Sergio,I'll have to check for filings,not much in the way of news(I have seen their trailers though) My first guess would be,something is going on-they've been liquidating/selling assets...DD "Wabash National Corporation is the largest United States designer and manufacturer of truck trailers and operates the largest company-owned distribution system for new and used truck trailers, aftermarket parts and maintenance services. The Company also provides leasing and financing programs to its customers through its wholly owned subsidiary, Wabash National Finance Corporation. The Company recently established its retail branch network and service capacity through the 1997 acquisition of certain assets of Fruehauf Trailer Corporation [OTC BB:FTCFQ -news], including the well-recognized Fruehauf(R) and Pro-Par(R) brand names."

Sergio,not much there on FTCFQ-no filings,and very little news. I was right about the "Q"-IMO,stay clear of this one.For future reference, for those that don't know Stock symbol: A unique four- or five-letter symbol assigned to a Nasdaq security. If a fifth letter appears, it identifies the issue as other than a single issue of common stock or capital stock. A list of fifth letter identifiers and a description of what each represents follows: A - Class A B - Class B C - Issuer qualifications exceptions* D - New E - Delinquent in required filings with the SEC F - Foreign G - First convertible bond H - Second convertible bond, same company I - Third convertible bond, same company J - Voting K - Nonvoting L - Miscellaneous situations, such as depositary receipts, stubs, additional warrants, and units M - Fourth preferred, same company N - Third preferred, same company O - Second preferred, same company P - First preferred, same company Q - Bankruptcy Proceedings R - Rights S - Shares of beneficial interest T - With warrants or with rights U - Units V - When issued and when distributed W - Warrants Y - ADR (American Depositary Receipt) Z - Miscellaneous situations such as depositary receipts, stubs, additional warrants, and units. * The letter "C" as a fifth character in a security symbol, indicates that the issuer has been granted a continuance in Nasdaq under and exception to the qualification standards for a limited period.
