Was nice tonight looking at Merril Edge and seeing the red box with the words, "None of your holdings are currently down in value." 11.71% up for the day (sum of all gains.) Only 1 divi hit the account so far this month. Expecting 3 more later this month. With the $50 per week I transfer in and those divis I am looking at probably making another purchase early next month depending on what the market is doing at that time. I think its comical I get a monthly "bank deposit interest" paid to my Merrill account thats a little more than 1/2 of what I was getting when I had my money in the savings accounts doing nothing. OHI made a huge run up in just the past month. Nice pick and nice move "ringing the register." Satellitedriver, I don't have any experience with "funds" other than picking them from a small list at Prudential. I do not have the knowledge to feel safe investing in them as there are so many variables within them to consider. Individual stocks are easier for me so thats where I am in the broker account.
