the company i work for is owned by one man!he started out building hog pens and today he is worth 400 million dollars!did he get greedy? no i don't think so. he told himself one day that this is what i'm going to do and did it! hell i want to be that rich one day. as long as he makes money i make money.i want him to get as rich as he wants to be! his company makes available to its employees a 401k plan and medical insurance and both of those the employees have to pay all or part of. and with out complaint.this is a nonunion company and i wouldn't have it any other way.you don't bite the hand that feeds you! and keep in mind that sometimes that squeaky wheel gets replaced, not greased!
How come the unions are not managing the pensions instead of YRCW? at any rate why would you put your future in someone else's hands anyway? and when did it become the responsibility of your employer to plan for your future? YRCW doesn't sound un-american to me. sounds like a company thats trying to HELP its employees make better decisions about they're futures. the american worker has forgotten that the job belongs to the company and not the employee or the union. all the perks they think they are entitled to are eventually passed on to the consumer through higher prices! so who's really taking it in the butt? the next time you see another company move its business over seas take a close look at the so-called spread sheets and see how much extra cost that the unions and the government were piling on top of them. and how much of that extra cost can they pass on to us at the grocery store before we say enough already! and cut back on our spending.whats it going to take to make people understand that we cant keep stabbing each other in the back to make a few bucks every week...
Pensions are payroll for non-existing workers!
just looking for some opinions.Is anyone thinking about getting in on this class action lawsuit? On one hand i have a large chunk of my portfolio invested in YRCW, so if this thing craters on me, i'm out the whole mess! On the other hand getting involved in a lawsuit could tie my money up for years, and then there are no guarantees of getting it all back, plus the lawyers are going to take a big wet bite out of it.plus its always possible that YRCW could pull out of this mess and do just fine. What do you guys think? The way things are happening with this stock doesn't feel rite to me! i'm smelling a fish here...
Big panic sell off, then WTF over, then a big panic buy...In my opinion...this stock has been one wild ride and it aint over yet! I told my self to stay away from banks, and unions for now, maybe one day i will learn to listen to the little voice inside my head...
THAT'S IT! I'm putting a solar panel on my truck!!!
You too buddy!Have a good one...
YRCW reminds me of that bully at the bus stop when he helps you up,and then kicks you in the nad's again...LOL i think?
what do ya know!the stocks are finally getting greener on my side of the fence...
I think AIB will do well in the long term.i have just been antsy for some profits...
Bank stocks are boring...LOL...
Market Edge Research upgrades YRCW from sell to buy on 12/27/2010,and that is according to Fidelity Investments analyst opinion.it has 1/3/11 date on the report,so i guess it still stands today...
We wouldn't be in this mess if Pelosi and Reid hadn't come out in 2006 and said "WE ARE GOING TO RAISE TAXES".that threat was heard by every small business in america.thats why they pulled back they're capital,and stopped hiring.you can blame whoever you want,but its absolutely clear to me the government caused this mess!and thats why YRCW is hanging by a thread.
I think AIB will recover.its just going to take some time.look at citigroup and bank of america.and siri got de-listed now they are doing ok.
12/26 7:32 PM Channel Trend inc.upgrades AIB from most unfavorable to neutral.
Sorry i could not reply to your pm because i am currently a free member,but i can say i do agree with the views in the post #867 for the most part.its a lot to absorb,and i plan to study it in more detail.My views are simple!the founding fathers made it simple!we just spent 200 plus years over complicating it in order to hide the agenda.thanks for the PM and i hope you and your family had a merry Christmas and have a happy new year. SORRY ALL off topic again i know.last time...
Hard to say what will happen with this law.if it were shot down i think it would help the trucking industry.but keep in mind that the union leadership supports the same politicians (Democrats) that are trying to pass this bill.
WOW!Good to know i'm not alone.i was expecting to get booted off this board for my opinion!you speak the truth!ignorance is our most expensive commodity.i was born an individual,and i will die an individual! maybe you and i can plant a few seeds of thought in the minds of these blind individuals,and let them see the reversal of individual freedom we are all going through,and the horrendous cost to future generations.thanks for caring.Merry Christmas...
Were can i get one of those cows?
Its a common misunderstanding to think that a politician cares about your safety,but in reality its the votes they get from the people that THINK they care,thats what they are after.We must always remember that consumers( you and me )will eventually pay the price for the decisions our political leaders make. The more you hinder the free market,the more expensive it gets to operate a business.that added expense gets passed down to the consumer through embedded taxes,compliance costs,and extra operational costs.our businesses need to make a profit,and that cant happen if the government keeps taking those profits away.YRCW is basically on its knees rite now,and the last thing it needs is for more government intrusion to bring them down even more.I'm sorry if this seems off topic,but we can't keep using the government to punish the free market without eventually destroying ourselves in the process.
Nice cat! And i agree!AIB has a rope around my neck,and i suppose i will have to bite the bullet on this one if necessary.the american banks went through almost the same government mess,and they seem to be doing OK for the most part,it just took a while. Ya gota love the gamble in this game...
Our government has an us against them attitude with the american public,they seem to think we are all idiots!I drive a truck, and my employer is choking to death on the bureaucracy involved in owning a truck,let alone operating one!We have 536 idiots in DC that couldn't find their asses with both hands,let alone tell 308 million Americans were to find theirs!90% less government IMO....
It cant be too bad.after hours seems to be moving up a little... didn't the government here in the US threaten to do the same thing?
Just bought in,and she,s looking good!
Check the IRE Ihub board
Nice jump! didn't see that coming at all. wish i had a buy in at 6.20. that would have been a nice little profit. been looking at IRE for a few days and not sure what to think about this one. normally i wouldn't touch a bank stock but this one i cant stop thinking about! worth 100.00 about three years ago, less than 2 bux now. just thought id get your thoughts on it...
GOOD CALL!
Market down,YRC up? Good sign.hope it keeps going. there has to be some news out there somewhere all i can find came out on 11/22,this stock doesn't seem to move on its own! must be something going on we don't know about yet.
I am definitely in for the long haul on this one! just trying to stretch my bucks as far as i can.i was just trying to read what this merger is going to do to the stock price.this market is tricky.
Ativo research is neutral on TNAV and Reuters is on the low side of a buy recommendation,the support is 5.00 and the resistance is 8.50 looks like she mite take a down turn after all,what do you think?
Dose anyone think that this merger will give SIRI a monopole on the satellite radio market,and drive up the stock price? All of the annalist's i have found give SIRI a buy to strong buy rating.but when you factor in the C$130 mil of extra debt from the merger,and the tax cuts that are going to expire in January it makes me wounder if i should hold off on buying any moor stock in the company until February or March of next year. Your expert opinion please.
HAPPY TURKEY DAY!
I made a nice little profit on that sale,but i wish i had not set my stops so close.I don't think the government has made a big enough mess of our economy yet.might be more trouble to come in January when the tax cuts expire. I'm going to look for some green in my portfolio in the next few weeks and then put some stop losses in place just in case. If these tax cuts expire we will probably see another recession in march 2011 like we saw in march of 2009.Then maybe get in on some real cheep deals again.
Looks like you might be right after all.I just got in and found out my stops kicked in.sold 1000 shares at 6.98.if it goes down any more i might get back in.made some money any how!
Ativo Research says TNAV best estimate is 12.27,upper limit 16.69,and lower limit 9.02 as of 11-12-10.
I thought it was going down too.still got my stop loss in place though.
Cramer was the reason i bought SIRI in the first place.He said a year and a half ago that he wouldn't touch SIRI with a Ten foot pole!So i bought 30,000 shares.
just got in,7.10 looking good,but those bollies look perty tight. might change my stop loss.bump it up a little.
Nice little bump!OK for a fairly flat market.
Did'nt catch it at 7.00 but i am putting a stop loss at .35.I think it might go back up a little.i see some bullish signs...
