Not a well managed company whose price has held up under investor's perceptions of it being a recession-proof business. This will prove untrue as in-house lending negatively impacts their bottom line.

I've lost money here over the last 5 years, but I think they are in good shape going forward. Recent increases in federal loan limits will not hurt.

Corinthian colleges has been sued for dishonesty toward its students. I know people who currently work for this company and have in the past. Good service to students is not their hallmark. Listening to their frontline employees is not their hallmark. Their goal is to make glossy promises and get the customers money and run. Also, they are selling off schools. Overall, private sector schools are crooked and treat their employees like crap. They vastly overcharge students and their parents. It is just a matter of time before the government hears enough complaints and makes some tougher laws to protect consumers.

they are soooooooo cyclical,,they are at their lows now,, as soon as the kids start back to school, and the money flows in,, they will be back in the 15 buck range, ,then down again around December. So,, buy in in May-June, sell by Oct - Nov..

Corintian College is in a nice trend and at $9 with a 52 week high of $18 this should be a real nice trade!

People often choose to go back to school when the economy's growth slows, and Corinthian Colleges Inc seems primed to benefit from the upcoming recession. With programs in business, trades, and especially the medical fields, they will easily attract workers looking to be retrained. With multiple locations in CA and FL, all those failing real estate agents will soon be on their way to a new career... with Corinthian Colleges!

ANY EDUCATION STOCK IS A GOOD PLAY IMO, because the US has to educate all the workers who will lose their jobs due to globalization. With China and India producing prodigies and geniuses left and right, the US will need to concentrate on education to get our competitive edge back.

This company admits students primarily who have not done well academically. Some of these students do not have the skills to be in classes so that they become bad debt risk and also bad PR for the company. Admission recruiters want to meet their goals so that they will get any warm body they can convince to enroll. The assessment test helps students to get financial aid but it has nothing to do with how well these students can do in their academic programs. The market is narrow minded in looking at only admissions because if students do not graduate they do not get jobs and they do not pay bills. This company is not geared primarily toward education but enhancing the bottom line playing a numbers game which has ethical problems. Just look at why the Department of Education has raided the Florida schools. The company harms students to try to make the bottom line look good. The numbers do not reflect the phony quality.
