Re: [t]LAD[/t] Dividend still intact. First time I noticed this neat SI feature. I like it. I generally include a Yahoo link with my posts referencing specific stocks in order to give readers a little easier access to additional info. should they desire it. Might be sufficient though with this SI format, and is easier for me. (Of course, Yahoo with its database and formats, provides for more info. and more surfing.) ----------------------------- Notice how auto pricing/haggling is changing at several publicly traded dealerships (e.g. Lithia): lithia.com "DRIVE IT NOW PRICING We took the mystery out of shopping for a car. Have you ever noticed that at most car dealerships you really have no idea what the real price is of the car you’re interested in? Doesn’t make a lot of sense does it? Imagine going to any other store in town and having to ask “How much is this shirt?” or “How much is this computer?” and then being told that you’ll have to go back and forth for hours to find out! With ASSURED, we clearly post the price of every single vehicle in our inventory right on the windshield. For new cars, that price is ALWAYS AT OR BELOW THE MANUFACTURER’S SUGGESTED RETAIL PRICE (MSRP). For used vehicles, we use information gathered from an independent, 3rd party source that tells us what similar vehicles in the area have actually sold for and then we use that as the basis for our price…we don’t just make up a number based on how much profit we want to make. It’s simple."
