Honda is damn near vertically integrated, I think the my04 changes were minimal-no huge dollars involved. If you consider the development of the F20B, F20C, K20A2, H22A(2157cc).. Coming up with the F22C(2157cc) is no big deal.

I would expect to hear news of a replacement or drop sooner than later..


What is a hunch...?

If your stockbroker could do better than make a guess about the future, he'd be very, very wealthy and have no need to sell stocks retail.

There's no evidence that taking investment advice from a stockbroker results in making money.

It is very rare to find one that actually knows what they are talking about beyond what is obvious to anyone with half a brain in such matters. Brokers speculate and analyze. Sometimes on little info sometimes on more concrete evidence. How you invest is related to the level of info they are guessing on.

Until then:

Hey, hey now, let's play nice... I am a stockbroker and I take your statement very personally... Yes, the market was down the past 3 of 4 years, but that is just the way the market is... You have to develop a relationship with a broker and be able to see eye to eye. Develop a strategy, discuss and then implement. The biggest problems with clients/investors are that they become control freaks and geniuses themselves... I am not saying that they shouldn't be involved because it is their money... I occassionally get referred to people like that... I just send them away, I just won't deal/put up with their It is not worth my time for me to put up with their negative attitudes... "If you think you can do any better, go do it yourself..." The smart investors have better things to do than to seat infront of their computers all day tracking 1-6 stocks waiting to place their order... It is just not that simple... We are the ones that develop relationship with the actual traders on the floor... We are the ones that can ask for actual orders on particular stock for that day... Ameritrade, Brown Co., E-Trade, or any of the others cannot do that... Recently, the goods ones are those that have been doing it for a while and have enough under management to make a good living... The new bloods are having a hard time bringing in money to manage, so a lot are leaving to go to Broker/Dealers and become Insurance Sales Reps.... It is just very funny... We don't sell stocks, but we actually sell ourselves and a relationship... I don't put in 12-14 hour days for nothing... I get to bed at 11-12 at night and wake up at 5:00 in the morning m-f unless the market is closed. I get to work by 5:45 and don't get a break to even smoke until 9:00-9:30 and even during this time I am on the cell phone ( I have two phones) Don't get to go to lunch until 2:00 and don't get to leave the office until about 7:00... Even then I have to conduct seminars, teach, or visit clients...

Just because you have had a bad experience does not mean you can make such a narrow minded vague statement. It only detracts people seeking investment advise from a Professional... You know those of us that do this for a living, those of us who have lived on East Coast time, those of us who have missed many leisure days because the market holidays are different from National Holidays, those of us that have sat through hell to get licensed and still go through hell to continue our education for the benefit of?? Our clients... I don't know how much you have in the market, but you should do your research more before you post comments like that...
