  • Intel Drops An Atomic Bomb On ARM's 'Abomination' [View article]
    The introduction of the iPhone 5S and iPhone 6 could mean iOS will overtake Android in worldwide marketshare by 2015.

    The Yankee Group is forecasting that by 2016, Apple's share of the smartphone market in the US will have grown to 37 per cent while Android will remain at 34 per cent.

    Is there an "Intel Inside" roadmap for iPhone in Cupertino?

    There needs to be a clear and compelling advantage to a mobile manufacturer, to cause it to design in a new chip into a new motherboard and to migrate the OS and all the apps to a different instruction set.

    A better chip from Intel is not a clear and compelling advantage to the system builder.

  • Keeping Track Of A 30 Stock Dividend Portfolio Can Be Easy [View article]
    Cut down on discretionary spending and use some of the dividend income to buy more shares, at a lower price. That increases my future income stream.

  • I've Never Owned A Rolex, But Maybe It's Time To Invest In Taubman [View article]
    "The legendary investor, frequently shown in the annual Forbes list billionaire lineup, sports an 18K Rolex Datejust, also known as the Rolex President."

    Brad, my Dad gave me his 18K gold Rolex Datejust many years ago. It is a beautiful piece that he bought in the fifties, on a trip he and my Mom took to Switzerland. Back then gold prices were fixed ($55/troy oz I think).

    It sits in a safety deposit box. I don't feel comfortable wearing such an expensive watch and I can't bring myself to sell it because of sentimental value. Guess my son will be inheriting it.

  • The Good News And Bad News For Long-Term General Electric Shareholders [View article]
    Personally, with the exception of a larger stake in KMP, all my other holdings are limited to between 2% and 3% of portfolio value. Core holdings however may be as much as 5%. Beyond that level, I look for opportunities to rebalance.

    Most of the K-1 and TurboTax interactions were pretty straight forward. However, there where a couple of places where it was not so obvious. Places where the codes used in the K-1 were not programmed into TurboTax.

  • Take The Drama Out Of Selling Dividend Stocks [View article]
    Good article Tim,

    Selling an overvalued DG stock should be viewed as an opportunity to exchange the position for another, better valued, high quality stock offering better yield. The flip side of "booking profits" is that it increases one's dividend income stream. So, it is important to always have several stocks in the "watch list" for when the time comes.

    Tim,

    Day trading is fun. Long term DG investing is boring. At my age, boring is good.

    Arthur, never said you were dumb. As a matter of fact, your article was one of the best I've seen on the subject.

    My KMP is also in a trust. Unfortunately, I lack a CPA in my immediate family. :(
