Weekly Dividend Investing Roundup - March 7, 2008

Written by The Dividend Guy on March 7, 2008

Weekly Roundup

Financial stocks continue to tumble and the markets had a real rough day yesterday. With oil above $100 a barrel and natural gas prices starting to see some action, things are looking better for those of us in the oil and gas business, but there is just so much uncertainly out there that it is hard to remain positive. The lesson in these markets is to keep emotion out of our decisions, especially on recovery days when things start to look good again. Be cautious, stick to your game plan and in 10 years this period will be a distant memory. This weeks dividend investing roundup is a good reminder of the key principles to keep in mind.
