dividend stocks

[MrLucky]

How most REIT dividends are taxed In the vast majority of cases. REIT distributions are mostly made up of ordinary income and are therefore taxable at the investor's marginal tax rate, or tax bracket.

Not a bad thing, just making a note of it.

Looking around, but haven't found anything that really tickles my pickle yet. Trying to figure out if I want to get into some energy/oil or other commodity investments. That sector has taken a bit of a dive, but I'm trying to figure out if it is just a dip/buying opportunity or if the trend has turned back downward.

jarrod - are you nibbling on any energy on this dip? i added to CVX and MPLX on this pullback

On Monday's dip I was looking pretty closely at adding to my COP position when it dipped down into the 53 range, but didn't pull the trigger. Was hoping for a bit more off a pullback. Guess I missed that bus...

I've also been eyeing up KMI, but waiting for a bigger pullback there too.

I'm holding. It could well get to $60, but probably not anytime soon. It may very well see $50 again before it gets to $60, but should eventually get there.

From last week regarding KO. Upon further review (and the earnings report), I would like to reverse my claim and say that I may well get to $60 before it sees $50 again.
