    Can Six Flags Survive this Roller Coaster Ride? [view article]
    What affect would the reverse stock split have on SIX if any? My thinking is to buy now (.49/share), capitalize on the "reverse", then buy PUTS. What do you all think? Reply

    Good Review, of course Six Flags has not be a serious entertainment company for some years and it is just now becoming obvious to investors, the patrons knew it years ago. Let them sink and sell the assets because that is where the value is. Z Reply

    Constantly bashing SIX because you can't diversify your articles? I want your job, all you have to do is write about all of your opinions. Seems though, you don't have many of them. I think your target audience has heard your rant, but if I were you I'd slow that chant because you will look real foolish if SIX takes foot. I think yes, SIX is a risk now, but if it can get over the hump (I think it will) it is going to take off fast. I know one things for sure investor sediment has more to do with stocks than the actual business. I think your negative image of SIX along with other bored writers has had a bigger impact on their fall as of lately than their finances. The debt margin has been their for a while now, that is why they had new management take over. It should have been considered in the previous shares price. Funny thing is the stock has fallen to a fifth of its price (in about a year), but profits have increased (to a positive number) in a poor customer climate. I would'nt bet the whole farm on SIX, but I think you would be stupid not to have some. (disclaimer- I own shares in SIX) Reply

    Awallen, the revenue growth came from increased sponsorship revenue and increases in guest spending....ticket prices were basically flat year over year. Reply

    To most this is psychic babble, but to those who are seers into the future, SIX will be above $10 in three years and never less there after. Reply

    the question i have is did they raise costs 5%, many companies, like bob evans who fail to meet core comps tend to raise prices for example 5%, to show a 3% growth, to spite a 2% loss in those numbers, making up the diffrence in higher costs. That said, the summer vacation period is shot to heck, so staycations may be the big saviour latew this season as prices fall just enough to get more people on the road, but not to far from home.

    TY Grebellion, talking about a one sided article of rants because they apparently aren't Disney yet?
    The quote from Shapiro that i felt reflected his honesty was, i think we can do this if we don't run out of money first. I'm telling you fixed minimum payments are a killer when they took years to build up. I have my fingers crossed.     Reply

    You do realize that the current management team has done wonders turning around what was a horribly run business right? You do realize that EBITDA should go from $190 million to $270 million this year, right? On the attendance front, don't you find it pretty impressive that despite flat attendance, the company has been able to grow revenues 5%+ YTD? Granted Shapiro can get a bad rap for his "cheerleading&quo... type attitude, but look at what this team has accomplished with what little they had to work with since the took over. The highly leveraged balance wasn't their doing, the crappy economy isn't their fault, but they aren't making excuses, they are executing despite this and while the balance sheet issue may prove too much to overcome, they are certainly making a noble effort.

    Stop with the hate, and try being objective for once in your writing.     Reply

    N Roubine has been giving us economic doomsday scenarios every month since at least 2005 (when I first noticed Nouriel the permabear on TV). He was dead wrong in 05, 06, and 07. Anyone can predict a recession and be right eventually.... wait, we haven't gone into recession yet. Reply

    I really don't have a commit about the above. But would like to ask a plush vendor that sells to parks if he or she would be interested in buying a inventory of plush puppies. I am no longer in business and need to sell this inventory. you can reach me at katherine06@sbcglobal.... Reply

    Will This Summer Be Six Flags' Last Ride? [view article]
    Im a season pass holder and a share holder. I love this park. There is plenty of money to be made in entrance, soda, food, candy, games, toys, gifts, advertising ect. I think the new management will strugle and ultimatley dominate peoples expectaions. I go there and cheer on the guy selling three crates of $4.00 drinks! The flash pass was a great way for customers to "have more fun" and for them to pay a "park premuim", they can't continue to lose money. They are cool, nice, clean, safe and fun. Were are all the thrill seekers going to go if they shut down a place like that? I think their gonna break their arms on skate boards or down hill mountain bikes or maybe a plane jump were the parchute doent work. If I die on a ride, screw it, Im dead. At least it was a pretty safe thrill. And as for the kid that got killed a while back, he was in a restricted area. Great America has some of the coolest, most axcessable and SAFE rides. I would'nt want a fly by day fair coming by and setting up those trinkets they call rides. I can see Disney and maybe some others (I've never been to) being nice too. But as far as Im concerned I beleive in Great America and I got 4100 shares to proove it. I only wish I could invest more, but a portfollio with to much of one thing is'nt a good idea. I think people will look back at this day and say this is when I should have got in on the action. Reply

    I feel that the there is money to be made with parks, it requires a new way of thinking! The time has come to show how it can be done and we are about to do just that.
