So while we all sit around bored waiting for the market to present some more interesting opportunities, I thought I’d sharpen my pencil and come up with a short list of stocks that I’ll strongly consider adding on the next dip or pullback, whenever that arrives. Would love others to share their best ideas as well.
AT&T (T). I’m a little annoyed at myself for not snapping up some shares on its recent dip to $32 back in Feb and March. I’ll try not to make that mistake again.
Aflac (AFL). The great stock that I love to hate. The yield is a bit weak for my liking, but they’ll be more generous someday, right?
Deere (DE). Just love the low P/E, low payout ratio combination, not to mention the earnings and dividend growth.
Target (TGT). I’ve expressed my concern about bricks and mortar retail elsewhere, but my exposure is still pretty light, so if the shares drop more, I may have to double down.
Altria (MO). I’m so overweight tobacco that I may never really buy another share with new money again, but MO just sits there on top of my ranked list, year after year, even as the price goes up.
Exxon (XOM). I don’t own any XOM yet, but would like a nice entry price to add some shares. I’m thinking that oil / energy names could comfortably make up 15 or so percent of the ultimate portfolio. Maybe even a bit more. But getting in at good prices matters more here, I think.
