  • 5 Dividend Champs: Halliburton Our Top Pick [View article]
    JohnDoe1 thanks for commenting.

    If you are not worried about the long term then you know as any novice investor eventually finds out, that the short term picture is always full of rife and volatility and that concentrating on this pic can only increases one's acid at certain times. Our take is that if you liked the stock at 40 and it drops to 30 then you should love as long as nothing as changed significantly.

    You are 100% right the short term could drive someone nuts if they are trying to make a quick buck.

    Thank you for commenting. We are not comparing PCLN directly to the mentioned companies if this was the case, then more ratios would have been provided and we would have compared key ratios with those of PCLN.

    As for related companies factor, we obtained the data from bar chart.com; it provides a list of related companies in the same sector. Please note the following statement was put under related companies


    For investors looking for other ideas some data have been provided on four additional companies to get you started. Related companies data obtained from barchart.com.

    That's always an option. As we have stated for quite sometime now, it would be best to wait for a strong pullback before jumping into the markets

    4 comments sounds fishy when you agree without checking the facts. If you are told to wait for strong pull back before jumping in, what is the gripe. Take the time to read before jumping to conclusions.

    Our statement clearly reveals that we are not telling anyone to buy PCLN right now. So either you are confusing this article with something else or you might need glasses

    The markets are still extremely overbought and rising on low volume. Investors would do well to wait for a strong pullback before committing large sums of new money to this market. Investors can sell covered calls, or if you are bullish on the stock naked puts to open up additional streams of income.

  • 5 Growth Plays: 4 Great And 1 Mediocre [View article]
    Its more than a tangent its a massive turnaround and has nothing to do with the topic at hand. You would be more suited to comment on those UFO sites and conspiracy sites for clearly what you have to say makes less and less sense with each comment you post. I can only imagine how wildly you would react if someone came out and told people to dump a stock you liked,

    Ironic title The champ because if you read the article you would not make that silly comment. So the question that you should be asking is where do people like you get the audacity to make such unsubstantiated claims.

    Read the conclusion its posted below.

    Nice move. If utilized properly selling calls is a great strategy.

    Agree, one should wait for a pullback. It is usually never wise to buy a stock when the stock itself and the market are extremely overbought

    You could have sold covered calls to help offset the loses, it does have a high beta and you could repeat the process again and again. Btw you can still sell covered calls to help offset the loses, the capital gains from the calls can be written off against the losses you incurred from holding onto HAL.

    Possibly, but gas prices continue to trend upwards. They are now trading close to the same levels as when oil was trading over 140 a barrel.

    The long term outlook is still great from a technical perspective so any strong pull back should be viewed as a buying opportunity.

    Most of the praises I think are based on the long term outlook.

    It could test its Oct 2011 lows and in doing so put in a double bottom formation. Long term the pattern still looks decent. Off course one should not put all of ones money in investment; the idea is to spread the money around. If anything should happen with 1-2 of your investments you should b okay as the others will most likely cover your losses. Successful investing entails smart money management.

    Paying taxes is not a problem if you are making money. Selling covered calls is an option not something one has to do.

    SDRL has been a great play to sell covered calls on and turbo charge ones returns.
