Not one of those 3 companies cut their dividends so who cares what Mr. Market says that they are worth at this moment. Also if the stock goes down a lot without a change in their fundamentals, you now have a great buying opportunity.
Agreed. You got very solid companies there and at reasonable cost bases. Don't be nervous when you see the red in the G/L column -- especially for these companies. I like to use that to see if I want to add more. If the loss gets greater than 10%, perhaps you'd want to add another small chunk.
Great start.
