What I Am Buying Today.

[Kerim]

A little bit of BEN, AFL, O, and FB this morning.

Might grab a few more VIAC before the day is out.

Had a few dividend bucks accumulated in the HSA so I started a position in NIE based on their distribution raise and special div.  I have AIO and ACV in a different account and so far they have done alright.  We will see how this fund does for us.

[suncoaster]

Added a bit to MO.  Still not a full position, but getting there.

[kblake]

Bought BEN, CVX, T, NUE, PM, WFC, WM and O

Nice buys.

I think T may be on its way to $28 now. The shorts are done and have moved on.

I have never been a big fan of the stock but I'm starting be semi warm on it lol. Believe it or not I went in for 500 shares this morning. Had to park some money somewhere and figured with the dividend on 1/7 why not    HBO Max is hot right now and my kids love it. Plus they are paying down the debt. 

ABBV just keeps hitting new highs 

Also added BX, WM, MRK, and ABNB

Sold some PUTS on BEN, TXRH, and SOFI

I think your right on T. They drove it as low as they could and now the shorts are exiting.
I added some Oil names today and a few Drug ETF's

On second thought, it may not be wise to invest any of it.  If things really go south for a while, I have enough funds to pay for 2022 needs now.

An emergency fund is never a terrible idea. If we get a real indexes wide dip you could re-evaluate then.

Emergency fund I have; but this allows me to have money for vacations, charitable donations, gifts, purchases etc. too.  So yeah, no more trades this year

[Mr1share]

Added MED, TGT, and AMGN

Weren't they cutting the divvy and selling hbo along with other content to discovery or something ?

[fenders53]

I think they pay full dividend two more times.
