Safety and a little momentum, which seems almost impossible now, and diversification. Mentally I'm having trouble shifting from momentum stocks to safety stocks. I haven't taken any losses of initial investment but I've lost some profits by selling on the wrong day. All but one of my stocks have dividends for this rotten market.

-
AAPL
Apple Inc - $96.87
- +5.88%
- $97.27
Trying to bottom fish. Good fundamentals. Definitely long term.

-
GS
Goldman Sachs Grp - $115.06
- -5.18%
- $117.19
My favorite stock. Gambling that it doesn't have much hidden subprime problem and is managed as well as I think it is. I took profits and I'm bottom fishing for more shares.

-
KO
Coca Cola Co The - $45.38
- -1.41%
- $45.60
High quality, but boring, safety stock for volatile market.

-
CEO
Cnooc Ltd Ads - $70.44
- -9.37%
- $75.02
Took profits on NOV because it's been going down for so long. Purchased some CEO as it was going up instead of down and the fundamentals look okay. Would like some opinions on this stock. Not expecting anything positive in the near term.

-
MHS
Medcohealth Solut - $37.33
- -5.11%
- $38.14
I don't like health industry stocks as they seem so risky, but fundamentals look good and the type of business seems timely. Cramer says this sector is great right now so I bought a little.

-
MSFT
Microsoft Cp - $21.53
- -7.83%
- $23.03
Completing my position in tech which is AAPL and MSFT for the long term.

-
SWK
Stanley Works The - $32.99
- -7.72%
- $34.09
Fundamentals look great and it covers home builders and retail. Long term.

-
FLS
Flowserve Cp - $53.29
- -16.17%
- $62.03
Should be good for building refineries and other infrastructure, which we need now. Long term.
