Reuters: Over 100 U.S. “blue chips” now selling for under $10 a share
This is pretty spooky
Blue chips, including Citigroup (NYSE:C - News; $6.40), Alcoa (NYSE:AA - News; $8.16), Xerox (NYSE:XRX - News; $5.58), Motorola (NYSE:MOT - News; $3.44), Starbucks (NasdaqGS:SBUX - News; $7.97) and Yahoo (NasdaqGS:YHOO - News; $9.14), not to mention beleaguered automakers Ford Motor (NYSE:F - News; $1.26) and General Motors (NYSE:GM - News; $2.79).
According to S&P data, 101 is almost double the 59 companies with share prices below $10 in October 2001 when the dotcom meltdown was in full swing and almost triple the 35 sub-$10 stocks in October 1987
