My great investment adventures in the stock market continues. I am investing anywhere from $300 to $700 a month. I consider this my retirement fund.
I really like the Disney stock (DIS). It has been good to me. My 14 shares have gained $444 since I starting purchasing them a year ago. I bought my first 4 shares at $68, and an additional ten when DIS was around $75 a share. It is currently about $110 and I think it will hover there a while.
I also was surprised how well my Rite Aide stock has done. I bought it thinking it a good risk, and it has risen and made me a few dollars. It is still cheap to get in at under $9 a share. It doesn't pay dividends, but it has potential.
I also just purchased INN and have been happy with it. It is a dividend paying stock and my 40 shares have made me $5 in just 2 days.
I am really disappointed in my Real Goods (RGSE) stocks. They reverse split, and that is never a good sign. This was a company I really believed in, but then the original company bought itself back out of the bigger company. This was the first stock I bought. I used to own a 100 shares, but thanks to the reverse split I now own 5. For me to make my money back, those 5 shares would need to be worth about $65 each. I just don't see that happening, so I am going to sell what I have at a loss and get out. I figure it will be a good tax deduction. Thankfully my Disney stock has made more than RGSE has lost me.
Canon Inc. has also be a decent stock to own.
My other investments are just hovering and haven't really cost or gained me anything (though some pay a dividend).
Since I'm not a day trader, but investing long haul for retirement, I have time to see if my so-so's go up.
Happy Investing!
