When I lived in Houston, I worked for a company that was in the mid 100s, shot up to the 30s in two years, then fell even faster. It is now in the 400s.
During that same time, Enron was in the top 10.
I don’t take the rankings too seriously, I just like sifting through lists.
jessi, the silver and gold etf’s do in fact hold the commodity. the difference is that if you buy silver futures you can control a lot of silver with a limited amount of actual money. That’s why they’ve been raising the margin requirements.
I’m not leveraging, I’m investing a dollar of money for a dollar of silver. These etf’s are great for the small investor.
The market is around 35 bucks, where the market was well supported for some time (traded around that point for 1 month, so plenty of strong buyers there), the weak sisters and grandmas have been wiped out. I would say stay the hell away from futures, (unless you are protected by an OPTION, not a stop…too volatile) but for an ETF, I think you are perfectly positioned for a DEAD CAT BOUNCE!
Dona – so the silver EFT isn’t bad because it doenst hold real silver and you don’t have to worry about posting collateral? Seems nutty that the actually commodity would be a less safe bet than the derivative if the point is to hedge paper money(sorry for any wrong technical terms).

“I’ve been browsing the Fortune 500 list and the geography of their corporate headquarters”
BHS, this is a far cry from the sites you were browsing yesterday. You must be in the office today.
