This could be a good swing play, but not a long hold IMHO.
Good Luck
Some examples: K-Mart (bankruptcy complete), FederalMogal (FDMLQ), Hayes-Lemmerz (bankruptcy complete).
All three screwed their stockholders!

I THINK WE WILL KNOW THIS COMING WEEK IF THEY ARE GOING TO GIVE INTO THE REORGANIZATION OF 20 CENTS ON THE DOLLAR TO CREDITORS. I BELIEVE THAT IS BEING NEGOCIATED NOW.
IF THEY DO THAT--IT WILL BE SIMILAR TO HEALTH SOUTH (HLSH) DUE TO ADMINISTRATION FRAUD YADA YADA--WENT TO .10--CLOSED TODAY AT OVER 5.00.
I PICKED UP SOME SHARES TODAY--PURE SPECULATION..IF THEY REORGANIZE THEY SHOULD BE UP AND RUNNING STRONG BY THE END OF THIS YEAR.
500.00 DOLLARS OF HEALTH SOUTH WOULD BE ALMOST 30,000 TODAY. 18 MONTHS--NOT BAD..
ENRON WILL RUN UP FASTER THAN HLSH. IMHO
IF THEY GO BELLY UP--SELL QUICK--IF NOT, COULD BE THE WINNING LOTTO TICKET. LOL

Jul 15, 2004 (AP WorldStream via COMTEX) -- A look at the two companies that will emerge from the Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization of Enron Corp., which will cease to exist:
Crosscountry Energy Corp:
Assets:
-2,600-mile (4,185-kilometer)Transwestern Pipeline, which transports gas from West Texas, Oklahoma, eastern New Mexico, the San Juan Basin in northwestern New Mexico and southern Colorado to California, Arizona and Texas markets.
-Half-ownership (with El Paso Corp.) of Citrus Corp., a holding company that owns the 5,000-mile (8,045-kilometer) Florida Gas Transmission pipeline from southeast Texas to Florida.
-A less than 2 percent interest in Northern Border Partners, which transports natural gas from Canada to the Midwest.
Financial projections: Combined net income from its interests in those three assets in 2002 was $78.1 million, according to bankruptcy court filings. Future net income expected to be $121 million to $159 million in 2004-2006.
Estimated worth of the assets: Ranges from $1.409 billion to $1.571 billion.
Employees: 1,200.
Enron has competing offers to buy CrossCountry for about $1.8 billion plus assumption of $430 million in debt. A bankruptcy judge will consider those and any other bids at a Sept. 1 auction, and is slated to approve the winning bid Sept. 9. Proceeds would help pay Enron creditors.
