My stock Watching List and Stock purchases

This week I purchased shares of

PFE@$29.10, CNP@$23.59 and Ford@$15.57.

Here is my watch list for upcoming week*.

* If I move stock to this list, it means there was a price drop or current price is somewhere in the middle.
I do not buy stocks at their highest prices. I might miss some good stocks but I prefer to sit and wait.
If I have a stock on my list, it means I like something about this stock. If I buy one of these stocks, it does not mean I plan to keep them forever. I might sell them if their price would go up a lot and I feel it's time to sell.

I love Sales on my regular shopping sprays and I use this strategy for my stock shopping... :)

WFMWhole Food Market$37.911.20%
VZVerizon$49.074.40%
DRIDarden Restaurant group$48.494.40%


I added Verizon and Darden Restaurant group to watch.



I need to add more communication stocks to my list and Verizon looks like a good match. I believe Verizon and AT&T are two main wireless companies. Even if I am a customer of AT&T I believe Verizon has a higher quality of their wireless service. When I used to live in a house with a bad reception my AT&T phone would not have service in some part of my house but my friends with Verizon never had any problems.

Read Motley Fool article or Wallstcheatsheet.com for latest reviews.

Darden Restaurant group just got rid of Red Lobster but from the list of other restaurants they own, I know very well Olive Garden and Longhorn Steakhouse. Not sure if I want to buy their stocks right now but I want to watch it for now.

Whole Food Market - not a dividend stock but as I wrote last week here I might still buy some shares.
I believe this company has a potential because younger generation are more concerned about healthy eating and willing to spend money at places like this one.


Please share your thoughts and watch lists.

Thanks for stopping by! :)
