soon C will be a penny stock?.

Maybe next week a 10-for-1 reverse split may happen with share price of less than $5.00.

Which, using Fridays closing price, will make the share price $45.20 hopefully opening up Citi to purchases by institutional investors. It will however, lower the daily share movement to 1/10. Citi is usually the most traded stock on a daily basis and we will now have to see how it affects the market.

Today is the day. :D
 
Corporate stock buybacks in this cycle, largely supported by borrowing, are already outpacing the incredible pace of 2003-2007 cycle. There were over $100 billion of buybacks announced just among S&P 500 index companies in the first quarter of 2011 alone. CSX is doing a 3 for 1 stock split and increasing their dividend 38% - sweet.

jp,

Primarily because of the elevation and cooler summers with mild winters. It's a half back location for me rather than going further north. My daughter thinks the location will be perfect for visitation. The step up is expensive but prices are coming down with more property available.

Just curious. I was looking at New Bern myself but that was only because Nicholas Sparks romanticized the area. :D

We stayed at a resort in New Bern last summer and loved the area. Plenty to do within driving distance if that is your thing, or just hang out and enjoy nature.

I was seriously looking at Corolla where the wild horses run free. I just love coastal living!! If I could find a little beach town that doesn't get raided the tourist, i'd be there!
 
I think you will love the area, Oriental is just a short drive; lots of sailing. Morehead City, Atlantic Beach. Wilmington, Atlantic Beach just about two hours and Myrtle Beach South Carolina just a piece down the road. Back to North Carolina you have Greenville my home town ECU. Then we have Washington or Little Washington as most locals call it another water town with sailing and then there is Bath (Black Beard the Pirate) town with lots of sailing. So come on I think you will enjoy yourselves several writers as mentioned above has wrote several stories based on the little water sleepy towns. Raleigh the capital city nice shopping and of course there is Chapel Hill and Duke home to Carolina Tar heels and Duke Blue Devils. I think you will like the area.:D

Gosh, now I highjacked BT's thread. But to finish this off... I will probably vacation in NC next year. I am sure I would love it! Was considering Corolla because I think the kids would love to see the wild horses. Hopefully that gives me time to check out some towns for a revisit another year...and then who knows. Could be calling NC my home. (No way to SC)
