How about C?

First time buyer, 10K to start. Thinking about "C", is it a good buy for long term?
Thanks in advance.

if you are a gambler, go for it. Who knows when it's gonna to pick up. Citi is still in high risk. Mutual fund managers do not like it at all.

& h9 G- b2 w4 j: KI agree with cougarzuo. C currently is a BIG NO for me. It may give you an offering price for the new issue someday later, but I expect the price following the new issue to drop even below the offering price. Then you may consider loading some shares if you really like C.

I will not have time to monitor the market closely to be an active trader. I just wanted to turn some free cash into some long term assets. Would C still be there in 5 years? If yes, would the stock gain higher than inlfation and GIC?  Thanks for your adivse.

如果买了抱住的话，个人看好能源和原材料股。
