“BCO (brinks) and GE (general electric).”
Good for you.
What do you think of GE cutting the dividend?
A wise investor would bring these 2 issues up and look at the institutional holders of them and find the no load vendors and go with that rather than go with single issues. Bet ya may see one or two of Vangurads balanced and or stock funds holding both,but hey what do I know?
I canceled the ge trade due to recent poor ge stock performance (what the h*ck happened to ge? Lol) but I let bco ride, with the result that bco is currently down after an initial spike. I tried to buy fidelity ijt etf but could not figure out how to do it over the fidelity website despite several attempts. By that time, trading had opened and the chat queue was at 75, and I needed to attend a several hour long meeting that I just got out of now. Verdict: I am not very good at this. I should perhaps consider dumping the bco and investing in an etf or mutual, either vanguard if fidelity permits , or fidelity, using perseverance to get through the fidelity user interface which is ordinarily good. I should also be more prepared next time (if possible; I am still learning). Ugh ugh ugh.
