Today in my Fidelity account I bought 167 shares of COP at approx $60 per share. That's about $10,031 total. Commission was $7.95. I might have bought more, but the price is at an all time high it looks like to me. I bought COP because it has a PE ratio of about 9.5 and a dividend yield of about 3.7%.
I also sold $150,000 of VFICX (Vanguard Intermediate term bond fund) that was in my Fidelity account because I am worried that interest rates will go up (and there will be inflation). I had approx $200,000 of VFICX and so I'll only have approx $50,000 after this trade. I might buy VFSUX (Vanguard short term bond fund) with the money.
I also bought 400 shares of altria (MO) at about $24.95 per share. That's about $10,000 total. Fidelity.
