Why I Ask...

BAC or WFC - because all the smaller banks are loosing customers who fear their collapse - these customers should flee to large banks like Bank of America and Wells Fargo - where BAC has the larger dividend right now with a CEO who says he need not cut while WFC just raised theirs...!

GE - current and future energy, health as well as pretty much everything else is intertwined with this magic company, and it is yielding over 4% right now - good time to start dripping into this one...

BP - integrated global oil with an eye to the future for diverse energy portfolios and a yield over 5%

RDSA - integrated global oil with an eye to the future for diverse energy portfolios and a yield over 4.5%

FRO - safest and most versatile transportation of required petroleum crudes - the fundamental ingredient for just about everything modern you can imagine + huge yields which vary wildly according to tanker rates and bookings

T - benefiting from a huge influx of eager new customers who want to be part of the iPhone - these are most likely going to prove to be good customers - this flock is characteristic of positive enthusiasm toward accepting/using advanced services which are being/planned-to-be delivered over AT&T networks to iPhone users + dividend yield over 5%

AAPL - this growth stock has only just begun and is a good technology stock too


The Risky Side of Life:
PBR - risk has gotten a lot higher here as the Brazilian Govt. is considering curtailing PBR's involvement in the new oil finds to strictly service roles - they will still make mucho dinero and are trading below fair value for their current expected performance even barring the unexplored areas of the fields

SQM RIO IPI POT MON - commodities got these, down but they'll come back another day

FCEL AVAV AMSC ESLR NTDOY - remain in the running to be great someday .. holding steadfast here still seems likely to pay

ABB BOOM XTO SSL EMN BCKBF - not much more pain left to suffer here either ... right...

It appears to be all uphill from here

Slowing Tankers...

FRO has classic Head & Shoulders with a broken neckline - but ships are slowing - rates are climbing...

Charles' hair tossed at sea has unexpectedly slowed Frontline's tankers 3.8% since July...

FYI: Pentagon Claims that tankers in the sky (with diamonds) are more important than survivability, airlift, and operational utility...

So it goes again as the stale news continues to proclaim - well you get the rest - or not...
