4. Let me guess. in 1910 you'd have bought buggy whip stock.

The American auto industry is going bye-bye. The only thing I'd do with their stock is short it.

5. i remember the same thing was said about Chrysler

if i remember the stock was selling for under two dollars. then with in a few years it was selling for over 50...

7. Futures are now flat to positive for the open.
