Unhappy $1.27 Per Share: The General Motors Of 1933

GM stock dropped 25% today, hitting $1.27 per share during intra-day trading. It's a level not seen since April, 1933.
it's sad.

Yeah, and they didn't have Camaro back then (not sure how this fits in to arguement but its true!) so I'd say that fact negates the change in value of the dollar due to inflation .

I'll tell you what. If you beleived that GM was going to rebound and that the Gov. would see to it then it would be a hell of a time to buy a bunch of it right now.

I've got 10,000.00 in the bank for a rainy day fund. I won't do it but I'll keep an eye out I promise you that.

Pretty risk at this point. If they do end up declaring Chapter 11 your stocks are worthless.
