February Stock and Fund Picks
Week 1 (Feb. 1 – 9): I am always amused when I hear a stock described as “poised for explosive growth.” It’s a catchy line but the same holds for any stock in the market.

August Weekly Stock Pick Recommendations
Week 1 (July 31 – Aug 11): For growth, I suggest looking at INTT, NVMI, KLIC, TFECY, LYV, and GILD. For dividend growth and income, consider MPLX, and NTES. ETF’s that pay around 8% quarterly and provide strong growth are IHD, and IAE. An undervalued CEF that pays monthly is the Boudler Growth and Income… Continue reading August Weekly Stock Pick Recommendations
