Crushed Unnecessarily - Cramer's Lightning Round (9/2/08) [view article]
FCX is probably the most unappreciated stock on the NYSE. It has consistently delivered a nice dividend, often bought back its own shares, and its recent merger was a great deal for all. It has worked down its debt and maintained a good working relationship with Indonesia where its biggest mine is located. How far its price will fall during the current adjustment in commodities is hard to tell. The prudent investor knows he will not catch either the bottom or the top. Watch this one closely.

Didn't GM suspend (or was considering) their dividend? ReplyA Look at Post Click-Through Conversion Rates [view article]
I think you mean JPM for chase...Reply
Year to Date Performance of Dow 30 Members [view article]
I am buying the bottom 4....for long term investments. Plus nice dividends to compound. ReplyYear to Date Performance of Dow 30 Members [view article]
At the risk of stating the obvious what this interesting line up shows is that timing (and maybe more than a little bit of luck) is everything in this market. The reality is any one of these can have made or lost one money depending on entry point. It seems like trading on fundamentals is a far second to timing, psychology and luck. In this market I have bought positions that seem fundamentally sound and even with charts that look good that shift in days and have had to just dump them to cut losses, except for BA, ha, ha - see above. What is really bad cutting those losses on great stocks was still the right choice months later. I can only figure that eventually great values like XOM will come back into favor. In this market I am still buying but only very selectively and smaller amounts than usual. If something pops I will tend to sell and take a profit and hold nothing long term except several conservative dividend payors and for better or worse some Vanguard mutual funds for my IRA but that is another story...

Year to Date Performance of Dow 30 Members [view article]
Exxon-Mobil (XOM): Can someone explain to me exactly how the most profitable company in the world with decent revenue and earnings growth can be DOWN 16% year to date? Here is the past performance results of XOM,2008 YTD: -16%
2007: +24.3%
2006: + 39.1%
2005: +11.8%
2004: +28.0%
2003: +20.6%
I would assume that their dividend is the safest that you can find in this economy. So what am I missing here? Is XOM a great value play at these levels or what? Reply

Seeking Alpha is running ads in their columns now? Hmm. ReplyYear to Date Performance of Dow 30 Members [view article]
Any votes for the stocks which have lost over 15% but don't deserve the punishment? I vote American Express and Pfizer. Pfizer's pipeline may look dry, but they have the financial clout to partner anyone with a hot drug, or to buy them outright. American Express' problems are overstated, I think.

Re Nurseb911's comment, in addition to Pfizer and GE, I would also pick Bank of America among the high yielding stocks. In addition, I'd pick JP Morgan Chase. I believe both banks have reasonably strong balance sheets and are well positioned to pick up market share. ReplyDow 'Dirty Dozen' Offers High Yields and Good Value [view article]
Yawn. You guys will be here in another 6 months predicting the "inevitable" cut in Bank of America's dividend. Meanwhile, I'll continue to collect $0.64 per share every three months.Thanks for the laughs. Reply

PFE & GE would be my top picks from that group. I would not count on GM being a "yield" investment for quite some time due in part to the risks they face on many fronts. Chronic mismanagement vs. yield? I'll avoid that stocks as a value trap despite the upside many analysts and investors continue to see in that company ReplyBen Yakov
Islamic Banking in America? [view article]
I have been a shareholder of HSBC for ten years. I have no objection to the banks determination to open markets further in the Middle East.In fact while HSBC does a great deal of business in the Arab world it is also a member bank of The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and maintains offices in Israel.
One can only wish that those involved in the diplomatic process were as astute as HSBC in bridging the gap between cultures. Reply

So what is ? ReplyDow 'Dirty Dozen' Offers High Yields and Good Value [view article]
Actually, dividends are NOT the first thing to be cut, which is the problem. But they almost inevitably will be cut, after trapping an entire class of yield-chasing investors. You have to decide if you trust management when they deny a dividend cut is in the cards. ReplyWendling

Remember the most important point of high yielding stocks. Dividends are the first thing to be cut in troubled times for the markets. Look at GM, C, WB and others for example, all of whom slashed or eliminated their dividends. All these issues are being manipulated.For more information click on my web link and read how it is done.
