have nothing i like.


getting the employee discount is nice but they have nothing i'd use it on.

 

Stick with the casino. It's a safer bet.

Although I'd put money on Ford of the most likely to survive the economic downturn, I don't advise getting any automotive stocks right now unless you already have it.

GM stock is worthless right now, so you may as well hold on to it.

Ford still has a bumpy road ahead. They can bring out the perfect, most flawless cars ever made. But if people can't buy them, sales will stay flat, and stocks will drop.

My Daimler stocks are worth something like $25 per share, which seems great next to the sub $2 level of both GM & Ford till you look back a year and my Daimler stocks were running about $80 a piece.

 

Well it finally has happened. (Guy was just a little early on the news )

GM is trading at $1.80, while Ford is currently at $1.81.

"Say Goodnight Gracie."






P.S. Of course after I hit the 'submit' GM bounces back to $1.82. Let's see where it finishes the day. :P
