We have been investing for 40 years and lean towards a conservative approach with dividend paying blue chips, as well as a small amount of short term risk plays. We hedge with option strategies, and watch trends. We have always handled our own portfolio, and firmly believe that anyone can learn to navigate the market and its risks and rewards by doing ongoing research, watching the world around us, and keeping an eye on trends and politics. Our goal here is to simplify the world of investing by making it a bit more personal, entertaining, and down to earth. We are not trying to sell anything, nor are we looking for "clients" since we are not professional advisors, or stock brokers. We simply want folks to read our articles, give us feedback, follow us, and let us know how we are doing. We look forward to any and all comments and hope that you enjoy our style.

In the meantime I hope you review some of the articles you might have missed or feel a need to review again. Remember, the Team Alpha Portfolio, as well as the Young and Restless, need to be monitored and it is never a bad idea to go over the articles already written.

In any case, thank you for your continued loyalty to me, as well as Seeking Alpha.

Now that confuses me a bit because with ZIRP in place, the spread has widened and profits going forward could increase, and so can dividends, especially with Annaly (NLY).

What am I missing? NLY is now selling below book and it had record profits. The CreXus deal is a sound shift of gears for NLY, and we might see dividends increase.

WHAT AM I MISSING?

Can someone fill in the blanks or should we buy more NLY?

]]> Two Recent Articles That Should Be Reviewed By All Investors http://seekingalpha.com/instablog/1004518-regarded-solutions/1826671-two-recent-articles-that-should-be-reviewed-by-all-investors?source=feed 1826671 In the last week I wrote two articles that I believe should be read by as many investors as possible. Since the market is reaching all time highs, and corrections seem elusive, investors could use as much information as possible to make decisions.

This article shows what a market correction can actually do to a particular portfolio. In this case the Team Alpha Retirement Portfolio.

What Does A Big Market Correction Actually Look Like?

I believe that the article will be enlightening as well as offering another way of looking at market pullbacks. With much less FEAR.

The next article outlines a strategy to use the Fed policies to an investors advantage while the policies are in place.

Making Money Playing The Fed At Its' Own Game

None of us truly know how long the Fed will continue pouring money into the economy, but what we do know is that certain sectors and stocks could benefit more than others.

That being said, as the stocks in that article continue to strengthen, the ripple affect could have greater implications for a stronger economy.

Please take a moment and review each of these timely articles. You might even know investors who might need some direction. Sharing information helps everyone become more knowledgeable.

]]> Responding To Comments On My Articles http://seekingalpha.com/instablog/1004518-regarded-solutions/1683851-responding-to-comments-on-my-articles?source=feed 1683851 I have always taken the approach that when any of my work has been read and commented on, I would respond to just about every single one. It has become quite a task as our following has grown to nearly 6,000 and I generally receive well over 75 comments for each article.

What seems to have been happening is that some commenter's see it as their own playground to either abuse me, become confrontational, and disrupt the flow of valuable input from genuine followers. I am not talking about folks who disagree.

The folks I am referring to know who they are.

I am going to be tweaking my approach in an effort to make the comment stream more important for all readers. I will selectively respond to comments that are pertinent to the content in the article, but I will no longer go back and forth with a commenter who wants to keep the argument going. It seems to end up taking away very sound input from the comment thread.

Since I am the one who wrote the article in the first place, most of the folks who simply nitpick or toss rocks can find their questions answered in the article itself. If I am able to write my opinion within the article why is it necessary to defend my position to anyone who simply wants to argue?

IF ANYONE WANTS TO ASK A QUESTION OFF TOPIC, YOU MAY DO SO BY SENDING ME A DIRECT MESSAGE.

I also have an extremely successful advance alert e-mail service in which I send out new article announcements usually well before SA sends them out. I keep in touch with well over 600 investors in this way, and it is open for anyone who cares to be a part of this free service.

The upside of this service is also the ability to engage me on a one on one basis if you have any specific questions. If I can answer them, I always do.

I do not give out investment advice, but I engage with anyone who cares to discuss our educational process in addition to receiving the early article alerts.

The email address is: regardedsolutionsinc@gmail.com

Feel free to send me an email requesting that you be added to our growing community of followers.

All I ask in return is that you follow me on Seeking Alpha, and read all of my articles to help support this endeavor.

I think GE could be ready for a stronger upside move very soon, and could also increase dividends, based on the information in this article.

Thanks, and profitable investing to all!
