What To Expect In 2010…
Last weekend I was sitting on my couch, flipping through a magazine. I noticed an advertisement for a doctor’s office… for some reason it really caught my eye. The top of the ad is a Norman Rockwell picture drawn for the cover of the Saturday Evening Post. It’s called the “Tattoo Artist”. I laughed out […]
Should You Still Hold Pfizer?
A little over a year ago, I started buying shares of Pfizer (PFE). It was a scary time in the markets. We’d just entered a major economic downturn. The credit crisis was in full swing. And the major market indices were falling fast. Despite the bearish conditions, I found a company I believed had long […]
