    Sunny Days - Fast Money Recap (8/22/08) [view article]
    I believe you mean Energy Conversion Devices (ENER), not Evergreen Solar (ESLR).

    ENER announces results on Thursday, Aug 25th before the open. ESLR already announced second quarter results in July.

    Do some managers consistently buy shares for more than they are worth? If so, do they make money in the long term? Reply

    The Top Dividend Paying ETFs and Stocks [view article]
    for Frank Li, Dividend stocks are a great way to make a
    living especially for those of us who are retired. I have been
    investing in dividend stocks for 52 years and have no regrets.
    I retired at 44 (23 years ago) and make a 6 figure income, which
    is really what you want and need when you retire.

    At least my UN shares are holding up and are still ahead of when I bought them two years ago, unlike other holdings in my over diversified portfolio.

    Onthe other hand, when I look at local stores P&G has far more shelf space than UN. I assume UN is more dominant in Europe, which is a bigger market.

    valueinvestor123 & Jake2 - please visit my blog and read a few posts before making such statements.

    Fox - I simply picked 10 funds that have historically been considered value investors - and I define that as buying something for less than it is worth.

    User 164258 - you are correct and the glitch is fixed on my blog. . .

    I guess I am dumb like you. I think seeing what some pretty bright people are buying and selling is a pretty good place to get ideas to do my own research. It also provides a good benchmark to compare to my own portfolio.

    You should do some further research on whether Buffett sold COP. I saw another post that he, in fact, got an expemption from the SEC to not report is position in that stock. Therefore, it simply droppped from the list and not sold. Given that COP is pretty cheap compared to the rest and that he and Gates were up in Canada looking at oil sands, it seems unlikely that he just punched out of this position in one quarter

    I don't see much "value" in this kind of blanket value listing. Would prefer something more akin to e-valu-ating individual stocks, industries, etc., rather than, "Wither the hedge herd, mate?". Reply

    I would like to know how you define "value" in the context that you are using it. I see one of the funds you mention has a position in First Solar. Reply

    How Have 'Traditional Defensive Stocks' Done in This Downturn? [view article]
    As a retired Colgate employee who ignored financial advisor's advice and hung on to a lot of company stock , I feel vindicated.
    They are well-positioned globally to grow in all the emerging economies and so far have been able to offset the high commodity prices.

    Rong,

    The price of Berkshire stock carries a substantial premium over the price of the stock portfolio it holds. This premium may or may not be justified; Buffett himself prefers buying shares of IR and NRG to buying back shares of BRK, and for a good reason too: he doesn't consider the price of BRK shares to be a bargain, unlike that of IR and NRG.

    Berkshire is not a mutual fund or an ETF. If the primary insurance and reinsurance businesses of Berkshire falter, an investor may do much better by holding KO, PG, WFC, AXP and the other stocks in the portfolio than by owning shares of BRK.

    Dow 30 Trading Ranges [view article]
    What is more important than listing trading ranges on these Dow components is listing the number of those Dow components that are being manipulated by their individual specialists for their own personal profits. Alcoa's specialist for example has set his issue up for a major decline in price in the coming two months.

    For more information on how this is done click on my web page and read the stock reports on AA and also read the documentation on how these individuals manipulate their issues at the expense of the investor. You have nothing to lose except the amount of time it takes you to read the information and you have a great deal to gain if you follow what they are doing and buy when they buy and sell when they sell.
