America's Energy Policy: Coming to Terms with Reality [view article]

Why Auto Stocks Are an Easy Short [view article]
Hey, Andy, the world is bigger than Orange County! This article just repeats common prejudices about foreign vs. domestic cars. Look at the big picture and use facts when you analyze stocks.Maybe better stock advice would be to look at how ridiculously cheap GM and F stocks are today! GM's market cap is only about $10B, but annual revenue is close to $200B.
Sure, the US auto market is weak now, but GM and Ford are global companies. GM and Ford are leading growth in new markets around the world like South America, Eastern Europe, Russia, and China. GM's highest annual sales ever was not back in the 50's, but in 2007! That came despite softening demand for trucks in the US.
The US manufacturers are also correcting from mistakes of the past. Last year the UAW agreed to let GM and Ford switch retiree heathcare from defined-benefit to fixed-cost, taking billions of future obligations off the books. Now Ford beats Toyota in quality surveys. GM's new Chevy Malibu was voted 2008 car of the year over Honda's new Accord, and the other nominee on the ballot was the Cadillac CTS.
Short the auto stocks? Put that excellent advice in the time machine and send it back to 1999!
