Stock Investments Going to Pot
I got this from my investment broker today;
Our previous records indicate that you hold stock in the following Companies….. American Can Co., Consolidated Gas Co., Interstate Water Co., and Northern Tissue Co.
Because of uncertain market conditions at this time, it is our recommendation that you sit tight on your American can, hold your water & let your gas go. You will be interested to know that today Northern Tissue touched a new bottom and thousands were wiped clean.
