Just a quick follow-up on my previous post. I took a look at MO's website, and I confirmed the new dividend is $0.29/quarter. At yesterday's closing price, that is a 5.2% dividend yield. Still not too shabby.

NO I listen to 1010 wins in early the morning and tune into CNBC as early as I can get out of bed.

Sorry -- your dividend rate will be nowhere near 13.4%.

Now that I did not know but the stock has moved up in the last week since I bought it.
Look at this REIT stock. I own a lot of shares and that pays a nice div for an under $8 stock, HRP

Watching Cramer's Mad Money, and he has his Kevlar stocks. These are stocks that are a little more bullet proof than the average stock.
His list:
MO (a Frank pick, I have owned and have dumped)
FCX (a stock I have owned on and off for some time)
FWLT
RIG
Just sharing a little Cramer for you this evening.

If Cramer is pushing it that means time to sell in 3-4 days.
here is another one that I had years ago and came close to re buying last week, Had the chance at buying at upper $12 low $13 FCH Pays $.35 a share.

Bought XIDE last week at 13.65 on the pullback to the 50 SMA. Now at 15.88. Chart still looks pretty good, but it may be swimming against a down trending market short term.
Financials look weak, so I shorted the sector by going long SKF today. We shall see..............

If you are going to throw away money, why not just give it to me?
That stock is down 13% today. You may pick up some up and down action on that stock, but, something in that market with the price of oil doing what it is, it is only going to get more hurt.
I wish you luck.

You could go with USG (not that I am making recommendations). It is at $2.50, up over 6.8%. Gold is getting hot again.
