    I hope you're right. COP is the first stock I ever bought and while it's a small position (I'm a young investor in a Roth account) I am hoping to hold it for years to come! Looking to add if it drops below $58 or so during earnings season. Thanks for the article

  • ConocoPhillips (COP) is in the process of divesting $9.6B in assets this year, and Oppenheimer's Fadel Gheit expects it to successfully apply proceeds to help fund new projects and increased production. In raising his target price on COP to $70 from $65, Gheit says the strategy, coupled with a high dividend yield, could lead to 20% multiple expansion and boost the stock. [View news story]
    COP with 3x normal volume today but little movement really. Surely Gheit's upgrade isn't the only reason for the excess volume.. What do y'all think? Long COP

  • The Better Burger Threat To McDonald's [View article]
    Whenever I roll up to a 5 Guys and the line is to the door and kids are playing inside the store because it makes for a "fun day" for them, I will start to believe MCD's is losing significant market share. 5 guys is very good.. but not exactly "healthy" or "fresh" either. Thanks for the article.

  • Some Good Tax News For Roth IRA Investors [View article]
    This is a huge advantage in my opinion! As long as you are willing to take more risk with your emergency funds. My question is how easily can you get this money? My wife and I have ~5 months emergency fund which would allow one of us to max out our Roth for 2012 and a portion of another for 2013. However, if we did have an emergency or decided to take a cruise etc., is it easy to do or is it a big tax hassle at the end of they year?
