This stock doesn't seem to move much even on big days. The way the dollar has been acting vs. the yen, and the negative reports in the car sector after cash for clunkers, makes me think its going to hang around the 31-32 dollar mark.

Toyota-wanna be, doomed to an existence of mediocrity. Things will only get worse for honda once the convergence of crisis (financial, oil etc) gets really going.

It is a pig in the back of the pickup on the way to the slaughter. It will recover but it will be a while.

Analysts predict a long-term decline in earnings. If even those perennially optimists think that, it must be in trouble.

It is a "monopolies" company, by defination it has many sellers, although sellers try to differntiate, Main St., wants a car that produce 50 (fifty) miles to a gallon of gas per car. We want it afforable, in the name of "saving the planet," and we don't care what it looks like, as long as we can pack our kids, and grocery bags in them.

Which ever producder of this car, could become a "obligopolies"

My dollar is on, Ford

Weakening consumer confidence and shrinking Japanese market for cars mean that this stock won't do well.

when things get bad you take care of you family and friends - -> in Japan that will be loyalty to the workers -- that will bit at the bottom line -- in america it will mean "buy American"--combined with -- fuel cost -> translation-> shipping cost -- bank finance for free --any money on made by a car manufacture will be nil to none --

The next few months will be tough for all automotive companies and i expect honda to take a hit just as well as the other companies. However expect a rebound come Q3.

I used to have this co as outperform but based on my personal experience honda is on the down slope of the success curve.

The transmission in my 3rd honda (minivan) started to slip. I was quoted $3700 to repair and no warranty. I bought the Honda in Canada and I now live in the US. A manager at American Honda told me they are not the same company and a Canadian Honda is much different from the American model. (the idiot does not know they are made on the same assembly line) She then said, "asking American Honda to honor the warranty on a Canadian Honda is like buying a dress at Sears and asking Macys for a refund!"

problem #1 who in the heck buys dresses at Sears (see my Sears Holdings underperform)

problem #2 idiot manager analogy would have been correct if I was asking honda to honor a Dodge warranty

a correct analogy would have been buying something at Sears and returning it at a different Sears location, which all customers expect.

The fact that Honda management would even speak to me in that way shows they don’t value customers, this is my third and last honda. I would rather buy a ... gulp... a GM product before I ever buy another Honda. (okay most likely Toyota or Lexus)

so why is a tranny breaking at 60k miles anyway on a car that has had regular dealer maintanence? Bad service and unreliable means there is absolutely no reason for Honda to exist. (super nice job on the muscle hybrid accord - lol)

Economy has slowed and car manufacturers are still overproducing product. When the economy does regain momentum--Honda will soar in Hybrid sales. The public will remember high gas prices for a long time to come.
