Greetings mama7575 & DrRollYes, the $billion milestone is extremely impressive during this clamity type of recession. Sure glad I was buying up shares below $3.00. I am just going to sit on them.
I am certainly delighted that the executives of Bombardier kept the train and plane business into one Company. There would have been too many drawbacks with a separate companies conducting business worldwide. To mention one, would have been the hedging due to exchange rate fluctuations.
It is obvious that the 3000 reduction of employees for the building of aircrafts will have a positive affect on earnings.
