What stocks are you buying tomorrow as dowjones lost 630+ points today?  Are you planning to still wait?

These are in my watchlist:

MRK - Merck
INTC - Intel
WM - Waste Management
SO - Southern Company
NLY - Annaly Capital
PEB - Pebblebrook Hotel Trust
KO - Coca Cola
BAC - Bank of America Corp.
GE - General Electric
PG - Procter and Gamble

Any thoughts on these?

.pk,.ob means pinksheet(otc, pennystock all that high risk stuff) the company was probably delisted from the big boards ...

I lean more towards trading than investing ..but if you were to buy a dividend paying stock please do consider buying after the company pays the dividends (10 - 20 days as i see on most charts) when the price dips and the uptrend starts again till the next dividend payment) and also consider splits in the history as well as the future

I did not know .pk stands for pink sheet.  Good to know.  Thanks. 

So, are you a day trader?  Do you do this for your living?  I wish I could do that rather than being in a rat race trying to get one rung up the corporate ladder.

 @Tyranny:

Checked out your blog.  Good stuff there.  But did not accept my comment for some reason, tried several times.
 
I like the general profiles of all the companies you mentioned above, except LF as I can't imagine their sales on steady growth anymore due to the mushrooming of apps.  Will have to look into these more in detail.
 
I need to learn how to trade small caps.  Seems like a good money maker.  But one has to watch the trading cost, it can add up.
 
Cheers.

Thanks Nepali_American,

Check out speedtrader, they charge 39 cents per 100 shares commission, i use them for small caps turns out cheaper for me for my trading sizes which is generally not above a 1000
yeah i had someone else having problems with posting comments on my blog too gotta look into that later...

if you are feeling risky today check out LGFTY i put it up on another thread at 62 cents now its already at 71 m in at 58s avg

 LGFTY.  Wow!!

52 wk high @ 42, previous close 19, now at 0.80.  

Whoever shorted this stock is now a millionaire.

With CFO and Deloitte resigning, sounds super risky, but then it is at 80 cents.

Here are mine. My picks were biased hoping to see a stable performance on the global market, and I want to believe that energy stocks will double in 10 years. Gold is on my wishlist but right now it's too expensive to buy.

I didn't have much of a formula, just looked at market cap and performance for last few years and future growth potential. And try to diversify in different sectors.

PBR.A
JNJ
VRX
GSK

AAPL

Good stuff Sarika.  Where have I heard that name?  Is it a celebrity name?

Lot of them are nice dividend paying stocks.  Just make sure you buy them at the low end.  Tyranny gave a good advice in his post earlier: buy those stocks couple of weeks after they pay dividends.

I too bought some AAPL yesterday at $363.

I am building my portfolio during this downturn, so my picks are mostly mid and large caps.  I am keeping my eye on the following today:
  • crm
  • gs
  • mro
  • bp
  • cop
You can probably make money quicker with small caps.  Tyrannyoflogic above seems to know those stocks.

I think I told you guys all sprint needs is an iphone. If the rumors are true I can see sprint around 10 dollars very soon.

 I hope so, Anon.  Bought whole lotta S at $3.50 last week, then it began to sink.  Now it is bouncing back.

I bought Sprint last week at $3.50.  Hmmm... am ambivalent about this buy.

Sprint will be selling iPhone 5 this fall.  Good news for Apple, not sure if it is a good news for Sprint.  Apple tends to squeeze dry its partners.

I am thinking maybe Sprint will be bought out which might fetch a premium stock price, but when.  Not sure if I should hold on to S.  Any thoughts?
