Time to invest GM

Its time to buy a couple hundred shares of GM, with a few more days of consolidation I will buy in with a stop limit @ fifteen.

You take a chance to lose six-hundred compared to a upside of, no predictions.

^^ that's right. The estimated economic impact of GM folding is so profound, it's scares economists. Government will prop it up at the very least. I say buy, too.

I've been saying this for a couple weeks now it's a huge risk but i beleive it could be an easy way to get into owning a profitable stock. It's like any stock you have to be willing to risk your money and I think GM will turn around and money can be made with them. How much are they a share now?

Well I have been buying for awhile I thought $35 was low. But I am in the stock in for the long term. I just look at it this way I can just buy more at $100 a week now. LOL

I'd advise caution with this, I went through the same thought process with LTV Steel here in Cleveland. LTV filed for bankruptcy about 20 years ago, the stock dropped to .25 a share. The state bailed them out and the stock went up to $18 a share within a year. About 3 years ago, LTV went into bankruptcy again, and when the stock got down to .18 a share, I bought a lot. Unfortunately the state didn't help them, their assets were bought out by another company and the stock is currently worth .005 per share.

I would have never dreamed that the state and local government would have allowed this, since now the state has to guarantee the pensions of the steel workers.

I got burned on a "sure thing", so invest cautiously.

Investing requires due diligence...

Always has, always will.

The last thing I would do is take stock tips from people on this board...half don't even know what Bankruptcy protection means.....or what it involves.
