these are a few of my many low and medium priced stocks that imo are good to play for 6 months and longer...these are also great for the long haul bcs of the divedends that they pay ...... and in my uneducated opinion these are coming off their lows . so what you do is buy 100 shares of each and watch the dividends roll in ...but make sure to reinvest the dividends in the same stock for the long haulers.....safe and steady is better the radical up and down and bouncing around ... I will put these 6 into a portfolio with 100 shares a piece and see what happens...will report monthly The Rexxy Dividend maker Fund ....TRXDFX ;D TIN a paper/realestate/lumber/and an array of other things and pays 6% dividends finance.yahoo.com/q?s=tinSR this one a office supply /paper company with 8.5 % divedend.. finance.yahoo.com/q?s=sr SBGI this one is a television media company that pays 7% in dividends..... * and some recent inside buying from the top. finance.yahoo.com/q?s=sbgiSTON everybody gets here....they own cemeteries and funeral home...and with a 10% dividend finance.yahoo.com/q?s=stonBGF its a food company on its low end and pays about 9%in dividends . finance.yahoo.com/q?s=bgfSMH this one is an ETF that plays the semiconductors. and its low ..you can play the tech sector and make 6% in dividends finance.yahoo.com/q?s=smh

Hah .. you ain't kidding Rexy.
In July I pulled 85 pc into cash (including selling a flat and moving into a rented place). What's left in equities has lost me over 4% (despite dividends and profits on sales) since then ... a lot better than the market but still a PITA. Just got to hang tight till the brute turns, either mid-year or 2 years down the line if it goes really bad. And of course I'm (cruelly) hoping for a UK property crash.
Some really nasty shocks.

why.... the real estate crash hasn't happened in UK yet ??
.................................. The Rexxy Dividend maker Fund ....TRXDFX
well..since inception of the Rexxy fund ....its up $315.00 or 3.19%
and all 6 stocks are in the green
not bad for 10 days ...seems the market is breathing a bit
btw...if we did 3.19% every 10 days and including the Dividend and the compounding of these stocks .....we will be millionaires in no time with a $9800 investmet ... SERIOUSLY !!
;D

You bought Yahoo just before it jumped 50% !?!? Good for you,Rex. I've had some nice jumps last couple of days -- but nothing like that, and I haven't sold yet either. If I could take a decent profit on the last 6 months, I think I'd bail right out of the market as of now. Our banks are paying at 6.5%. I can live with that. Maybe get a few Euro bonds for the currency appreciation. With equities this volatile, you need a real fire and forget mentality. House prices are just beginning to turn in the UK ... we've had a huge bubble (like you guys, but unlike the rest of Europe). I made 400% on my flat in fifteen years, but many people reckon the UK market may finally drop by about 10% or more this year.

yep...paid 19.50 ...wish I had picked up more ...I just picked it up bcs of its low price ...I even liked it in the mid 20's a few weeks ago
I'm driving to work and radio man is talking about msft buying it ...couldnt wait to get my computer on and check ...computer on and then sold immediatley ...
lucky day for me ....I just wanted to hold for a couple of weeks just for a 10%-20% gain or 5% loss whichever came first
if I would of put the money in on options ...I would of had an heart attack ....
also picked up on Ebay at same time I bought yahoo ....its just to darn low of a price not too...
400% wow ...we did about 100%-150%
and 6.5% is good from banks ...I feel safe there with of course good money ..
now I'm watching a couple aluminum stocks ...for a 2-3 month play including a few airlines ...AMR and LUV
.......................
btw ....the Rexxy Fund is up 7.04% and all in the green ;D Inception date 01-18-08
thats in 15 days ....if you take the formula of time into factor ...this is great ...
