These are a few ideas for the upcoming week. They're in no particular order but they are the companies I'll be investing in as funds become available in my accounts. They're each showing a nice estimated one year return on investment, increasing earnings, and pay at least a minimal dividend. I believe that each of these has a greater potential return than analysts currently expect. As with all investments, I start with small positions and then add to that position over time through dividend reinvestment, the sale of stock options and direct purchases of the stock. |
