By Steve Abraham on Mar 08, 2008
Yahoo Finance: Strayer Education, Inc., through its subsidiary, Strayer University, Inc., offers various academic programs in traditional classroom courses, as well as through Internet. It provides undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business administration, accounting, information technology, education, and public administration through 55 campuses in Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. As of December 31, 2007, Strayer Education had approximately 36,000 students enrolled in its various programs. The company was founded in 1892 and is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia.
In this market, no stocks are immune from punishment. STRA has been a good stock for awhile but I think its uptrend has been challenged. Attending these type of institutions is not cheap. Many student rely on student load for academic assistance. Well, financial institutions are not going to be eager to make student loans in this environment especially since most people dont pay them back anyhow. :> Here is the chart.

It wasnt a serious comment as notated by the smiley face at the end of the sentence. I appreciate the grammer tip. However, the Republitard comments really has no part in stock analysis and honestly is not appropriate for this website. You might want to check out politico.com to help release your frustrations with the republicans.

STRA - this stock found some support after partially filling the gap left last year around the 142.
Certainly is a lot more resilient to decline than others but I wouldn’t touch it, as there are much better opportunities out there - have a look at http://www.sharesmadeeasy.com

“Well, financial institutions are not going to be eager to make student loans in this environment especially since most people dont pay them back anyhow.”
What a stupid comment. The default rate on student loans is less than 5%. And at any rate it would be “anyway” not “anyhow”. You must be a Republitard.
