| Whither General Motors' Stock? Michael Shulman submits: If you take the "h" - for help - out of whither, you get wither - and that is what would happen to [[GM]] without massive help. And that help has now been put on a 60-day leash - something its board and creditors should have done a generation ago.For almost two years I have been answering emails and otherwise writing that GM was already bankrupt, just not legally so, and the shares would end up worthless. I am writing this today for the same reason - "is GM a buy" is the common headline for an email this morning.

The CPI of Transportation Revisited Ivan Kitov submits:We continue revising our predictions of the CPI subcategories from 2007 [1]. The past twenty months have revealed high turbulence in the behavior of the index for transportation. Here we are going to compare our predictions with actual observations and revise the predictions where appropriate. We have started with the index of food and continue with the index for transportation. Below is an excerpt from the paper, as devoted to transportation: “The difference for the transportation index had a longer period of positive slope – between 1980 and 2004, as Figure 11 demonstrates. During this period the difference was evolving at a rate of 1.5 units per year and reached the level of 30 units of index. Currently, a turning period is likely observed and a negative slope is developing. The current period is accompanied by an elevated volatility. The slope for the future linear trend, which is estimated as -1.25 units per year in Figure 12, will be possibly changed in near future but will define the duration of the recovery period for the transportation index. In any case, the prices for goods and services related to the index for transportation, as it defined by the BLS, are very likely to be growing faster than the headline CPI.
