We are not in and out traders, or market timers. We look for low P/E stocks, and hold them for a year or years. We also like to see some earnings stability or growth. With the current macro-economic uncertainties, we also look to collect some dividends while we wait. We try to buy right after a good earnings report, and hold until the P/E increases due to price increases (Yea!) or declining earnings (Boo!). See our references.
