The investor conference was reassuring and I'm glad they did it. <br /><br />Hmm, it appears I managed to time this one pretty well. 100% luck though. I've had plenty of horrible timing too (my early purchases last month weren't so hot). It evens out over time.

I ...A very timely move considering today's pop. I was seriously thinking about buying more KMI earlier this week, but given that it's my second-largest holding, I held off. Now I wish I hadn't! But I've learned not to dwell on such things.<br /><br />I listened to the conference call this morning and I was impressed with how Rich Kinder addressed various concerns. His explanation of the different categories underlying the $222M difference in El Paso pipeline expenses was very informative. As far as I'm concerned, he satisfactorily addressed the issues raised by the Hedgeye analyst, and it seems as though the market agreed.<br /><br />While today's market surge gave my portfolio value a nice boost, it also pulled several stocks on my watch list further away from my price targets. Thus, I'm not sure when I'll be making my next purchase.Dividend Growth Machinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13304571550687216360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232481098066200105.post-83756353719300794362013-09-18T20:29:43.958-04:002013-09-18T20:29:43.958-04:00Well I know you're buying a house so I don'...Well I know you're buying a house so I don't blame you. I don't know if you plan to have kids or what not, but buying a house is a BIG deal and more important than purchasing a few shares of a publicly traded company. Your family is more important, plus the stock market is over valued anyways.<br /><br />One thing I do not like about the military is that I must constantly move. Buying a house is very impractical for me. It's not in the cards for my situation.<br /><br />I hope to join you as a Target shareholder in the next few months.Compounding Incomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207986983526689578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232481098066200105.post-73213608758455624552013-09-18T20:23:46.262-04:002013-09-18T20:23:46.262-04:00I had a chance to listen to the Kinder Morgan inve...I had a chance to listen to the Kinder Morgan investor conference today and was quite impressed. Rich went into great detail and in the process debunked hedgeye's arguments. It's really nice that management took the time to do a service like this for investors. Rich Kinder is one of my favorite CEOs.<br /><br />It appears the whole market popped today I think I will sit on the sidelines for a bit. The market as whole appears a bit over heated to me.<br /><br />Have a good one!Compounding Incomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207986983526689578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232481098066200105.post-86512923862290273612013-09-18T20:15:26.282-04:002013-09-18T20:15:26.282-04:00All reasonable investments, no doubt.

While I would have no problem buying additional shares of that business, I will wait for a better valuation. Morningstar rates it as 1 star on a lower fair value than mine, be careful! Anyways I always appreciate your thoughts.Compounding Incomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207986983526689578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232481098066200105.post-89161238278660890312013-09-18T20:06:02.204-04:002013-09-18T20:06:02.204-04:00Nice I just checked out your website and it looks ...Nice I just checked out your website and it looks great!

Unfortunately there's no free capital right now and oil/energy makes up a a very large portion of my portfolio so I need to try and diversify away from that. I like TGT as well and have a pretty sizeable position there. Loved their last dividend increase. I'm hoping to get a chance to pick up some BAX closer to the $70 level.
