I am an economist student, and I think you should buy since the Ford name is more powerful than the name. They probably will re-structure the company with their new CEO. If you have the nuts to be patient and look for the profit in the long run, I will suggest to buy.

As you can see, you have all kinds of answers.
To one who wants to make a good investment, these answers could be very confusing.
You need to ask yourself about the Ford Motor Company.
They had a glorious past, no doubt.
So did Woolworth's, Bethlehem Steel and (of course) Enron.
I'm not saying the same holds true for the Ford Motor Company.
Several factors place the company in a serious position.
They have many retirees living off of pensions, and Ford wants to honor them.
They have big competition from competitors.
And, their products have become somewhat inferior in the last decade.
I love the solid old Fords they used to turn out.
When they went to the lighter, bigger SUV type vehicles that don't stand up, they lost a lot.
Many of the vehicles on the road today shouldn't have been made. They are top heavy and prone to flip on their side. And they obstruct the view of the road.
I wrote to Ford to tell them about this. Their answer didn't suggest doing anything to make a better product.
So, the main question is whether Ford will come out with a revolutionary new product far superior to what the competition has.
If they have plans for such a vehicle, then I would be inclined to accumulate the stock at these low prices.
Since I have no way of knowing what Ford products will look like in the future, I will steer clear from their stock and look elsewhere for unblemished companies, like Microsoft.

ford is going to mx. but they are not going broke, but do you really want to toss away your money on that big union buyout? They will go to penny junk stock soon enuf,,, wait a while-- 3 or 4 weeks.. after they spend a while in the cellar, with most americans buying GM and Toyota and nissan and other cars that are still made in america, they will file bankrupt for ford america, and close up shop.. Then you can buy El Ford de la Mexicana..

I bought back in 2003 when it was around 7 dollars and when no one wanted Ford, sold my position at around 13 dollars. There is a new chief, layoffs and some other things going on, I just might again be a buyer, but only when the hype is over.

isn't interesting that once Obama informed us that government replaced into the respond and that we had to spend billions in taxpayer money to maintain the two GM and Chrysler from financial ruin they are the two now in financial ruin. A majority of persons did no longer choose the government to bail out the two employer! it is likewise very telling that the final privately owned US motor vehicle maker did no longer take any bailout and is actual increasing production. I sounds like Reagan replaced into precise lower back. government isn't the answer it rather is the concern!!!!!!!!!!!

I bought some for a trade today after Ford was profiled on http://champs-and-chumps.com/
It looks like it could get to 10.

the general concensus now is that it is not a particularly good buy now. you probably have several months to evaluate what they do.,
