onlyflash is right to a degree.  If you bought it when it was $2.50, now you have seen a HUGE gain.  If you buy now at $11, you'd need the stock to go up to around $50 to see the same gains.  So yes, you are a couple months late for the GREAT investment, but now seems to still be a good investment .

if you think ford is going to cap @ 11, you're a fool. even if it hits 22, that's a 100% ROI, which is fantastic. most people get ecstatic about a 10% ROI.

I agree with everything you just typed.

I'm pretty sure onlyflash is saying that if you compare Ford now to 8 months ago, it isn't as good of an investment.  in 8 months Ford has gone up roughly 1000%.  In the next 8 months, should we expect the stock to go up to $1000?  Doubtful.  $20, possible.  $15, probable.

This is really a stupid arguement.  Ford is still a cheap stock and a good investment.  Just because you aren't going to make a 1000% return doesn't mean otherwise.

i never said ford was going to cap out at 11.  i plan on keeping my ford stock for a bit longer.  others have hit on what i'm thinking, it's not quite as good of an investment for say the next 3 months as other possibilities.

different strokes for different folks

Oh yeah and any of you nogs think Toyota stock may take a dive soon?

i certainly would dump it if i owned any. the second round of recalls (prius/other hybrid crap) is going to murder their product image/reputation. it's lost 20-25% in a month, i see it dropping under 60$ a share before the month is up.

Depending on how well they fix this, I'd assume this would be the next penny stock to look at...

Well I just read all this and checked out ING/sharebuilder. Basically I can open an account, no min. balance, and realtime trades are 9.95 buy or sell. I think I'm gonna open an account tomorrow and put about 300 in it and buy some ford stock. Not much, but it will be a start. I've been thinking for a few months about opening an account this summer, but I didn't know there were places that let you open .with no min. balance. 300 is all I could swing right now, but that's a start..

Yeah I really want to drop some cash into Ford as it's still a good buy, but I have a feeling Toyota is about to take a dive so tempted to wait it out. Oh the decisions.

Well I'm saying I could buy the Ford as in tomorrow, but not sure if I want to wait and see if Toyota takes a dive and just invest in them. I guess I could use half the money and buy Ford and then wait on Toyota and if not buy the rest of Ford. On the other hand that's two trade fee's and I'm a penny pincher.

Not sure if its widespread enough yet for a mass recall, but Ford is having some of the same DBW issues as Toyota. Might be using the same pedal manufacturer.

I keep seeing stuff about this, but haven't looked into it much. What kind of investment opp is there in this?

[Joseph Davis]

How about currency speculation?  What country in the global economy is guaranteed five solid years while our economy tanks?  I'd live to turn $500 USD into 1.9 million dollars, even if after inflation that only buys a 1986 Yugo.

I only mess with local stocks....but the thing with Greece might drive down stocks, great time to buy and wait for the rebound.

Like I mentioned earlier JD, exchange play is fast money but requires constant monitoring and is a day to day sort of deal. I'd consider 1 week a longterm plan for currency.

So is the Forex more risky or just requires more attention?

[BoostedSchemes]

both really - you can trade using "robots" which are basically rule based scripts for systems like mt4 or you can spend a while sitting live in front of a computer and manually buy/sell depending on how much time you want to invest and how much you think you know

Should be a good buy, they are moving away from contractors, and doing more in house, should result in some better profits. I know this because I just signed them to a big supply contract.
