Cash Upgrades from These 3 Dividend Stocks

I just checked EPD for last dividend and it shows a payout of .54 so there couldn't have been a 13% increase in it if it was raised to only .55

What Will Happen When Homebuyer Tax Credit Expires?

My son is attempting to buy a condo right now.He has made 3 offers on 'short sale" properties offering to pay their asking price. Not one of the banks has responded and its been 6 weeks now (BOA and WFC). His realtor states that 1st Time Buyers are 75% of the market now. Take that away and watch those foreclosures increase and housing sink even further!

Dow and Rohm & Haas - Why They Go Well Together

Good points JR,
I played this long a few times and yesterday I sold at $59.14 although I think its safe to sell puts at least through Feb expiration. Beyond that its too risky for me, anything could happen although I believe $78 is dead. Maybe at $66 they could do this without borrowing themselves into extinction. But then the question is what does ROH want.......for now Im sitting back and watching but the upside appears limited here for the next week at least.

First Call of a Double-Dip Recession: Setting Up a Market Bottom?

Does anyone realize the mortgages due to reset may now reset at a rate much lower?/ Seems everyone thinks the ARM's will adjust much higher, yet the rates these mortgages are linked to have gone down.
