Why those two? Because they have growth potential or because they are European in their operations. I'm staying cash rich for the next 6 months. I have an uneasy feeling about the economy for some reason.

So, you (MPC )bought shares in Unilever because they own Lipton, which gave me a weekend-getaway prize in their contest?.... :hmmm ...ooookaaay...

(...should I give you a link to my Amazon Wishlist, too?)

We now sorry we did it, we don;t have a good feeling about it.
Tomorrow we shall put in an GTC order to sell them at a tiny profit.

If we don't sell them we shall just keep them and collect the dividends.

Given how you post about how you're poor and broke I doubt you have $700.

Our Finnish young man( aka str8 guy) friend just mentioned that he had bought shares of Philip Morris on the speculatia that they will be manufacturing cigarettes for pot-heads and it will be a huge business in that area.

It's nice how enthusiastic you are about my prize!

(...and I used to think you were a bit self-absorbed.)

We cannot identify with your prize because you are happily married and traveling with your husband whereas we are now divorced and miserable and the memory of happy times with a husband just makes us more miserable.

We have decided to keep the $1400 worth that we purchased.

It can only grow over the long term and besides it pays excellent dividends.
