Hi Harry:

On Ford. I haven't looked @ a chart and at some point it should bounce (how bad can the press get and the pres. speaks b/4 congress & that may help). But FWIW -

My concern with F and the big 3 is the business model. They derive the great margins on the large gas consuming vehicles. For the next 6 to 18 months we are going to be having high gas prices. This will slow sales and put a crimp on margins and earnings. Not sure how much this is factored into todays price.

I'd expect some additional negative press on the explorer. A lot of accidents will come into focus. Not just from the tires.
