Wendys (WEN)

My patience with this company is paying off.  Now that they have doubled the dividend payout I am collecting  3.6% yield while I wait for the turnaround.  It's already underway and starting to pay off.  I think we will see $6.50 a share before the end of 2013, maybe even break out past $7!  Good luck investing.  Tony

Happy Thanksgiving

McDonalds (MCD)

This stock had gotten extremely cheap in the last few months.  It's trading close to it's 52 week low.  They once again raised their dividend for this quarter.  This cheap price is a sale on their company's stock.  I am buying more shares at this level.   Two years from now after collecting the rising dividend and a 50% price rise you won't be sorry.  Good luck investing.  Tony

Wendys Update (WEN)

Looks like our patience with this Stock Wendys (WEN) is finally beginning to pay off. Yesterday they doubled their Dividend to now yield 3.5%.  Also announced a $100 million share buyback program.  Whole market is down but as of this post they are up almost 3%.  Looks like the store remodeling plan is working with up to 25% increase in the upgraded stores.   I can see $6.50 a share within the next year for this stock.  Good luck investing. Tony

Barnes and Noble Update

Barnes and Noble (BKS) stock has held up nicely during the market correction we have seen over the last week.  I look for Christmas sales to really pump up this stock.  Could we see $20 a share by April?  I think it's quite possible.  Good luck investing. Tony

Today's Market Correction

I'm glad the market went down today.  Things were getting overheated.  A few more down days and I will start aggressively buying some of the quality Dividend paying stocks I have been tracking.  Two perfect examples would be McDonalds (MCD) and Coke (KO).  Both raise their Dividends year after year, way more than inflation I may add.  Even if the stocks go no where for 10 years you still make positive gains after inflation.  This is what investing is about.  It's not gambling or speculating, when you do it right.  Good luck investing.  Tony

Barnes and Noble

I love being right about stocks on this BLOG.  Of course I'm not always right but time has a way of healing bad picks sometimes.  So far my timing has been great on Barnes & Noble (BKS).   I told you all the Nook business alone was worth far more than the market cap of the whole company.  The stock is starting to finally factor this in.  It's not too late to get in on this one.  $20 a share in the short term is very possible.  God luck investing.  Tony
