Finally…The Stock Picker In Chief Let The Free Market Work As It Should
Finally…The Stock Picker In Chief Let The Free Market Work As It Should
The bankruptcy of A123 Systems—the maker of lithium battery systems for many electric vehicle companies like GM and Fisker Automotive—finally was put out of its misery today of massive losses with its Chapter 11 filing.
However...the GOOD news is that for some reason the Federal Government—after pouring hundreds of millions of tax payer dollars into A123 as a “shining example of how we are winning the future in clean energy” are actually allowing the free market system to work...amazing!
Here is EXACTLY how the free market would have cleaned up GM and left a MUCH stronger and vibrant US car manufacturing economy...but instead created a Frankenstein company with $60 billion of pension and healthcare liabilities that will NEVER EVER get paid by GM---oh yes friends the US taxpayer will wind up paying the healthcare tab for GM’s 850k health and pension plan members. They have only $50 billion in their “trust fund” and the total costs of the plan run over $5 billion a year...do the math.
If you look at this announcement...this COULD have been the same announcement for GM...and I guarantee GM would be 10X more valuable today.

NBT Stock of the Month...

CRCL is in the final legs of completing a game changing financing to get their Kansas Shale project into production. Some shareholder dumped a huge amount of shares last week and it killed the stock...short term. NBT members are smart enough to USE these weird selling periods to START positions ahead of what we believe is going to be exciting news in short order for CRCL. Some NBT’ers were in today buying shares...good for you! THESE are the moments—like MIMV at .15 or IWEB at .05—that it’s time to pounce on our favorite companies (as long as their fundamental story keeps getting better).
Moral of Story—in Microcap Land—you have to take advantage of forced selling overwhelming the ask/bid on the shares.
