Dividend Stocks for the Long Run

great tool at uor disposition now, thanks a lot. I can t believe all the garbage I see in those comments. Some are never and will never be satisfied on this planet. They should have landed on another planet.I would advise them to start their own world somewhere in the space and then we would all be happy. Thanks a lot for this posting Dividend Growth Investor.

My Dividend Portfolio: I Like Beer

I never thought we would be able to grab DEO at less than 50$ and here it is. At this price ,if you don t buy it you ll never buy it . Tell me what s not to like with this company! The eternal bears will of course find reasons to dislike it. All depends if you are buying it for a fast trade or for a long term investment. I am not a day trader so I am buying it without of course of betting the house on it.

A Buy & Hold Forever Dividend Stock Portfolio

makes a lot of sense to me.I own both ,stocks to buy and hold for the long term ( dividends higher than the average) and trading stocks to take advantage of the highs and the lows offered to us occasionally. Nothing wrong with those 2 styles of investing. To avoid the stories like GM why don t you use stop losses on all your buy and hold stocks? Also always keep in touch with the performance and news of your buy and hold. Buy and hold doesn t mean to ignore it completely forever, stay alert and be ready to make some changes if necessary.

Will You Look Back on Today as Your Greatest Missed Opportunity?

can t agree more with sharksm,sounds like a smart investor to me. I repeat INVESTOR, not a day trader or some sort of a gambler running after everything that is hot at the time to invest. I also own great companies like JNJ, PG ,GE ,HD , T ,VOD, DEO ,WFC ,ACN ,PAYX ,except that they are not stocks du jour but I am sure that they will have their days, just to be patient ,disciplined. Successful investors have a plan and stick to it.

Wall Street Breakfast - Sample Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News by SA Editor Rachael Granby Bank trio becomes duo. Wells Fargo (WFC) will become the largest U.S. bank by branches with its bid for Wachovia (WB), after Citigroup (C) withdrew from compromise negotiations late yesterday on concerns about the quality of some of Wachovia's assets. Wells Fargo, with a bid valued at $11.4B, expects the purchase to be completed by the end of the year, and denies it will have to absorb assets shakier than originally thought. Government considers next steps. As the financial crisis continues to worsen, the U.S. government is considering two dramatic steps to turn around, or at least slow, the damage: guaranteeing billions of dollars in bank debt and temporarily insuring all U.S. bank deposits. The moves, which would mark the government's most extensive intervention to date, are in discussion stages only. Credit stays frozen. As frozen credit markets refuse to thaw, the cost of default protection on corporate bonds reaches new global records amid investor concerns the credit crisis will trigger corporate failures as companies struggle to finance their businesses. Interbank lending remains limited, and borrowing from the Fed's expanded discount window continued its trend of setting new highs every week, as the total daily average rose to $420.2B vs. $367.8B last week.

Better Choices - Cramer's Lightning Round (10/15/08)

by SA Editor Rachael Granby

Stocks discussed in the lightning round session of Jim Cramers Mad Money TV program,
Wednesday, October 15.

Bullish Calls:

Continental Resources (CLR) -- "This is a remarkable decline. All of the high quality ones are down so much, I can't go against it. This is where you pull the trigger.
3M (MMM) -- The moment this stock starts yielding 5%, I'm a buyer. Until then, keep your powder dry.

Bearish Calls:

Computer Sciences (CSC) -- This is a company that was going to be bought, but they passed up the chance. Now I don't want to buy it."
Annaly Mortgage (NLY) -- I think this is a business model that needs to borrow money. Definitively do not buy."
Northrop Grumman (NOC) -- You can't own the defense stocks right now. If I had to own one, I'd look at Lockheed Martin (LMT) with its good dividend.
