Stocks on Buy List: QEP Resources

We like QEP Resources, Inc very much because it has performed well over the last 12 months and it’s in an industry that we love to invest in. We started accumulating this stock in July of 2010 at $34-36 per share and have not been disappointed with its performance. However, the stock has recently been downgraded by Goldman Sachs to Neutral with a price target of $49 even though Standard and Poor's has a Buy rating on the stock with a target price of $52 per share.

I still like the stock especially since our clients received an Average Total Return on Investment (ROI) of 29%, but I have sold most of the position from our client portfolios. I believe that there are better opportunities elsewhere in the oil and gas industry but we might still get back into the stock in the near future.
This stock is a solid performer, which makes it a good addition for investors that are looking for stable, solid growth.

Portfolio Update

By Rick Walter I have posted a new Biotechnology portfolio . It's total return as of November 25, 2009 is 3.4%. However, to download and use it you will have to subscribe to the portfolio, of course. On an important note, I consider each portfolio to be well diversified in its particular sector but I've recently decided to add stock futures and options positions to each portfolio which will increase each portfolio's return but lower the risks going forward.

Diversification and Risk

I am always trying to come up with new combinations of investments for the next exciting portfolio. Lately, I've been sort of stuck. The norm would be to build something like a QQQ portfolio , a Russell 1000 , or a Russell 2000 portfolio , maybe even a Mid-Cap or Small-Cap portfolio . Boring stuff if you think about it. I could get a little radical and try to build a pop culture type theme portfolio like the Sopranos portfolio , the Donald Trump portfolio - "your fired", or the Obama vs. Dick Cheney portfolio - a long/ short portfolio of course, with lots of defense stocks on the Cheney side of the portfolio. How about a Weapons of Mass Destruction portfolio - that would be a derivatives based portfolio with lots of CMOs'- sub-prime mortgages in the mix. Heh-heh-heh! We could really get creative and produce some wonderful stuff, but I don't know if they would make any money. Or maybe, I could build a portfolio such as a moderate Mid-Cap portfolio and just give it...
