      Basic Food Fund at Rock Bottom Prices
      I do own a ton of GAJ.....I think it's a hell of a bargain and could easily run back up to the $20 vicinity by years end. Mark

      Exploiting the Downside of the Markets

      No question, AAPL is the best out of the bunch and a $90 stop loss order is set in place to protect the position in case they try and run this puppy up.It could bounce to $110 in no time if AAPL beats eps estimates.

      Amazon, Apple, Google: Buying on the Way Down
      It appears you are throwing good money after bad.Trying to catch a bottom is akin to winning a lottery..it just aint gonna happen. ALL of these stocks could drop another 30-50% before the carnage finally ends.

      Imperial Sugar's Turnaround Makes Slow Progress
      I see where you are coming from in your hesitant approach. The fact is, GE has a ton of debt and exposure to bad mortgage loans. IPSU does not. The company has adequate insurance to cover lawsuits (that's why they purchase it) Buying safer equipment is a no brainer and it certainly by no means implies any type of guilt.

      GAJ is not a preferred stock. It is a bond, therfore it has proirity over equity owners in a chapter 11 filing. it has

      Bridgford Foods: Collapse Defies Logic
      Marcovichie: First of all this is not a "pump and dump", BRID does not have enough daily trading volume to be able to sell large blocks without getting hammered. Secondly, the decline in shareholder's equity is due to the recording o fa deferred tax loss, simply a accounting function that has no bearing on cash flow. BRID has a tax loss carryover as a result, and will be able to offset future earnings by this category. Thirdly,the company will see a profit soon as their main input costs have been recently slashed substantially. By the way who the hell are the " Bancrofts"?

      jancarl: You are right about who pays payroll taxes to a certain extent, however, AAPL is still responsible for paying its matching share of social sec tax, and the medicare portion has no ceiling. On the $12 million gain. AAPL would have to shell out $120K just on its matching share of medicare tax.

      Winn-Dixie: Promotional Efforts Torpedo Fourth Quarter Results
      The Ceo sold only once in two years, and the amount he sold was chicken feed or pocket change for a CEO. The company is a safe investment. It went BK because of too much debt, and today it is free of debt. That was then and now is now. You are comparing apples with oranges. This is a screaming buy, especially since its vulnerable to a hostile takeover at these depressed levels.

      Imperial Sugar: Hitting the Sweet Spot
      You got me on that question. The analyst seems to be out of touch with reality on this one as IPSU's cash value alone is greater than the analysts target price.

      Fuel Systems Solutions: Time to Take Profits
      I was surprised the shares did indeed drop so fast in such a short timeframe. The recent $7 sbnapback was impressive, however that spike too is suseptible to another dose of profit taking. I'm still ready to go long in the mid twenties, but not before.
