Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

VZ and MO are supposed to be a couple of the stocks with a better dividend payout than T is. I take it that you're in VZ for the growth and not the dividend.

Any thoughts about DHR?

I have had VZ for a few years but thinking about selling more since I dropped them as a provider myself. They are just too expensive compared to the competition. I do not know how they can have a good future

Seems like a lot of California businesses are dropping like flies these days. Silicon valley easy money must be drying up.

Hard to think of investing in volatile stocks or EFTs for the dividend when MMs are paying near 5%. For me interest rates don't matter much since I don't have any plans to borrow money. Whether or not the rate increase is offset by increasing the cost of doing business for any goods or services I might purchase is anybody's guess.

I have my wife's 401k 80% out of stocks. Mine is about 40% out.

Right now the SPAXX can replace what I'm required to withdraw via RMD so I'm not spinning my wheels as much.

Use this weakness to add to Energy particularly Exxon and Chevron or VDE and XLE. Expect 4th Quarter Rebound .
Yes have 20% in MM at 4.7 %

JP Morgan Chase. Buying up banks, and pissing off millenials. Got to love them!

Chase Bank Sorry for Saying Millennials Are Poor Because They’re Weak

Well, that certainly backfired.

I find incredible irony in you sharing a Vanity Fair article that cites Elizabeth Warren. LOL.

To be fair to JPM, they didn't need any money in 2008, and paid off the "bailout" money with a good return for taxpayers. Back to the present bank problems...

How long does it take for today's 0.25% rate hike to show up as added interest paid to your money market account?

Not near fast enough to pay the rising juice on maxed out cards.

If you have a credit card balance you don’t have to worry about the rate on the money market.

Market already priced it in, but should bleed in slowly as 30day paper turns to 90day with a higher rate. The concern with Money markets now is whether or not they break the buck on a US default.
