Ten Big Companies That Are Veering Toward Bankruptcy

Bankrucy for Macy's would mean the end of the Department Store era...This will also wipe out the REITs. Sad but true. I guess the Taxpayers will again be involuntarily tapped to save them... VOTE OUT the INCUMBENTS in 2010.

the strong and agile will survive

How in the world can you say Hertz is on thr brink. They are the Mcdonals of car rental, yeah the biggest one in the world, and the biggest does mean the best. Maybe someone got there facts wroing becuase I just read that DTG Dollar Thifty is closing stores. Hum, lets think about that if the are closing stores where are the customers going to go, hum, oh yeah the Hertz the Biggest car rental company in the world.

Good information.

We need another bubble. Government Sachs to the rescue.

If they are going to declare bankruptcy let them. No more bailouts. Let capitalism work and solve these business problems versus the current and last administration and congress approach of just supporting failures and prolonging the problem. Capitalism will bring us prosperity; our current path of socialism will only bring us devastation.

Vote all Incumbents OUT. They have created a club in Washington that makes it almost imp0ssible to vote them out once they are in..They work for themselves, not for the people.. We must start a movement , a seruous movement to OUT all incumbents. I believe it is our only hope to get back HONEST government. Then we set term limits . Lets start right now........emory f

Since March HRT from $2 - 11.5, S from $2.5 - 5.5, TXT $3.5 - 20, GT $3.5 - 18........What are they talking about? You mean this rally is full of hollow companies, the medias been lying about earnings/state of the economy, this is not a legit Bull run.....say it ain't so, for the last year earnings/price to cash flow hasn't mattered, don't start now.....PS: Why wasn't C or AIG on the list

This is what happens when you build your foundation on debt. Soon major leauge teams will be going under because the laid off fan will no longer be able to afford the 4 dollar hot dog and a 6 dollar beer to wash it down. Of couse they can bring back nickle beer night..

Las Vegas Sands?? are you kidding. Has this writer been paying any attention at all with what has been going on with this company? This stock is going to keep rising. IPO in Macau. Macau gaming revenue up 17% alone in August. About to reduce debt by $2 billion. Just got $600 million in cash.. Who is this guy? what a ridiculous article

So its my guess, after reading these posts, most of you have a car that is made by a foreign company, with foreign products and have not served in the military or intend to. If everyone would make an attempt to buy american made and produced, we may not have this problem. While health care may be a problem, making everyone else pay for it may cause bankruptcy in itself. I think that before we allow anyone to go bankrupt, we make sure that the retirement packages of the workers, not the parachute packages are filled. If these companies go bankrupt they don't have to replenish those. They were supposed to be sustained at certain levels before going bankrupt. Thus before any stockholders get paid, the levels of the retirement funding should be attained. When the government does not do this, do they become a party to a fraud?

Let them go under. No more bailouts. Dont even think about it.

Macy's always carried good brands, presented like a real store with class, not like a cheap dollar store. If the only option is buying from Wal-Mart, I'll do without. Would hate to see this slice of American retail history disappear.

Las Vegas Sands has properties to sell in Macau in IPO. This will alleviate much pain. Also, Vegas getting more people back with old style room discounts and they are playing.

gordyb999 - Friday September 18, 2009 12:47PM EDT I agree with terrysnj. Vote them all out, get a new crew in 2010. And definitely get all new Senators as they come up, they think we are working for them instead of visa versa. ...AMEN and add term limits too!

I agree completely. We need to "SWEEP THE HOUSE." Vote them all out. They (Dems and Republicans) have become an arrogant ruling class that has lost touch with the people they are supposed to serve. Send them all a message and vote them all out.Thomas Jefferson said each generation would have to have its own revolution to keep government fresh and responsive to the will of the people. We are long overdue.

Solve the problems vote out all Republicans in 2010. Then we can start rebuilding this country. Or vote for Republicans for four more years of depression.

Bankrupcy is the natural way to balance in the industry. Over priced goods are sold, so no demand, especially during times of heavy unemployment and tight spending. Do Americans still need STUFF?
