Here's another Investing 102 moment.... Home Depot (HD) is a boring old stock that pays a dividend... That's trading UP $3.00+ a share in premarket trading. Why? Because they knocked the earnings ball out of the park.
My point for Investing 102 --- you don't need to gamble on the latest greatest IPO's all the time in order to have some real nice positives in your accounts. Here we are with TWO names that we've used for examples in this thread on a regular basis -- Kinder Morgan (KMP) and now Home Depot (HD) that have nice jumps in value just THIS MONTH!!
I'm not saying that you should own stocks that we've discussed! Not at all! What I'm saying is that these are "boring" names... these are just examples of names you can buy and sleep well at night... and here they are hitting home runs for you.
