  • $N/A

Ford Preferred TOPS...I have to love a stock with a redemption value of $50 if it gets called, currently pays almost a 10% annual dividend at its current value of about $34/share....finally, I'll take the contrarian road and bet on Ford in general.

Verizon is one of the Dow Dogs and solid communications player in the United States...I'll take the dividend along with the presumed performance you would expect from a Dow Dog.

Its gone nowhere for the last several years despite solid earnings improvements Y/Y. I think its poised for a modest move up despite its existing huge market cap.

Another Dow Dog, but a relatively solid drug company with a decent dividend that is currently out of favor because of recent bad news on their pipeline

Q. VLO is on sale.
11.12.09 | 16:34 PM Asked by fine tune your disciplines

A. So is BP, CVX, and XOM. The question is,
will the sale get better? However, it
does have an unsolicited offer by TRC
Capital Corp. to buy up to 5 million
shares of the refiner’s common stock
at a price of $16.55 per share, so there
is a semi-floor at that price.
