This is from a Bloomberg that has been circulating around- I don’t know how to verify it, but it does sound pretty accurate.
* If you purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today.
* If you purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have $33.00 today.
* If you purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.
* But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank it all, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refunds, you will have received $214.00.
It just goes to show in this crisis, your best returns would have been from buying beer and getting drunk.
