The stock market is the biggest casino in the world!  Stay out!  Capitalism is faltering rapidly.

The world has never been more prosperous, healthy, and equal, and capitalism has lead the charge.

 

Chinese slave labor may produce much of our goods and technologies, but they were invented in the West.

Ford stock price on March, 23rd = $4.01

Ford stock price today, June 5th = $7.34

83% increase.

 

Glad I bought some shares back in March. 

 

I should've bought more when it was so low, but I was already losing at that point and didn't want to put more in at the time.  Coulda shoulda woulda.  On the bright side, the stock I did buy is finally above what I bought it at around $6.50.

On the bright side my 401K is back to where it was last November and only down 5% since Jan. 1st.

 

Mine is actually worth more now then it did pre COVID....my Ford stock is a big part of that, but I'm still losing my shirt to a point with it from my dividend buys over the past few years.

Ford's long-term plan including Jim Hackett's fitness initiatives and Jim Farley's revamp of the company isn't the issue. It's whether Ford will survive the short-term.  

A lot of dealers are complaining about their low inventory that is not getting better. Reports that auto plants have extreme absenteeism and it's an ongoing problem. Very little reporting about infection rates in these plants. The Midwest has exploding Covid cases and it has to affect supplier and assembly plants. Out of control Covid is NOT GOOD.

Not confident in Fords long-term plan at this point?

 

I had every intention of this being a long-term hold, but once they dropped the fairly decent dividend, I would have earned more keeping my $$$$$ in my checking account, that pay's .01% interest.

Wasn't this a temporary thing with COVID? If they don't resume it next year, you may have a point.

I am content with the performance even though there's no dividend right now (but really would like to see it come back since the price has almost rebounded to pre-COVID levels). 

 

As noted earlier in the thread, I bought around a 100 shares (just enough to get x-plan back) when it dropped earlier this year.  Unfortunately, I also bought in around 2 bucks higher than it eventually cratered to in the end, but still pretty happy with the strength it came back with.
