Summary:
This week the buys continued and no sells were found. AAPL created a lot of buzz this week as earnings were less than impressive as iphone and ipad sales dropped just short of 20% year over year. They still made a killing and have a vault of cash but the stock market did not like the news. Dividend investors found some value there though as it was the 3rd highest trending stock this week. DIS and WFC still holding strong in the top positions.

I suspect we'll see a lot of Apple buys this month.
ReplyDeleteI think you are right. Especially with the dividend raise and recent stock price!
DeleteI always check this see page to see who is buying what,what is DGI community looking at.
ReplyDeleteMe too, love it! I used to do the same thing so I know it can be a bit of work. Glad Adam does it so I don't have to. :-o
DeleteBeen doing this as well! Thanks for putting it together - nice to see others buying WFC =]
DeleteThanks everyone! Glad to see people are finding it useful. If you have any suggestions for improvement, please let me know!
DeleteThanks for the DivHut mention. My buy was $500. My total investment in HCP is $3,022 from previous buys.
ReplyDeleteRight you are! Thanks for the correction. Updated the post with this change!
DeleteBoy do you keep some meticulous records. Great info here. Good to see people jumping on AAPL. Looks ripe.
ReplyDeleteHi DB! Thanks! It can be a lot of work, but I have a lot of it automated, so it lessons some of the number crunching, graphs, etc... AAPL under $100 always peaks interest. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for keeping this up. I know first hand how much work goes into this so definitely appreciate the ongoing efforts, especially since you log ALL the buys. We only log buys with $300 or more and it still seems like a lot of work sometimes. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing my friend. Best wishes. AFFJ
Thank you AFFJ! Some aspects are a bit tedious, but I am really interested in what everyone is buying anyway, so I enjoy doing it. Take care and keep at it!
