    GM question

    Where do you get the $39 from? If it were liquidated you would have a company with 276 Billion in debt with negative earnings. Enterprise value of 275 billion might cover the debt I don't know but in the best case scenario the only value is the stock price and if it goes to .... Get what I...

    Dell not such a bargain?

    I'm surprised, I thought the newer laptops with the M processor don't need to run the fan too often. How often does it turn on? I have a Dell Laptop that's about a year old and the fan is pretty loud, although it is not a M processor, just a regular 2.3 Gig. When I first got the laptop the...

    WHY GM will blow up...

    The only thing generating excitement these days is MPG. Economy cars replaced the Hummer in the coolness factor. As far as economy goes I'm not really impressed with any company. Our present best choices are to get a little car that gets 35-50 MPG or a full size sedan like a 2006 Impala that...

    Nat Gas inventories very high

    Screw natural gas, get yourself a geothermal electric heat pump with a closed pipe loop. 1/3 the cost of natural gas and 250% efficient. You can also add to it with some solar heat panels and learning some passive solar designs.

    Pro's Thread... $1,00,000 Profit Minimum

    The third time make sure you put half of it away in a 5% CD so you won't lose it all again. BTW Sorry I'm not in the $1M club and still posted anyway just wanted to add some advice. The best I did was to make 2000% in 2003 in a small account. The strategy I used to make that died in 6...

    The king of real estate's cashing out

    Also consider all the immigration in, they have to live somewhere. I don't see real estate falling off the map because it's something we need as opposed to a digital number on our computer screen that we can dump. There may be slow periods but prices will be stable and growing. Unless of...

    The king of real estate's cashing out

    Ok, it's a bet. Go ahead and send the HP to me because I just back tested it and it works out to 19,999,999.996. So I was less than a penny off in 65 years and that was probably because I only used a 12 digit calculator otherwise it would be right on. So there.

    Energy

    I wonder what would happen to oil once people start figuring out they can pump E85 in their cars at a 1 to 4 ratio with regular gas even in non E85 cars with no problems. Also once E85 becomes more popular with more cars able to use it 100% like the 2006 Impala. The recent oil spike just might...

    Why is playing buy side far superior to playing sell side.

    It wasn't that great in 2002, or at least most of 2002. Overall in history the markets go up so people feel safer on the buy side. Now if you are talking intraday, then each day is different.

    Here's a nice PEV.

    I was skeptical of the Toyota Prius at first because I am not impressed with it's MPG at all. If I can get 34 MPG out of a full size 2000 Pontiac Bonneville in the highway you would think a little Prius with help from an electric motor could get more than the unimpressive 45 MPG it gets...

    Here's a nice PEV.

    The oil company's fought to get rid of them in California courts. They must have been worried about something.

    What did Cramer do to have the SEC restrict his trading???

    I've heard Cramer talk about this before, the way I understand is he is not allowed to trade but he can have long term positions and does. It went something like any stock talked about on his show he could not buy or sell within a certain amount of months (not sure how many) before or after the...

    Here's a nice PEV.

    I could live with this car, range seems fine for all my driving except maybe once a year long trips. Price is not bad either, I like their 5 passenger 4 door sedan which is going to look similar to this sports coupe. http://www.universalelectricvehicle.com/spyder.html

    Chavez: U.S. planning to invade Venezuela

    Any terrorist lobbing missiles and taking pot shots at soldiers is called a civilian over there. We have 2000 Us soldiers dead and I always heard that for every 1 of our men dead there's 10 of thiers. So 25,000 dead enemy's sounds about right. Should be much more than 25,000 of Iraqi's dead...

    GM - how long before bankruptcy?

    American cars became better when they started using electronic ignition and fuel injection in the 80's. Carbereuters and points were never too reliable. But then again that's when they all started getting better. You guys remember 1970's Toyotas? Probably not, because they were a freak show...
