The Dark Man Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Take a look at MAGS. It's an Israeli security company that among other things builds security fences and walls. It's a $7.00 stock that is up almost a dollar since Trump was elected. This was a real nice little quick hitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I briefly glanced at it, but not sure it's rudimentary enough for me.

Frustrating, That's where we fail ourselves and fall prey to shitty brokers or the media. Folk look at an article like that and think they gotta swallow it whole, be an economist after two pages. Take what you can but more importantly take stock of a question or two or a key word. 5 minutes of reading and a bit of research. You'll know more than you would have imagined real quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should buy more. I'm just frustrated because my one stock I have any real money in is going down, while the Dow goes up. It's done well for me this year, but when you hear about these gains everyone is making it's disappointing. So I'm a chickenshit and sitting on money at 1% which even if you had $2 million in the bank would put you in poverty level living off the interest. preferred stocks are looking really cheap right now, with interest rates rising some of them have gotten clobbered unfairly, to the point where you get 8-10% dividends i like all of these, base price is $25/share if they buy them back so you're getting in cheap vno-l (21.77)aht-f (22.90)cio-a (22.44)rexr-a (22.35)omaa (20.96) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
