Blue Chip Penny Stocks
 |
James Joyner | Friday, March 6, 2009 |
Barry Ritholz has a depressing list of companies the were going gangbusters quite recently and are now damned near worthless. A partial list:
- AIG (39 cents)
- Citigroup (98 cents)
- E*Trade (66 cents)
- Unisys (37 cents)
- Ford ($1.83)
- GM ($1.83)
For those of us who don’t buy individual stocks, here’s some perspective: The bankrupt New York Times, in the dying print media business, currently sells at $4.00.
