      Be careful of PFE's dividend. There are reasons PFE's share price is in the dumps. It starts with l and ends with ipitor. And its going off patent and PFE has no pipeline. Oct 05 05:37 PM
    • Financial Crisis Hits REITs ETFs Hard [view article]
      Llook at the one year on VNQ, but it hasn't done much, which goes to say maybe it has a lot of bad news priced in? It took its blows at the end of 07 obviously, but if u had invested at the beginning of the year with dividends you'd be even, not terrible considering YTD market is much worse... Sep 22 09:50 PM

      Where were you on July 15th? I bought USB then, locked up a 7.8% yield and have gained 50% in stock appreciation. Buy on weakness. Only mistake, not buying more companies Sep 08 05:29 PM

      water is not the oil of the next century. there is a lot of water around. And as keithfeather mentioned, just takes some energy to fix it. Same can't be said about oil, although as an investment opportunity, its interesting Aug 28 02:40 PM
    • Possible Lehman Bid Nixed by Korea [view article]
      1 or 2 blind dates? how is it a blind date after 1...just thought I would point out a bad joke. Hopefully he regulates korean financial institutions better than he makes jokes. Aug 26 11:58 AM
    • GE: Exceptional Total Return Potential at the Current Price [view article]
      GE is a good company, it makes boatloads of money, but oh wait, the stock price does nothing. Stay away from GE, there are better stocks elsewhere. Its just too hard to exceed expectations, and that's why GE stock doesn't do anything. Another example is MSFT Aug 25 09:58 AM

      so remind me why anyone would not do a simple etf like TIPS which is AAA instead of something with less yield? Aug 10 10:59 PM

      I remember Ken Lewis (ceo of BAC) making a sneering comment something to the effect of "we wont use our petty cash to buy an investment bank" Jul 29 07:16 PM
    • Time To Buy Banks? Proceed With Caution. [view article]
      Maybe this represents climbing out of the bottom, maybe not. Who knows if we'll test these lows again but it honestly doesn't matter, next time it dips, buy. it's really that simple, enjoy the rally for now! Jul 18 06:46 PM
    • Time To Buy Banks? Proceed With Caution. [view article]
      Not to point out the obvious or anything, but you buy things when they are lower, not when they are higher, so you get more shares for the same cost. Example, the news was TERRIBLE tuesday morning, USB is still earning its dividend, so I bought, at 22.1 and locked ina 7.7% yield. Now i'm up 30% on principle also. Obviously not all my picks have done that but you buy on weakness, when things are low. When the good goes down with the bad, thats when to buy. By the time everyone starts feeling good and cnbc says buy banks, theyll already be up 30%. Jul 18 06:42 PM
