Recent Purchase - Johnson & Johnson (JNJ)
It's not often I have money to make purchases two weeks in a row but it happened again. After my recent purchase of Flowers Foods I had my eye on a few other names including Consolidated Edison (ED), and Compass Minerals (CMP) but I ultimately choose Johnson & Johnson.
I am partial to Utilities, for the safety they offer and I plan on adding to my utility holdings but I think ED is a bit too pricey here. CMP on the other hand is quite cheap but it could go lower with above normal winter temperatures persisting. However I thought JNJ was at a pretty fair price here so I pulled the trigger.
I purchased another 12 shares @ $97.50 - $1170JNJ Stock Chart
