That's why I think the tea party people are not very smart. They held the debt ceiling hostage and as a result, it cost us a trillion dollars. Exactly the opposite of what they were trying to do. ]]> Fri, 21 Dec 2012 13:56:26 -0500 Last year's downgrade cost us a trillion dollars. That's why I think the tea party people are not very smart.

Defaulting on our debt would be an unmitigated disaster.

Maybe you can answer this in your next article, but my question is, from that list of blue chip REITs, why wouldn't I simply choose the one(s) with the highest payout? Why wouldn't everyone choose NNN since it has the highest payout ratio? What makes TCO attractive in spite of its 2.37% dividend yield? ]]> Mon, 10 Dec 2012 09:46:24 -0500

Wouldn't that mean that rents could go up, mitigating the damage from rising interest rates? There are lot of moving parts in an economy, not just interest rates and interest rates don't move absent something causing them to move. ]]> Thu, 29 Nov 2012 16:08:22 -0500 If interest rates return to historical norms, couldn't it be because the overall economic environment changed for the better?

And then tell us WHY they don't own it. Maybe they have other stocks that they prefer. What stocks do they prefer?

It's just mystifying to me when an article says "Don't Pass On This Long Term Gem" and then the author says he is passing on it.

I think it's a reasonable question. ]]> Wed, 15 Aug 2012 10:31:35 -0400

In practice I find it very hard to plunge completely into the market or an individual stock. But speaking from what I think is pure logic, if you think that there will be a better entry point, you should wait, and if you don't think there will be a better entry point, you should go ahead and go all in. ]]> Fri, 15 Jun 2012 06:12:05 -0400
