I always knew that HEINZ would be a great choice. It has great brand awareness and metrics. I mean c'mon, what other ketchup do you put on your fries, cheesesteaks, burgers, etc. Yup!

Pepsi is the best stock to own before the Superbowl. Tostito's/Dorito's/Lays washed down with some Pepsi eating some KFC chicken (former Pepsi). Next best is Bud.

Hey Tim,
I know that Buffett has said on many occasions that the individual investor should own an index fund rather than stock-picking. In this case, do you think it'd be wise to purchase the SPY index or just go stock-picking. Not sure what the recommendation is.

I totally agree with this. Same goes for my S&P index-like in my 401K brokerage (Schwabb). In the top 10 holdings, Apple was first with 5% eight. The others were 2%!

No worries. I wasn't referring to anything specific in your article or about you. Honestly, I didn't even read it but went by the title. I was just venting. And I don't know who's been that accurate. Sprott, Morgan, Chapman have been hit or miss.

Thanks Michael Fitzsimmons! Yeah, I wish'd I own COP beforehand....along with KRFT and Abbott but all is well. I did buy PSX separately right after the spinoff.
I'm debating whether to purchase COP or OXY at these levels. What are your thoughts? Obviously I know your bullish on COP. I do like the metrics (P/E, ROE, ROIC) on OXY.

Trying to ease my way into COP. Anyone know why it dropped from $72 to $54 in April of last year. Was this due to the spinoff? And even if there is a spinoff, I wouldn't expect the "mother ship" to fall by that much.
