      that's a great plan, except, I doubt they will drop you a memo as to when they'll go up. Make mine a tall glass of dollar cost averaging.

      I agree, hard to tell. I wonder where the bottom of the swamp is? I guess thats the $700 bil question. I wonder if people will cut this thing some slack even if alcoa comes in pretty weak on earnings. These companies are getting slammed as if they didn't earn a penny. Took a small position on the thought that non terrible news might ease things a bit. If they report awful I wouldn't be surprised to see the swamp get a whole lot deeper. Cash flow is more important than ever.

      I find your argument compelling, however, a lack of disclosure is disconcerting. Possibly you thought it was implied through the obvious negative connotation of the article.
      I have found this article highly informative. I consider all that is mentioned with much weight. Except the actual price of a share currently is noticeably missing. At its current level I find this share price in the depressed level and a screaming buy in my book. The last time it was this cheap was 2003 when they earned significantly less than what they will earn this year despite all the crisis hullabaloo.
      As far as cars go they will have more plastic in the future than anything. I look for the "drive by" media to again start talking about the growth stories in india and china after our "crisis" is resolved. Billions of consumers will make all ships rise. IMO Plastic is a more proper foe than steel in its core demand sectors.

      Coal Prices Set to Go Up
      oh yeah, clean coal is a joke that's about as funny as ethanol. But, if it gives coal momentum then whatever.

      I am glad I bought back some of my aci position yesterday. Yeah, technicals are out the window, right now it's psych 101. The only thing I see right now is aci is more punished currently than this time last year. Compared to this years coal prices last year was a give away.

      You wanna talk about missing out on a market, how about the female market. Basically you've got the raunchy radio covered. I don't know a female that has a sirius radio, they own ipods. How about changing where you advertise, why not try to put displays in book stores and grocery stores (my grocery store probably devotes 40% of its retail space to crap that isn't groceries). For goodness sake why don't you get an elmo channel for the kids (the kid song channel is mediocre at best) and a lifetime channel for the wife or better yet that nancy grace sad bastard crap. As far as penetration goes you got the 18-35 male population covered. How about some ad sponsored programming, yeah that defeats the idea of sat rad,but, it beats death which is where this is headed. Management should be fired for offering such a vast selection of singularly targeted demographic programming.

      slo burn
      If the new administration shuts down coal use, which would be a hard fought battle, they would have another hard battle stopping the export of it. The dutch are famous for wooden shoes, germans their beer, saudi arabia for oil, and the usa for our mountainous supply of coal.
