My weekly Stock list (12/14)

It looks like my portfolio is shrinking, but as long as I don't sell anything I have hope for future recovery of stocks.

At least one of my "mistake" investments finally moved to a green zone for me.

BBW - Build a Bear Workshop. I bought this stock back in 2008 for $16.00 and then at some point it fell down to $5.00 but I still kept it and finally now it's back to $20s. I hope their after Christmas sales report will be really good. Well, I learned my lesson"why you should not invest into non dividend stocks".  Imagine, if this stock would pay even 1% dividends through all these years and I reinvested it while stock was selling at $5.00 or $7.00?

Last two weeks were kind of identical for me, so I didn't post last week.

I bought more shares of BBL though, apparently not at their best price. 

Here is my list for upcoming week.

My favorite is WIN. I used to own shares but sold them sometimes ago and I miss my nice dividend income from them. :)

My Weekly Stock list (9/13)

This week offshore drilling companies are struggling even more after sanctions for my Motherland Russia.  My hope is that oil industry will clean out all this mess very soon because Gazprom, Rosneft, Lukoil and all other Russian companies are huge customers not just for offshore drilling companies but for many oil and gas companies all around the world. I don't like wars and politics but as an investor, I have to watch it closely, even it doesn't make any sense to me. When I grew up in Russia, it was a big country with many republics, then republics became independent countries. It looks to me as it would be the same as if each of USA states would become an independent country and then there would be a war between two states? It is very sad. But I am a girl and I don't understand wars at all.

But back to stock market.

This week I sold my remaining shares of WIN and bought shares of SDRL, just a little bit.

Below is my list for upcoming week. This week I added AFL (Aflac), thanks to Divhut for pointing that Aflac is trading close to their lowest. 

Also I put back ARCP and two other REIT companies SNH and SIR, which acquired part of ARCP properties last week. Here is an article about these transactions, if you didn't hear about this.

SNHSenior Housing Properties Trust$21.426.90%$20.70$25.35$22.30not sure if I want to buy it, but want to watch

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... :)
