Bert’s Recent Buy – Target (TGT)

Posted on by

I just couldn’t sit on the sideline any longer.  For those of you that have followed our blog over the last month, you would have realized that there was one stock I have been fixated on…Target (TGT).  It was the number 1 stock on my June watch list for a reason.  Over the month, I was patiently waited for the right moment to strike.  When I went to buy, the stock price increased.  When I wasn’t able t access the internet to actually purchase the stock, the price fell.   Finally, the stars aligned as the markets had two terrible days after the Brexit situation.   Time to check out why and most importantly, how much TGT stock I purchased this week!

 We all knew I couldn’t wait too much longer to make a purchase.  The stock market has continued it’s wild trajectory, but I was able to strike a big name company when they were starting to climb back up.  Yes, I was able to shoot my bow and arrow at the “Red Bullseye” in one of everyone’s favorite US retailers in Target corporation (TGT).  Very excited and let’s find out why I bought it, the price points and the metrics!

Dividend Diplomats Recent Buy – CZNC

Posted on by

The Dividend Diplomats were back at it again!  Yes, both of us purchased the same company approximately two weeks ago and we wanted to share the purchase article with you.  And yes, this is the second time we have both purchased a stock at the same time in 2016.   Due to both of being busy with work, traveling, vacations, festivity planning, etc.. we were taken away from writing this article closer to the date of the stock purchases we made.  Given that we are both Financial Institution auditors, we purchased a bank that is already friendly in our portfolio – Citizens & Northern (CZNC).  Time to cash in those checks for stock!

Lanny’s February Stock Watch List

Posted on by

Needless to say, the stock market has been a “mean green” this past week and man, the buying opportunities are drying up and fast!  It feels like it was just yesterday that we were battling low oil prices and other commodity fluctuations, that was ultimately causing the entire market to head south for the winter.  Then, the curveball of the green machine of the stock market kept roaring this week and was breaking some ground – even with some of the major macro economic factors still in play.  I can’t make much of it, but I do have a watch list of stocks that I have my eyes on.  Come check them out!

The Diplomats were back and at it again!  Loving the end of February, the turmoil and the continuous short-term declines in the market that unlocks opportunity in just a blink of an eye.  We were on the hot seat this week, and boy did we take some advantage of market fluctuations.  Wednesday was a well placed trade on a wonderful asset management company – T. Rowe Price (TROW).  Let’s see how, when and what led the purchase by both of us!

Recent Buy – Pfizer (PFE)

Posted on by

I couldn’t sit on the sidelines too long.  After a strong month of purchased in January, which saw me add to my current stakes in  ADM and CZNC,  I wanted to keep the momentum rolling.  At the end of my January dividend income article, I mentioned that I purchased a stock but haven’t disclosed the purchase yet to the community.  Well, that is about to change.  Last week I unloaded some capital and purchased a stake in Pfizer (PFE).  Let’s see why!
