I would love to hear more about this. I asked the President of Yellow Transportation about plans that would pull freight away and was told there are no plans. However this would pull a great deal of freight.Would like to hear more.On Sep 28 07:54 AM User 202446 wrote:

Hedge Fund Tracking: Atticus Capital (Timothy Barakett) [view article]
This is an admirable series of articles. The issue of how to do hedge fund due diligence often comes up in the context of hedge fund hiring / employment (which is our niche). Your column will be high on our list of recommendations for this. ReplyYRC Worldwide Keeps Truckin' - Cramer's Lightning Round (6/18/08) [view article]

Excellent article ReplyDividend Investment Myths [view article]
agree with captain ccs: the point (a point) of buying dividend stocks is to take advantage of long term compounding. A ten year period would be more persuasive. ReplyDividend Investment Myths [view article]
Thanks captainccs for your comments. You are absolutely right about the fact that I'm data mining. However, as with any stock purchase you face the potential for downside risk when you buy. For this reason, I only data mine the stocks that are part of Mergent's Dividend Achiever Index (approximately 350 companies) so that I don't experience buyer's remorse once I'm in a stock. If the price falls after the purchase, I can easily "justify" my position with the mantra of "buy and hold." In the meantime, I'll be compensated for my wait.As you pointed out, I selectively examine only those that pay dividends. Of course, in reality I only chose those that are current and former Dividend Achievers. This means that I forego the opportunity to get the highest yields and the stellar performing non-dividend paying stocks. However, I am assured by the fact that management has an interest in seeing that the shareholders are compensated for their wait for the "promises" to deliver to materialize.

Dividend Investment Myths [view article]
Intentional or not, what you listed as yearly performance appears to be performance off a recent 52-week low, two very different things. ReplyDividend Investment Myths [view article]
Buy dividend payers and avoid financials! ReplyDividend Investment Myths [view article]
Using the growth since the last 52 week low as an indicator of long term grow is just pure nonsense. All it shows is that these companies do bounce back and that is just reversion to the mean working. The only other path would have been to zero. This is an example of data mining,Also note these two statements:
>> I always focus on those Dividend Achievers that are within 5% of their 1-year low
>> When considering stocks to buy, avoid those that are in industries which are at or near a new high.
Dividends are used to select a universe of stocks but nowhere is there a comparison between this universe and a universe of non divided paying stocks. All the above says is buy low, sell higher.
Of the above list I hold FDO, the 5th or 6th highest bouncer-back on the list at 70.45%. I bought it three years ago when I thought it was at a low. Current Average Growth Rate (CAGR), a dismal 4.4%. Dividends did little to support this stock. Reply

The wheels are off the cart and now the cart is going into the ditch. We have to deleverage this market and control the wild shorts and traders. Many people today have nothing but money in the market, no positions either in stocks or bonds. ReplyWall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [view article]
