Sears Holdings (SHLD) – $120 (Don’t buy unless around $60)
I bought this company for one reason, Eddie Lampert. The person who resurrected Kmart but has unable to do so with Sears.
Toll Brothers (TOL) – $27 (Don’t buy unless under $17)
Leader in building luxury homes. Book value around $17. Won’t move much until the U.S ecomony recovers.
ConocoPhilips (COP) – $45 (Bullish)
Warren Buffett bought above $60. When oil and natural gas recovers, this stock will fly. 4% dividend while I’m waiting.

Great balance sheet but don’t recommend buying it until economy recovers.
American Express (AXP) – $40 (Bullish)

Valero (VLO) – $23 (Bullish)
Book value is around $30. Let’s see how this plays out.
General Electric (GE) – $20 (Neutral)

It holds a 80% net profits interests in certain natural gas producing working interest properties of XTO Energy Inc. Dividend is 5.5%+ and is debt free.

Oil is about 16 times the price of natural gas, compared to a historical average of about 8.4 times natural gas over the past decade!
Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) – $57 (Bullish)
Excellent balance sheet and track record. Buffett bought this stock. Good long term play on the babyboomer generation.
Walmart (WMT) – $49 (Bullish)
Buffett owns a huge chunk. When the economy is down, shoppers look for deals and a one stop shop. That’s Walmart. It’s a no brainer. Exceptionally well run and being such a huge dominant player, it’s still 44% insider owned.
Philip Morris International (PM) -$35 (Bullish)
