So anyone following Jim Rogers' advice and buying C?

Exactly. Error had been made for not acting on his advice at the time he said. Instead of waiting to buy at $5, the believer should go shorting. Any way it's too late, forget that nice opportunity.

Quote from peilthetraveler:

you gotta wonder though if he has changed his mind since then. He said to buy at 5 a long time ago. His new buy target might be 50 cents now. I actually owned C at 30ish. Sold it when it dropped to 28. That could've been a painful ride down.
 
Quote from dumpandbasher:

But in what manner will C be saved? Buyout at a premium from here? Or nationalization with shareholders being wiped out?


same way as AIG
 
Quote from MrDODGE:

That has worked well for common stock shareholders

yup, but it's the right way, 'cause the company's basically bankrupt... and in bankrupty they would have got 0.

it would be plain wrong if the government buys C at 10$...
maybe JPM or GS will buy them for like 5-10 $ with some FED aid.
 
I don't know if they're following rogers advice, but it's not quite noon and 482 million shares have been bought today.
 
Quote from achilles28:

Citi will never go bankrupt.

They're a major shareholder in the FED Reserve System.

No big FED shareholder goes under.

Didn't Jimmy say the Fed could go under too?
