What Did You Buy Today?
Purchased 25 shares MSFT at $51.75 to bring my holding to 340 shares.
Added to my position in LB this morning. Happy to accumulate below $80.
Got my end of tax season bonus and went on a buying spree. 15 shares of AXP in a taxable account. In my wife's ROTH, 18 shares of DEO. In my IRA, 20 shares of SO and 17 shares of XOM.

Yes, I like AXP's growth prospects, ironically.  It's been beaten down so badly this past year.
The AAPL drop was tempting, but I decided to add to my ABT position today instead.

I bought FE, AEP and ABT today!

Good choice in light of today's announcement of purchasing St. Jude Medical. You weren't trading on inside information, were you? Dodgy Tongue

Took a good hit today but in the long term I think the combination will be quite successful.

Opened a position in SBUX at $56, 40 shares.
Orbital ATK
Last week,

Added twice to AAPL

Struggled with the choice but once it handsomely broke the 2% yield I just couldn't ignore the long term investment opportunity to add to the position.

Divested HAL for a small profit--I still like the company; however, I favor integrated oil companies due to the diversification of upstream, midstream and downstream operations. It's my personality, I like to be well rounded when given the chance. Hell, what can I say? I'm still evolving as an investor after all these years.

I added UNP, XOM, EVA and LMT today. EVA is so undervalued.
Purchases have been few and far between but I did round up CALM to a full position a week or two ago.
