Why Coke Should Be Added To Your Long Term Portfolio

The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) is and has been a main stay in all major and common investment portfolios. Why? Simply because they are and will continue to be a money machine.

In other words, if you invest in stocks for the long term, Coke has to be, or should be a part of your long term investment portfolio.

Everyone in the world knows that Coca Cola has been around for years. Not only that, just about everyone in the world has drunk Coke at one time or another. Of course, not everyone likes Coke and not everyone drinks Coke, so why should everyone invest in Coke?

The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) is a major DIVERSIFIED beverage and branding company. The name says “Coke”, but the company has their distribution globalized in not only cola but dozens and dozens of brand name beverages in every major developed market in the world.

In other words, ever if you don’t drink Coke, you probably drink a Coca-Cola Company branded or owned drink on a somewhat regular basis without even knowing it.

OK, you don’t drink soda. How about coffee, orange juice? Other fruit juices? Tea? How about bottled water?

We are only scratching the surface here folks. KO lines their corporate pockets with brands all over the world.

Their stock should be called Coca-Cola Diversified Holdings.

As far as their stock is concerned, they continue to pay dividends that are usually as strong as or stronger than bank rates and the stock usually outperforms the S&P in a recession simply because people still drink what they want during hard times. It’s one of the simple pleasures in life.

Dan Kaplinger of the Motley Fool recently entitled “Is Coca-Cola the Perfect Stock?” In it he goes over several reasons why KO should be considered a part of your defensive investment portfolio.

So add a few shares of KO to your retirement portfolio or your kid’s college investment fund. Let it sit for years and years, and enjoy the probable modest return and safety.

Gold Market Prediction – Revised

About 9 months ago, we posted a gold prediction (right after gold surpassed $1200 an ounce) that the gold run was possibly nearing an end because of a potential lack of buyers. Now (with gold recently hitting an record $1801 an ounce), we see that we were off by a 50% run up in price.

Our original analysis had suggested that retail buying of gold was difficult for most investors and that central banks would be soon unloading gold for a profit. Instead, now governments of countries are getting on the gold buying band wagon. For example it was announced that earlier this month, South Korea had added to its gold stocks for the first time in 10 years. South Korea, has one of the strongest technology production industries in the world. They are fiscally conservative. They’ve jumped on board.

But how far can this gold train go?

Analysts have been predicting $3000 an ounce gold prices for years.

As economies around the world continue to struggle (witness the recent credit downgrade of the U.S.), the perception that gold is a safe haven will continue to persist.

In the meantime, there is and will be a continuing growth of speculation and arbitrage in the gold market.

As always we recommend extensive due diligence before committing any serious funds to the market. Any financial market investment carries financial risk.

Why is Dinewise Stock on the Move? (DWIS)

Dinewise is company that has been in business for a number of years now specializing in home delivery services of  gourmet prepared meals. They have been recognized in their industry as a popular consumer choice in delivering pre-prepared gourmet meals to consumers too busy to cook complete meals themselves, yet wanting something above fast food and something more convenient than reserving a table at a restaurant.

Over the last few years the company has been transforming itself from a primary door to door and word of mouth operation to centralizing it’s operations as an online marketer catering gourmet meals direct to the consumer.

The company’s stock DWIS had been trading publicly initially on the OTCBB for some time and then around March/April of 2009 changed it’s registration status and started trading on the pinksheets.

Management and marketing of the company seems to be on the fairly conservative side with no overly aggressive moves, however steady growth in terms of revenue has been difficult for them. They have a decent product and service with decent demand, however management seems to be subdued in the marketing of their company, which ultimately results in less exposure and less business.

However, they are operational and although they have failed so far to deliver profits, they have also not posted huge loses either. Thus, the company still remains in contention to become a major player in the pre-prepared meals industry.

Lack of exposure for the company means lack of huge moves in the stock price. However just within the last 2 weeks, we have seen a doubling of DWIS on little volume which can mean a number of things.

After DWIS went from OTCBB to the pinksheets, the stock took a huge dive from pre-pinksheet levels. It went from the recent prices of that time of .06 a share to as low as .002 and  because there was little news and trading in the stock, no one really knew what was going on.

Former consultants and promoters praised the company and had nothing bad or negative to say about them, however they ceased promoting and consulting with them, which added more to the mystery. One thing a market does not like is a mystery when prices are going down. However, when prices are going up without reason it leads to more speculation and more price increases in the stock, which could be the prelude to what we are seeing now.

Within the last several days Dinewise (DWIS) has moved from less than .03 to a close of .06 today on fairly low volume. We are wondering why the stock is moving now

Here are some possible reasons as to why Dinewise stock (DWIS) is on the move:

Possibility #1. There is a maverick investor who is accumulating shares splitting the spread and taking as much as 50,000 shares or more a day for the last week. He plans to accumulate 250,000 to 500,000 shares or more and hold them.

Possibility #2. The company itself is buying shares in order to tighten the market. According to published information there are less than 33 million shares outstanding and 22 million floated with less than 175 shareholders on record. One of the shareholders is a group of investors holding over 12 million shares, which leaves fewer shares floating and available for trading.

Possibility #3.  A market maker is accumulating shares so that he can rise the stocks and short it with the shares held and bank a huge profit.

These are three possible reasons why Dinewise stock is on the move.

Prior to this move the stock was at a 52 week low of .002 (yes .002) for several months. In October of 2010 the stock moved up to .01 and within several weeks traded up to .05, then settled back down to the .02 to .03 range until it posted a new 52 week high today at .06.

There could also be a possibility that a market maker has accumulated a huge number of shares all the way down to .002 and is now positioning itself to unload them as close to .10 or more as soon as possible in the near future. This would be a huge profit for the market maker indeed.

It will be interesting to see what information if any begins to come out in the days and weeks ahead on DWIS. There could be even greater and more interesting news on the company, but since there is virtually no recent activity on any major stock trading boards we will have to wait and see what the possible reasons are for the Dinewise DWIS stock move.

Gold Market Prediction

With the price of spot gold recently at all time highs, there are some forecasters that are calling for a top in the gold market and a major reversal in 2011. Gold prices have nearly doubled in 2 years.

Are we looking at the beginning of the top in the gold market?

Is the gold market bubble about to pop?

There seems to be a bit of euphoria in and around the gold market lately. Since the $1200 price was recently surpassed at least one “analyst” predicts a $3000 per ounce price within the next few years calling the the “macro economic environment” great for gold.

There seems to be one major oversight with this analysis.

As the “big” buyers a.k.a. the central banks have been “net buyers” of gold running up the price quickly, the lure of quick profits unloading the gold will be too tempting.

Since the big buyers have been buying gold they are basically the only ones that can afford it at these prices. Even jewelery demand for gold has slowed and come down even in the midst of these historic prices.

The bottom line is that a $3000 per ounce market for gold makes buying gold for most buyers impossible to afford and without buyers there is no support for higher prices.

In the near future we see central banks that have been storing gold to begin unloading reserves to lock in profit and converting to cash.

In any case, whether this prediction has any merit remains to be seen and played out in the markets, but eventually the lack of buyers who can afford to buy gold at higher prices will cause the price of gold to fall quickly and stabilize.

As always we recommend extensive due diligence before committing any serious funds to the market.

Investing In Penny Stocks

Penny stock investing and trading has the potential to be extremely profitable. Quick gains of 100% plus or more in one day are more frequent with penny stocks traded on the OTC, OTCBB and pink sheets than on the larger exchanges. However, trading in penny stocks can also be very risky.

One of the drawbacks in trading in penny stocks is that there is usually a lack of consensus and flow of information that is reliable when researching possible stocks to trade or invest in. Many penny traders rely heavily on stock forums and bulletin boards then trade exclusively on rumors and news. Since many penny stocks don’t have solid financials, many of them move on simply hearsay or market maker manipulation.

Other rely on technicals and chart reading to ascertain potential price movement. There are very few traders that have the ability to utilize both methods effectively.

In any case, properly researching penny stocks takes a considerable amount of time to be able to filter and make trading decisions consistently enough to make substantial and consistent profitable returns. Some “weekend traders” enjoy the process of combing through hundreds of trading possibilities and reading just as many stock forum messages in hopes of finding the next big home run trade.

A more effective way of trading is to follow and mirror someone that has proven themselves to be consistently profitable time and time again. There are only a handful of these types of traders and many do not reveal their trades.

One such trader we have found to be consistently profitable over months and years of trading penny stocks is James Connelly who has been called a penny stock prophet. He has developed a proprietary system of selecting penny stocks poised to move quickly which allows anyone that follows his moves to gain an average of 25% to 200% within days. His system has shown the ability to compound a $1000 starting nest egg to over $500,000 on less than 40 trades.

Unlike many other stock advisory services that charge thousands per year, or that charge an expensive monthly fee. His penny stock newsletter is currently accepting lifetime memberships for one very very low rate. One simple profitable trade from his recommendation can return the cost of the lifetime membership ten times over. The current price is about $100 for a lifetime membership to his proven penny stock newsletter which gives you his complete analysis of each pick so you understand why he thinks each stock is poised to move.

You can read more about his advisory service and track record and if you like what you see you can subscribe to his service by going directly to the Penny Stock Prophet newsletter.

Binary Options Simplified

What is a binary option and how do you make money from it?

Simply put, a binary option is a very short term option that pays you for correctly guessing if the market will be higher or lower within a week or less.

Binary options also called “One Touch Options” can be either for a week or even for an hour or even less.

For example lets say that the market is trading at 2215.00 and there is one hour left before the market closes.

If you think the market will close higher you would select a “call” option and if you thought the market will close lower you select a “put” option. That’s it.

If you selected the market to close higher and one hour later the market closes at 2215.75 then you have a winning trade.

Winning trades for binary options with one hour left to trader typically pay out 70% on average which means a $100 investment risk would yield you $170 total. $1000 at risk would have yielded you $1700. Not bad for an hour’s trading.

One Touch options are for a one week expiration period and pay you if the underlying asset traded hits your strike price before the week ends. One touch options typically pay a 350% to 400% return on investment. $100 at risk would yield you $400 if your price was hit during the week.

Underlying assets that are currently available to trade with Binary Options and One Touch Options include all the major stock market indexes, all the major forex currencies, major U.S. and European stocks in addition to gold, silver, copper and oil.

Opening an account is simple and quick and you can get started trading Binary Options or One Touch Options as soon as your account is funded.

AnyOption is the most popular Binary and One Touch Options broker online. In addition to providing standardized binary and one touch options expiration contracts, they allow you to lock in your profits before they expire and also roll forward your expiration time. These are powerful features that offer unmatched flexibility in trading binary and one touch options. They also give SMS alerts of your trades.

Binary options and one touch options offer guaranteed measurable returns for traders than can accurately predict short term moves and give traders greater flexibility and more options in managing their trading decisions.
