D4L:
I agree that CNI is a stock worth considering, I failed to nibble earlier as it’s mainly a north-south rail and is economically sensitive and I was nervous. I’m watching and waiting for $45 entry point. Long term it should do well. Is the PDF link correct, I can’t open it?

What really amazed me is the fact that the company has maintained the same yield, while increasing its dividends over the past decade. That’s truly what any dividend growth investor is looking for – rising dividend income along with capital gains.

It would be great to see a post about how to get started. I am a little lost with all the different online trading accounts out there and I know that 19.95 per trade is way too much, but beyond that, I don’t know much else.

It is interesting to see the Canadian Railway stock being reviewed. I have not thought of railway companies outside of the U.S. cuz of Buffet and his focus on U.S. railways. I certainly will look into this.

Brooke: It’s been great to have some of the ladies posting lately. Thanks for your kind words. I am working on an article on how to get started investing. The short of it is to ease in to determine your risk tolerance. Not knowing your particulars (and I am not qualified as a professional, even if I did),let me approach it this way, if I were starting today, I would begin with a broad index fund such as the S&P 500 (VFINX or SPY)then gradually ease into other investments as I fully understood what I was doing and the risks associated with each investment. This is true also for the S&P 500 fund. I look forward to chatting with you again.

Best Wishes,

D4L – this is amazing. You are really down in the weeds with all the info on this site – I had no idea. The Acrobat document blew me away. I guess now that I have a knowledgeable friend, I should probably get involved in investing. Any tips where to start?

By the way, you’ve been tagged for a meme over at my site!
