Weekends Were Made For Thinking

 "Know what you own, and know why you own it." 
-- Peter Lynch, Investor and Author.

 "It's not how much money you make, but how much money you keep, how hard it works for you, and how many generations you keep it for."
-- Robert Kiosaki, Investor, Businessman, Author.

 Weekends were made for research and reflection. It's a time for slowing down the brain and seeing things long term. The markets are frozen in time and there's not that constant pressure of a changing market. I like weekends, but I understand why all those market junkies hate weekends. There's no action.


 I like to review the current list of Dividend Aristocrats on the weekends and the place I like to start is FINVIZ. I generally start by plugging in all of the stocks on the Dividend Aristocrats list into the query box on FINVIZ so I can review the chart, all the descriptive, fundamental and technical filters, the recommendations, the news and the insider buys. It's a great place to start to get an overall update on each of the Dividend Aristocrats.

 Here's a URL for a screen of the current Dividend Aristocrats (http://tinyurl.com/nm8bke2). That's where I'll usually start and then from there I'll screen for these stocks using the stock screener in FINVIZ (http://tinyurl.com/mwdu5zc). Finally I'll go over to StockCharts.com and look at specific stock charts where I can add dozens of market indicators to determine if any of the stocks are within a buying or selling range.

 If there's any time left I'll move over to Seeking Alpha and Yahoo! Finance to read various in-depth news articles. Throw in a good cup of coffee and some good music and I end up with a very relaxing and financially beneficial weekend.

 Good Luck and Good Trading!

    I am an Individual Investor with specific interest in long term growth and then enhancing my returns with income from dividends and derivatives. I don't recommend stocks to anyone (it's a good way to lose friends) and no one reading this should misinterpret my blog as a recommendation for any type of investment. I am writing this solely for myself and my kids.
