My Stock of the Day: BAC


Writing for Street Authority, Poonkulai Thangavelu describes Bank of America (BAC) as possibly America’s most hated stock—the kind Warren Buffett so often buys. Warren has put $5,000,000,000 into BAC’s preferred shares, which yield a steady 6%. See:

My 5-year Yahoo chart for BAC shows a cliff fall in 2008-2009 and an up trend in place since the closing days of 2012:

My 3-month chart shows a healthy recovery in July from the spring pullback in stocks, but a down draft in recent days suggests now is a good time to watch BAC’s price progress for a better moment to buy shares. If and when you do, consider preferred shares as well as common.

Never forget: All investments and savings are gambles on the unknowable future and thus subject to loss as well as gain.
This website presents lots more research that I share with friends, family, and other do-it-yourself portfolio managers:
