Droski, are you trying some kind of pump and dump scam? I kid.. I don't own any, but it is on the cheap. I will be looking at the earnings Tuesday and might pull the trigger on some.

no offense, but i don't think you guys have enough money to really help my stock positions. i'm buying before the earnings. the reality couldnt' possibly be worse than the horrid expectations here (knock on wood).

Droski, I was kidding man.. I have been watching this one for awhile letting it come in and I was just shocked you brought it up. I don't think you could go wrong buying it right here.

i've been saying for 5 years that this should be a core holding in anyones portfolio. it's just always been ridiculously overpriced. no longer.

So Mr. Immelt says GE has the cash flow to pay the Div. but for how long is what im wondering? Some folks say by the end of the year they wont have the cash flow, but I dont know. Anyone have any thoughts if the Div. is safe for the rest of the year?

i'd be shocked if the dividend didn't get cut. GE cap is killing them.

Droski, are you still holding uyg?

I'm thinking of getting in uyg or fas, tomorrow morning, after the unemployment #'s, and riding it up with the stimulus/bad bank/mtm news.

Nice 30% run on erts, btw.

Not me (I already hold enough C, BAC and GS), but there has been some nice insider buying on BAC.
