AFL's exposure to JPY is why the stock is undervalued right now. If there was no exposure then the stock would not be on sale. This is the price with the bad news accounted for. I believe in the long term for Aflac and therefore like to purchase it on sale.
I went long IBM at the same price and plan to be here long term, looking to add on an overall market pull back or more "bad news" about IBM from analysts. Can't argue with past results and I have no crystal ball to tell the future, so until I do, IBM will help me sleep well at night.

Under the Macroscope,
Thanks for reading and your response. As a conservative investor I like the idea of hedging as much as possible. How would you suggest that a US investor go about hedging JPY exposure when buying AFL?

Thank you Michael,
That is a great point, the fact that earnings has always been reported the same way even when the yen was moving in the other direction. Thanks for your reply.
I would keep all dividend paying stocks... I think if anything is sold for May, it should be your trades or speculative picks if the idea is that the market will stagnate or reverse.

Wouldn't that move^, if assigned cost $18,285? Because i unfortunately do not have that kind of money to allocate for one position. Is there a similar method for scaling in like that which does not require so much capital? Or do I need to keep saving my pennies?
ETFs are likely to displace mutual funds within the next 15 years, says financial advisor Ric Edelman, preaching to the choir at IU's Inside ETFs conference. Mutual funds are a "pencil and paper" business model in a high-tech world, he says, reminding ETFs are still a very young investment vehicle, with just a 3% rate of U.S. ownership. [View news story]
The Mutual funds sell investors on the respected fund's people and the fact that they know how to best handle the investor's money. ETF's sell based on what securities or bonds they follow (demanding more prior knowledge from the individual investor). Investors with little knowledge of markets and finance would feel much safer investing in an individual that they talked to and planned out retirement goals and such with than taking the responsibility on themselves and educating themselves on trading ETF's, which in itself requires some knowledge of the working of the markets and how to trade.

I think this is a silly statement, very bold as well. A lot of people simply do not have time/care to even follow the market enough to invest in ETF's. Until recently I did not know how to trade even the simplest ETF's. With mutual funds people need only do their due diligence once, to find their preferred fund. The Mutual fund theoretically takes the worry away from the individual investor. It also gives them someone to blame if their investments turn sour as many people don't like the pressure of investing their own money.

I agree with everything you said, that is why I am curious as to how -Under the Microscope- would go about hedging the purchase.

Thanks for reading, I like the analogy of a dividend growth portfolio and a garden. Both require TLC but pay off abundantly over time.

I love that dividend history. It makes me feel good.
