I started investing in the winter with the CNR.TO price in the low 80s - even though I realized that I was overpaying a bit. Decided to start averaging down, now that its in the low 70s. Will average down again in the future.

Added to CVX, ETP, started a position in EPD. BTW, I was told that COP is officially laying off around 10% of their workforce worldwide, probably regretting the decision to diversifying their refinery business.

[DRILLINDK]

Initiated positions in WPC, VTR and purchased more O at the morning lows. Stalking JNJ and XOM

[ChadR]

20 shares of RDS.B. Initial position.

Obviously they're cheaper than yesterday I bought more of CVX, KMI and EPD, also started position in VTR, O, HPC and OHI.

All new positions--85 shares in WPC, 35 in XOM and BX 150 shares.

With the exception of BX, all these stocks lost between $0.20-0.40 by closing. The drop would have bothered me, but I learned a lesson last week.

Even though I had a very strong cash position built up, with the very intention of easing into oil...I just turned into a zombie Monday and Tuesday! I didn't move a single dollar. I Kept waiting for "the bottom" .... and ended up missing some very good opportunities.

Lesson learned: I have funds to average into positions, so that's what I'm going to do! $2500 earning almost 4% at XOM is better than $2500 depreciating in the bank (waiting for $68).

LOL!

Yeah, thought I should cool it a bit. Plus, XOM is back above the lowest price I managed to capture last week. If it gets back to 70 or below, I'll probably get back to it...

Also, been using up my dry powder pretty quickly this last week or two, enjoying the dip greatly. Thinking I should calm down and keep some dry in case it keeps going down.
