Yesterday, when the stock market was coming unglued and selling reached a momentary zenith, our subscribers saw us place a short term investment in Cisco Systems Inc. (Ticker: CSCO).  Cisco was down over -21% from its week before highs and ready for a bounce.  Today our brief investment into Cisco has been profitable.

Although our focus here is primarily to find longer term investments that are real multipliers, we also take opportunities as they come and take action on them.  Thanks to the internet and email, our subscribers see our steady moves in near real-time.  If they are inclined, they can take action on their own in their own accounts located wherever they have their funds, or simply watch and learn.

The market “looks ahead” and often behaves counter-intuitively.  This can be quite frustrating for those who are trying to be successful with their stock investments – whether mutual funds, ETF’s, or individual stocks.  This is why we created the Stock Market Companion.  We are a guide for those who want a useful and pro-active link to the markets.

Last week, when the market was showing strength but clouds were forming on the horizon, we sold our holdings for good profit.   Today we are profitable in our Cisco investment, but cautious.  We have reminded our subscribers this morning not to confuse this brief opportunity for a nice profit with Cisco, with our often longer term objectives.

Grow your money – on your own – inside your retirement accounts (IRA, Roth IRA… ) or in your traditional brokerage account… Follow how we apply our successful “Story-Stock Investing” process to grow our own money.  You can decide on your own whether to do the same or simply watch and learn.
