Tracking Investments

Up to this point, our team has bought 100 shares of Apple, McDonald's, Johnson & Johnson and AT&T. Each decision came from the conclusion of the entire group because the stocks seemed to be doing well although they are risky. We have not bought more than 100 shares for each or sold anything because we are tracking the success of each stock. For now, we will continue tracking the stocks before buying anything else because we do not want to loose all our money.

Blue Chips-Apple

I believe that Apple is a good investment for our group. I have decided to buy 100 shares of their stocks. As a growing company, they have very big promise for the future, because of the IPod and the Mac computer. The year to date price has went up 22.43 dollars and the price now stands a little over a hundred dollars. I think that with the new Ipod Shuffle and the other products to come from the company, I think that there is a good chance that this stock holds promise for great profit in the future. However, patience seems to be the best option, as daily the price fluctuates.

blue chips stocks (jonathan)


I will buy johnson & johnson company stocks because from the numbers on the cnn stock and money informations it shows that the companies stocks is and have been doing good for the past couple of years. Yesterday it close at a high price and todays it was trading at a high of 52.86. the reason why i decided to buy this stock is because jonhson and johnson is because not only their making products for hair that is very impotant amongs women and also they are making a lot of progress by investing and making baby products. my projection for this stock is that its going to increase because beacuse of the progress they are having rite now. this purchase can to our risk and goals as a team because we as a team have to be prepared for bid looses and also on the other hand we have to take risk and expect some sort of a big cash back in return. As it was stated in the latest news about dividends it says that JnJ is one of the biggest company that gives good dividends.

I am nott going to buy the Coca-Cola Company because it seems to be decreasing as years has passed. The Coca-Cola Company has a major trend that makes it seem to decrease in the course of the years. The yearly high for the Coca-Cola company is 44.77 and the Low is 44.24. The Coca-Cola Company has had major decreases in the course of a year. People would not be buying or investing in Coca-Cola companies because there are many otha better soda companies over them wit more stock. According to the news story I read about the Garbage Mogul, it says that Creative recycling like this has helped double TerraCycle's revenue every year since 2004. This encouraged me to not buy Coca-Cola Companies because of the decline. It tells me that I must be careful with what I buy especially with what my group buys because we want to but companies that are increasing and not decreasing and going to do better as days progress. Coca-Cola has a few competitors as well. The data is the determining factor for why I am not buying.

I will buy Mcdonalds because it seems to be successful, opening up today at a higher price than it closed yesterday according to the Cnn money information. Many people seem to be going to McDonalds more often nowaday for the fact that they are being affected by the economic crisis so they cannot really afford restaurants any longer. Also, McDonalds continues bribing their customers by updating their sales for instance making two sandwhiches $3. The more bribing, the more customers which means more money for the corporation then, I the buyer will make money as well. In addition, according to the latest headlines for McDonalds, at the street.com, it is one of the top-5 large-cap stocks for March 25. I think that this stock is going to do well because although there is the risk of McDonalds performing poorly, there is also the chance that it will continue succeeding. After all McDonalds is a big corporation and its numbers reveal that it is a smart choice for my group to buy. I think that if McDonalds goes down and we loose money, it will go up as fast due to its graphs and information online so we will be gaining it right back. (BETSAIDA REYES D-BAND)

Goals and Strategy

The risk tolerance will be moderate. We are going to be a "majority rules" group, and make decisions together. We are going to be working as a whole, rather than spitting anything up. Our goal is to gain a dividend pay,because we feel it will be the most beneficial. We wish to have the least amount of loss and raise the most amount of profit, and of course we plan to win. :)
