I'm feel embarrased to say what I bought it at... I'll just say it was at $8.00,... however I know a few people that bought it at double digits.
I'm getting killed on all my stocks!!!
the only two I plan on sticking with long term are DXO(oil) & STEM(stem cell)...
I'm gonna try to stay calm and sell the rest of my stocks at (hopefully) a decent price in the near future.
I thought BAC at $8.00 was a steal... I was wrong.
Besides, I'm starting to have concerns that I might need some money this summer... and it won't be there.

Can I ask why you bought BAC @ $8? The last time it was 8 was during the middle of a waterfall of red in mid February? That would have been a clear signal for me to avoid that stock at all cost.

But isn't it possible that the banks will go under?
I saw RBS (Royal Bank of Scotland) do a reverse spilt too. So in two years RBS has gone from $213 to $3 a share... Could BAC ever end up doing a reverse spilt as well?
and what happens if the banks get nationalized... what would happen to our investments then?
AIG is at 0.41 a share... and I'm pretty sure it won't go under... but it will be nationalized.

Say you have 100 shares at 1 dollar a share. If they did a reverse stock split it would be .50 cents per share but now you would have 200 shares. Either way it is the same price in your portfolio you just hold more or less stock depending on the stock split. Nothing to sweat over in my opinion at least not for long term investing.
