and I guess if everything goes through my CELG will be turned into BMY and cash--so--I guess my wish about CELG providing a dividend will happen sooner then later but not the way I thought...I wanted to keep accumulating this one oh well....

We're even because I never planned on owning any CELG but I guess I will soon.   I think BMY-CELG will be a powerhouse.  But I hate mega mergers as the buyer always overpays and the market punishes.  This one may take time to yield fruit but the new drugs will come.   I have been accumulating BMY for months and I got in a a bit too early, just like always. 

Trying to get some KO via a put sale.  The gotta own stock I never owned.  I'm good with the current dividend yield.  Need some more consumer staple % anyway.

I'd love to own KO. Will start buying if it drops under $42.

KO is a a nibbler stock for me.  I'll make a $100 a month on puts until I am forced into a hundred shares eventually .  Dividend finally grew up and actually a better dividend than some of my utilities.  My port needs some more boring stocks that act like a bond.  If I wait for an extremely good price on KO then something is wrong and I still won't own it.  PEP is just as good, probably better, if you need more consumer non-durables.  I am light on them until recently.
