BP's new wind farms in the US are interesting. I like pivots to energy diversification.

This is one of the reasons I feel the supermajors are safe in the long run if people try to shift away from using oil.  Any new energy technology, whether it's solar, wind, natgas, will be spearheaded by the large energy companies.  They'll either develop the new technology or they will buy it outright.

Can you expand on this please?

Sure Rapidacid, 

A simple catalyst here, 30% of the US energy grid runs on coal. Now that coal is basically becoming illegal, you need to fill the gap with something. Natural gas seems to be where many grids are going, along with renewables of course. But natural gas seems to be a bigger chunk of it, and the majors are getting behind it as well.

Update.

Bought WLL at $3.80 and $4.75 about 5-6 weeks ago and it's now hitting close to $11.

Gotta love the oil market!

STX looks to be a good buy down here now after the sell of . Pays a .63 dividend as well.

Today, I added to my positions of AAPL, CSCO, INTC, VIAB (missed out on yesterday's low), NRZ, QCOM

Started a small position with EMR

[navyasw02]

Sold HDV (high div ETF)

Bought OHI and added to QCOM

[crimsonghost747]

I know it's around the ATH price but I grabbed some more HON. Pretty good report today so I feel it's ok to add a bit even at these prices.

Also a tiny tiny buy in CIBC (reinvested dividends)

[Rasec]

Today might be the day I nibble SBUX... let's see if it hits $56! I have an open order for 40 (new position).

Added to positions in ADM and EMR
