And who makes those yoga pants all the girls at the gym wear now?

yoga pants would be LULU and UA, doesn't pay a dividend though. the charts do show growth.

Along with BPT, I have SDRL.

Offshore Oil. It has been killing it.. 1 year 10%, 5 year 37%.

So, I have Kinder Morgan for Distribution, BPT for Royalty trusts, and SDRL for offshore Oil.

I have more, but they pay well, but are not charting well right now, so I won't mention those...YET...

I hate to recommend anything...Right when you guys buy it, it will go down..

Greg, Todd smacked me around and I have been exercising again..

Also working on the crap that I eat..I swear that it is going to get me back on track, literally back on the track.

Oh and the nice pop in the market today doesn't hurt..

Off to exercise the first time today before it gets hot..Back in a bit..

Funny how you mentioned BPT...I have had it for years..I had PBT too, but got out at the top. BPT is a hold..

My "Greg Weld Tidbit" for the day....

I'm sitting here watching the market jump -- and what comes to my mind is all the questions about "should I wait - or buy today - or...."

To which I always reply -- just get in... because long term it doesn't matter.

Today and days like this - always confirm why I say that. If you waited - you missed todays move. True you may have a day next week or next month which may allow you to get in but if you bought yesterday = you wake up this morning to a nice gain.

I buy shares in the 1000's --- most folks buy in the 10's or 100's.... A 50 cent a share move is a nice number when you've just bought 5000 shares of something. I don't wait.... I don't buy on up days - I buy on down days. But once I've made up my mind to buy - the very next down day is the day I buy. I never know what's going to happen next week - next month - next year. If I sat on my hands "waiting" for something.... where would that get me? I'm in for 5 years -- not 5 minutes.

The bigger picture is that 5 and 10 year chart -- low on the left - higher on the right - the TOTAL RETURN - and the dividend. What difference would waiting make if all those things are telling me it's okay to INVEST in a company.

The little man knew you bought! I heard him yelling -- "Sieg is in - take 'er down! Make him think he's an idiot! Beat him down like a dog... and when he sells -- take it higher!"
