Buying and selling stock?

[Sako7STW]

The one I have been watching is STR . Questar Gas. They have paid dividends as well during the low.I know they are not going anywhere and they are currently expanding. they had a few issues like a lawsuit over a house that exploded killing a woman and the worker(I believe). They had some billing issues and stuff to that they recently settled. Since these have been done, the stock has steadily risen from a low of $20 and change to where thay were yesterday at $32 and change. Still a LONG ways from the high last year in July of $72. During its steady rise it has been swinging and thats what I am thinking to take advantage of.

I dont wanna be an idiot and tell you to risk 5K on (siri) Sirius XM radio, but I did. @ .15cents a share..

I think will go back to a $3+ stock in a few years if they can get thier chit together. S&P says buy. anyhow that measly $5K would be $93,750 if that happens.

btw, I have used etrade for 8 years.. I love it.

had a buddy that made $100,000+ on siris about 5 years ago. went and bought a new c5 vette and a escalade esv for the wife. now he has every thing for sale. the big guys fall haaard

a few good ones to buy are:

Catapiller
JohnDeere
Coke
Merke
USB

all are pounded down adn have strong balance sheets. strong blue chip companies. w/ obama's plan to rebuild infrastructure...the top two are a slam dunk.
These all give a few percent dividend too. more $$ than you'd make in a savings account.

USB just announced a dividend of .42/share. That's huge. Easy money. USB is a strong and healthy bank that will be around for the long haul. they had none of the sub prime crap on their books.

i think the WSJ just said they were #4 largest in the nation? Wells is another decent one.

all these have been beat down and are at a good price.

berkshire hathaway B is also a good buy for around $3000-3500 a share.

Cat and JD are global growth dependant and that has fallen along with the US The infrastructure bill will just keep them alive and not make them prosper. EMCOR is a better play on infrastructure.
Coke is a good slow growth stock and will probably remain so.
Merek? Merck a good pharma stock but like most needs stuff in the pipeline to be approved then you hit it big, no guarantee. Better to bet in Vegas
than Pharma stocks.
USB Although they stayed away from subprime (becasue they couldn't compete with the big guys) they will get hammered by credit card and Comercial real estate loses that they went heavy into. These two will dwarf subprime loses.

Just my 2 cents.

Learn to read balance sheets.

Learn to read balance sheets.

That hardly seems to matter at the moment. Even if a stock has a great balance sheet, if it is in a sector that is getting beat up, it still takes a dump along with the rest.

Long term, the strong balance sheet will win out over their peers.

Since your post:

Cat 43.65 down to 38.32 (-12%)
J Deere 38.75 down to 37.29 (-3.5%)
Coke 43.98 down 43.95 no change
Merck 26.98 up 27.89 (+3%)

Your picks are not looking to good you must be a stock broker or I guess now is even a better time to buy. Hope you didn't drop too much money on the sure things. I can read balance sheets also but the market is fixed, fundamentals mean squat. Get out while you can my 2 cents.
