Funny but sad. A lot here work for or are connected with GM. A couple of weeks ago one brokerage set it's recommended value of GM stock at $0.

Suggest you buy fishing gear, two Glocks, a scoped 30-06 and a book on dressing & butchering wild game. Stuff like that.

I bailed out of HD stock back when it was about $60.00. GM will probably come back but it will take a long time.

No shet,

Rate things are going, I'm thinking of investing in Mobil, Standard Oil, BP because demand for oil is dropping so fast.

Just a matter of time before they'll scream their profit margin has shrunk and they need help.

Over the weekend the "smart money" LOL: "smart money" advisors: LOL who know what they are doing: LOL... oh crap I just spotted from rolling on the ground laughing so much.... Anyway, heehee, the smart money advisors (still giggling) say to buy into consumer staples stocks such as food and things peeps have to have just to live.
