I prefer the Will Rogers method. Ya buy low and sell high. If it don't go up, don't buy it.

Dear Micro,
As I see it, there are three ways to make money in the
stock market.

1.) Short the stock and hope the price goes down.
. . . (I see this as the riskiest method as it might
. . . go up instead.)

2.) Buy long and hope it goes up. No guarantee, but
. . . much safer than method one.

3.) Buy long and enjoy the dividends. This method
. . . incorporates method 2 giving one two ways in one
. . . to make money.

The 'Dividend Aristocrats' are companies with a long history of
increasing the dividends. Back when I owned some Heinz, (before
that turd buffet bought me out) HNZ was averaging a ten percent
dividend increase every year. (I thought of it as a ten percent
pay raise - for doing nothing. :-)

Yeah. The stock market can go down . . share prices
can drop across the boards . . but as long as the
dividend keeps rolling in I don't worry.

Zim.
