The name Doctor Stock just makes me lol.  I realize this point is unrelated to your point, but I love the name!  Kudos on the stock pick as well! :)

 

Haha... thanks.  I guess I'll have to update my "about" page and share how I came to that name...

Any suggestions on something that would be good to get into right now??

 

While I don't offer "advice" I'd highly encourage you to follow the 5 for 5 challenge... I'll be demonstrating how I trade 5 stocks for 5% guarantee in the next two months.  If you follow there, you'll have 5 ideas I guess.

 

I suppose the best thing is to drop by my site regularly Wink

I am sure many people will reference it once they know about it.

A big congrats? How much of your portfolio did you have in Health Spring?

 

I had 7 % in it at the time... I've sold 1/2 and may just remove myself to eliminate any risk going forward.

Congrats on the call.  Are you looking for further consolidation?  I've been playing the health care industry a lot lately, in both short-term positions and long-term investments.  CYH is another I've done *okay* with recently, as it's bouncing from the lows sparked by Europe/Medicare reform from Congressional Supercommittee.  I think as a whole, the health care industry is ripe for more acquisitions.  LBO should be having a field day with the combination of lowly valuations, predictable cash flow, and cheap credit.

Nice job Doctor Stock! I'd be interested in evaluating your investing strategy. Do you have any posts that describe it?

 

Thanks.  Yes, I do... I have two main approaches right now.  The first is the Weekend Investor Strategy (mid-term investing - 15 minutes per weekend).  The other is the Evening Investor Strategy (shorter-term investing - 5 mins per night).

 

I have several articles on the site... simply search those terms or things like "strategy" etc.  You'll get lots of ideas.  I'd love to hear what you're interest are... cheers!

Today, I was delighted to see one of those top 10 stocks (HealthSpring) being acquired at a 35% premium. If you're learning to invest or looking for reliable information, I'd encourage you to drop by.  While I'm not in the business of advising, I do provide all sorts of resources.  Furthermore, they're all free with only one exception!

 

So enjoy... and thanks for being apart of this wonderful network.  I've enjoyed learning from you and having my horizons expanded.
