Exactly James!

That's why I keep pounding the table - just buy good stuff - stuff you know and understand - the dividend really helps... and just keep life simple. No need to get all confused and caught up in what the talking heads are hyping this week on TV... 'cause "next week" for a time horizon isn't really important...

My old partner had a saying he used all the time... Figures lie - and liars figure.

All these numbers are "interesting" perhaps - but they don't tell you what you REALLY need to know to buy a stock, i.e., IS THIS SOMETHING YOU WANT TO OWN AND WHY.
