Read MoreOver the last few years, I’ve used stocks in the Food Products industry to find useful value under often uncertain market conditions. Food Products companies, and others in the Consumer Staples sectors don’t generally get a lot of investor attention because they just aren’t very “sexy.” The dichotomy between fundamental strength and lack of investor […]
Read MoreBeing a value-oriented investor means that seeing stocks trading at or near historical lows tends to make a stock more interesting than when it is trading near historical highs.

Read MoreWhen everybody is buying, contrarian and value-focused investors tend to get more cautious. The opposite is also true – when everybody is running for the exits, we start finding more and more attractive opportunities at great prices. The past year and a half has been rough for just about every investing strategy, no matter whether […]
Read MoreOne of the primary elements I like to use to filter through the tens of thousands of stocks in the market is dividend payout.

Read MoreNo matter what your approach to the stock market may be, there are a myriad number of issues that come at you and demand attention. Some of those elements can be anticipated, if not predicted; for example, if a company is getting set for a new quarterly earnings report, it’s pretty normal to see a […]
Read MoreMore than two decades of experience as a student of the markets have taught me that while the market is generally resilient, there is one word that always seems to automatically put the market on edge: change.
