Gannetero perhaps?
ReplyDeleteI'll never again be employed.
ReplyDeleteWhen it goes back up, someone is going to make a bundle.
ReplyDelete"When it goes back up, someone is going to make a bundle."
ReplyDeleteTee-hee. You're so funny. You do mean IF it goes back up, right? Or are you trying to PUMP interest in the stock? Perhaps you have something to gain (or lose) if things turn around?
I'm among the most cynical people here ... but I still wouldn't trash someone for a stray, hopeful comment. Wow.
ReplyDeleteI dumped a good bit of my stock when it was at $12 and kicked myself as I was doing it, thinking I should have waited for it to go up. Now I am thinking I was a financial genius.
ReplyDeleteI talk to an SEC investigator (if you want his name Jim I will send it to you), last year about Gannett stock. They told me to go to Commerce Department. Who knows, the stock still might be at least 40.
ReplyDeleteI have four dollars and two cents that it drops below four dollars by the end of this week. Bankrupt?
ReplyDeleteYou know, it looks like after it hit the $5.00 mark, it was all downhill from there.
ReplyDeleteI think I might spend some of my last unemployment check on Gannett stock.
