Mmm Mmm Dividends

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

So, one way I was told to search for stocks was to buy what I buy. Or, what my family buys, as I only buy stocks. And they have been downing a lot of the new V8 juice flavors these days, with a new one prompting me to go look up which conglomerate owns them. Thus, Cambpell’s moves from my shopping list to my watching list. I’m looking for them to dip below $30 for a good, cheap buy, though I think their current price is pretty reasonable to go long with.

Is Ubiquitous Always Profitable?

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

No, and you know this if you owned Blockbuster the last few years. But what about virtual ubiquitous? Like Adobe? I picked some up at a bargain awhile back, but don’t know if I should add to it or not just yet.

Seek and Find Something Else

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

Following up on my BAC watch, I ran across this Fool article which logically lumped C with BAC for the same reasons.  I’ve had my ups and downs with Citi, and hoping to get back on the ups the next time they are down, I put in a limit buy at $3.80.

Where the Heck Did I Get Rentech From?

Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011

I noticed that two companies in the same sector caught my eye in the same month, went to Google and found the smallest related company.

Aegean for the Aging

Thursday, February 3rd, 2011

Been watching this one plummet over the last year. One Fool gave it a thumbs up on today’s latest plop, and I like his argument.

Follow the Bouncing Dividend

Saturday, November 6th, 2010

Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund Inc. (CIK) seems to climb up then drop off before beginning another climb. Even with its current 8.6% dividend, it is easy to pick up an extra 10% by watching for this pattern.

My last run was in at 3.29 and out at 3.7. Setting an alert for 3.4 to buy in again at 3.3.

NABI Revisited

Sunday, October 24th, 2010

My paranoid limit buy posted here in March went through, and I was getting ready to set a short-term limit sell, when I ran across an article on TheStreet.com listing it as a potential doubler. Hmmm. They’ve steered me in both directions, but I’m going to bet with them today… for now.
