Sharebuilder DRIP Purchases


Market has been choppy.  It was up most of the day before losing steam towards the end and closed down a point to finish at 12,503.  Most of the Sharebuilder orders went through at the beginning of the day when the market was up.  That is my biggest negative on Sharebuilder.  On days like this, it costs me a percent. If I could control the orders and the date of purchase, I would probably be able to buy 1-2% cheaper.  Especially in a volatile market.  Anyways, added the following today:
  • $200 of CVX at $100.30. Yield 3.59%. 5 year average yield is 3.1%. Avg PE 9.8. Current PE=7.3.
  • $350 of BBL at $55.59. Yield 3.96%. **Lowest buy price of my DCA purchases**  
  • $200 of AFL at $40.74. Yield 3.24%. Avg PE 14.5.  Current PE= 8
  • $200 of EMR at $47.53. Yield 3.37%. 5 year average yield 2.8%. Avg PE 17.7. Current PE=15.
  • $250 of RDS.B at $66.03. Yield 5.21%. 
  • $250 of MCD at $91.34. Yield 3.07%. 

Total purchase of $1450 and added $54.92 to my annual dividend income

Facebook IPO= D.O.A.


Facebook's much anticipated over-hyped and overvalued IPO did not go as planned. Opened at $38. Closed at $38.23.  Currently valuation= 88 P/E. LOL

The market sell-off continued with the Dow falling 73 to close at 12,369.

Rough week!  Market was five days in the red for a total loss of 4.3%.

Is the market oversold?

Correction Underway



The market was down again today with a 156 point loss to close at 12,442.  It has dropped 11 out of last 12 days.

Yields are getting juicy and bargains are starting to appear.

Among the beaten down that I have my eye on: EMR $46.19 (3.46%), AFL $39.82 (3.31%), BP $37.50 (5%), RDS.B $64.75 (5.21%)

Mining stocks have been hit very hard.  BBL has been down over 10% over the past week and currently sits at $54.09 (4.07%).  FCX down has also been punished and closed at $32.17 (3.89%).

Facebook IPO is tomorrow.  I will be passing.
