Your stock 'BUY' list.
 

I think we have a long way to go before we find our footing, but I am working on my short list. There are some obvious blue chips that are being irrationally devalued, but I'm more curious about the slightly less obvious.

I'll start: CAO

http://www.cskauto.com/Company.aspx

They own a variety of auto parts stores across the US. Murrays, Shucks, Cragen, Checker. I believe they are the biggest in the sector. I don't see how our economic woes could be anything be good news for them. Their stock is up 100% since Jan, and they have seen highs approaching $20 (currently around $10) in the past.

Come on, dish you Maria Bartiromo fans.....:D

This obviously isn't anything new, but most people forget to look around them and make a note of the companies whose services they use frequently and enjoy.

So when is Pelican going public?

Subscribed.

I just bought more Ford (F) at $2.56. If it gets low enough someone will buy them out.

What's Warren Buffet buying?

Nothing any of us have access to.

If I had access to the same deals he does I would commit as much capital as I could.

Buffett took a position in Kraft about two months ago. I bought in soon after. it hasn't gone up much, but it hasn't gone down, either. It's a good stock to watch. Has recession resistance and some growth potential.

Buffet has said that he only holds two stocks in his personal portfolio - Berkshire Hathaway and Wells Fargo.

And he uses the BH money to do what he wants. I believe when everyone was saying that "Warren Buffet bought $5bil of Goldman Sachs" and $3bil of GE, what really happened was that BH spent the money.

Dentsply International - Ticker = XRAY

If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago, you would have $49.00 left.

With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.

With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.

But if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have $214.00 cash.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle. It's called the 401-Keg.

I rest my case.

I'll have to wait and see how the loan situation is for farmers in the months to come. I've been looking at Monsanto. The sell seeds.

Looking at the thread with our suggestions for a single stock pick for 2008, I think I'll be using the suggestions on this thread as "stocks to short"!
