Final Segment #1:
'Am I Diversified?...'
Wednesday, April 29, 2009
 

In this segment, Jim takes 2-4 callers and asks them to submit five stocks that make up their largest positions in their portfolio.  He then comments on whether or not they are properly diversified.

Jim:     When I tell you to own a stock, okay, it does not mean that you should take all of your money and buy that one stock… even if you are almost positive that it will go up… nor one sector… I see a lot of people have all natural gas stocks, remember that ended last week… oh no, I will not have any of that… because diversification is the only free lunch… and you will not choke on it… unlike the cucumber that I choked on earlier that I now believe was given to me by an assassin… anyway, we are playing Am I Diversified?

Caller:     I want to know if I am diversified... Stocks are:
Coke, eBay, Exxon, J&J and Parker Hannifin?...

Jim:
     Tell Mr. Watts that we said hi, he is the terrific CEO of Parker Hannifin, and they do a great job, they guided lower and the stock went up, that is our kind of thinking… Parker Hannifin is, anything is possible, this is an old metal bender that has really reinvented itself, I regard it as a technology company, but lets just call it an industrial company… Exxon Mobil, raised its dividend today, how much do we like companies that raise their dividend, oil company… eBay, they have got new management seems to be understanding that they can bring up value by selling off Skype, I believe that PayPal is worth the whole price of the company… JNJ, we covered that, it has a nice yield, and is a nice pharma company… Coca-Cola, great yield, we like Pepsi more, why, because it also has Frito-Lay… but we have Coke, we have a beverage company, a drug company, an industrial company, a tech company, well really an internet tech company, and an oil… man that is just unbelievable… I say fantastic.


Verdict:  
YES, Diversified.

ActionAlertsPlus.com, my charitable trust, it has run so much, actually I own these three for my charitable trust, this thing has run so much that I am not going to recommend people buying it up here, but it is a diversified manufacturer… Conoco my favorite oil company… Freeport, copper and gold, what is not to like… I have got mineral, I got oil, I got machine, I got ag, I got utility… I got hallelujah… all three players are stand out… I am telling you that they could be all-stars… they are obviously playing for the Phillies.

ActionAlertsPlus.com, my charitable trust names here, we have Wal-Mart, the stock was en fuego today, I actually lightened up a little because I bought some at $46, that is full disclosure, I sent out an email before… Conoco Phillips, same deal, this stock is my absolute favorite oil stock other than perhaps BP, just because the bears and the journalists hate BP so I like it for that… so we have got a retailer, we have got an oil company… we have JNJ, this is a company that does not work right now right here, because the economy is coming back, but it has got a great yield and it is a great company… Intel, we have got technology… and GE (parent company of this network), is a diversified player… so we have a diversified manufacturer, we have a tech company, we have an oil company, we have a drug company, and we have a retailer… and I like all of them and I got to say, that man knows how to play.

Verdict:
