CMS looks like a good one to hold onto. I don't know if it got posted on the thread here or not. Picked up some when it was 18 1/2 or so a few months ago. When the interest rate cycles back down again sometime (they do still do things like that right???) in the future, these high yield utility stocks will look even better to those buying today. The yield % will decrease to match those future lower rates. Conversely as the yield decreases, the stock price goes up, with the dividend $ remaining the same all the time. Just look at the highs for the utilities. Corresponds to the lowest fed rates. Of course the analysts think you should hold now and buy then. Completely backwards as usual.

So did you give up on the EGRP thing? Sentiment in these type stocks was awful, and is downright terrible now. Too many shorts, too many clowns, too many margined. But times change. Biggest problem right now is the excess shares created by the shorts. Like for AMTD, you got people wanting to sell 20 Million shares that really don't exist. The market is flooded with AMTD shares. The buyers of all these shorted shares could very well be forced into margin calls by the crud market. Adding artificial shares to the downside pressure over and over again. The OLB's in general desperately need to generate some news that will get the shorts to stop leaning on the stocks. News of note, I find it stange that SCH is splitting 3 for 2 today???
