24/7 Wall St. made a prediction of the companies that will disappear in 2013. The list included some major brands like American Airlines, Research In Motion (the makers of BlackBerry smartphones), Avon cosmetics and some other high-profile brands.

However, 24/7 Wall St. admits that it has a spotty history of predictions. The article cites its 2011 predictions that just happened to finish the year with strong financials including Sears, Sony Pictures, Kellogg’s Corn Pops and Soap Opera Digest. But the predictions are still worth a glance-over. Review the list of 10 important American brands that 24/7 Wall St. predicts will disappear by next year and vote for the company you would miss the most.

247WALLST.COM reports:
Each year, 24/7 Wall St. identifies 10 important American brands that we predict will disappear within a year. This year’s list reflects the brutally competitive nature of certain industries and the reason why companies cannot afford to fall behind in efficiency, innovation or financing.

Suzuki

Suzuki? Gee when I purchased my Forenza in 2004, people used to say: "You own the largest selling brand in the world." One wonder what they meant. What they meant is that Suzuki doesn't sell as many cars as others, but it sell a very high number of motorcycles. So in essence I was driving the most popular vehicle.

None of those brands affect me one way or another. I am amazed that Suzuki is on there though.

American Airlines

Only AA would be missed, and then only for the rare Atlanta-to-Texas flights. AA departs from Concourse A in Atlanta...very easy in and out.

I love so many of their products and they are actually very affordable. They've been around forever so I HIGHLY doubt they would disappear. My mom remembers buying Avon when she was a teen. And she's well into her 50's now.

Let me say this about that. If I could accurately predict which stocks will soar and which will sag and collapse; I sure as Hell wouldn't waste time writing predictions like this for a newspaper. Just sayin...

It was never the Airlines fault... It's also funny to point out that (right now) the poll shows more people will miss Avon than Suzuki...? Whaaa...?
