AIG? Good Time To Buy?
 

AIG's stock is at less than $2.50/share.

Government money is propping the company up so it will not (should not) fail.

The highest it has been this year is just under $69.00/share.

Would it be a good investment to buy now?

Seeking advice from folks who are knowledgeable about this kind of stuff and of course, I won't hold you liable if I follow your advice and it turns out you're mistaken.

Im not really knowledgable but if you expect the economy to stablize and the billions poored into AIG then it might be a good deal except that AIG just got an 80 Billion dollar loan so they are in dept lol...they better have a really good PE rating. But there are a lot of companies out there besides AIG that are down really low, even the oil companies have come down a lot

BTW I bought some shares of Qual Comm a year ago (not many) at 35$ a share...it went up to about 45 or so and with all the mess it has gone down to $38 a share...but that is still higher than what I bought it at.

Qual Comm may be a good buy for the long haul.

I was looking at Wachovia as well-- unsure if this bank will cease to exist or not, not sure what will happen to the stockholders either. But WOW, their stock had fell to 1 cent/share and now it's up to $5.00+!

That's huge! Even better is looking at what their high was for this year! The person who bought this stock at a penny was extremely wise!
