Dow Price Targets from Last November [view article]
Very useless, but in keeping with what we usually get? How do you stay in business? HEY! that may be the problem, you are not in business,just twisting in the wind. ReplyThe Price of Oil - Cramer's Mad Money (8/18/08) [view article]
Then two weeks ago oil and gas price continue to drop after GUSTAV did not hit as hard as anticipated. My problem with that is that gas and oil never went up in anticipation of huricane damage in the first place...SO WHY WOULD IT GO DOWN FOR THAT REASON... SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS... ReplyThe Price of Oil - Cramer's Mad Money (8/18/08) [view article]
I think you can't trust anything you hear on the tube these days. When oil was moving up at the start of spring and summer in was globle demand. Demand form China and India would suely drive oil to $200 a barrel. Demand was up and the supply was not there. We also blamed speculator in the market. Suddenly out of no where we have excess supply. Supposedly the globle demand dropped because of high price enough to creat a surplus that would effect the price by nearly $40 a barrel in 3-4 weeks. We are getting screwed. Recently SEC and congress are looking into this matter related to invetory reporting. I hope they lock up all the wallstreet crooks...

AIG employees used to claim that the letters, "AIG" stood for "Ain't It Great?" Looks like the Awful Insurance Giant is headed for the Already Interred Graveyard. ReplyYear to Date Performance of Dow 30 Members [view article]
Long term investments in JNJ and XOM among others are especially rewarding when the dividend is considered. Currently my JNJ is yielding 8% and XOM is 6.5%. They are both in dividend reinvesting plans so my holdings are growing at that rate. What's not to like? ReplyYear to Date Performance of Dow 30 Members [view article]
Didn't GM suspend (or was considering) their dividend? ReplyYear 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...

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

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. ReplyNews Pitch: Why To Buy News Corp [view article]
News Corp is interesting no doubt. This pick of Palin as V.P will help News Corp bottom line for the following reasons I have liked Sarah Palin as a father of a 7 year old daughter and husband of a successful woman.She is 1)YOUNG 2) Took on corruption in one of the most corrupt states in America and prevailed 3) She is as far from Washington as someone could be 4) she is anti establishment 5) she is not an attorney like both Obmaas Both Clintons and Biden 6) she is a mother of 5 including a child with down syndrome 7)She has conservative values She is as strong enviornmentalist but does favor driling in Alaska 9)SHE IS THE ONLY ONE who has actually RUN SOMETHING being mayor and governor 10) She will appeal to those who actually WANT CHANGE.11) The last 20 years USA has been run by IVY league educated people and this woman and McCain are a couple of trailblazing "mavericks" who are NOT attorneys and arepeopel of strong character and COURAGE.
