Recent Buys - Apr 29 2016

Made a few small purchases on the dip on Friday

Apple Inc. (AAPL)
5 shares of AAPL at a price of $93.01 = $465.05

I'm almost at a full position and may add a few more if the share goes <$92

Gilead Sciences (GILD)
2 shares of GILD at $88.25 = $176.50

GILD had disappointing results this quarter. Hopefully they acquire a up and coming promising company soon. The stock may go down some more

4 shares of ABT at $39.25 = $157.00

Waddell & Reed Financial Inc (WDR)
8 shares of WDR at an average of $20.24 = $161.92

Initiated a small position in a risky stock.

Apple Inc. (AAPL)

 10 shares of AAPL at a price of $95.90 + $3.95 comm. = $962.95

I added to AAPL on the dip and Icahn's exit (glad it dropped due to this - not a fan of this guy). I'm close to a full position on AAPL and may add some more if it drops below $92. Hope it stays a dividend growth stock for a few more years. Excited for iPhone 7 and possibly a better Apple Watch (PS: not an Apple Fanboy)
