Bonds Are a 'Safe' Investment: A Big Lie Gets Even Bigger
Walmart's New Health Food Push: Is It Too Hard to Swallow?Bill and Hillary Clinton are liquidating their stock portfolio, , according to the New York Times. Of their eight biggest holdings -- you might consider bidding for two: Time Warner, Inc. (NYSE: TWX) and The Home Depot Inc. (NYSE: HD).
The reason for their decision to sell the stocks is to avoid a conflict of interest. This spring, a government directive also ordered her, as a presidential candidate, to dissolve her blind trust and disclose all of her assets to the public. The move will cost the couple "substantial amounts" in capital gains taxes and force them to forgo the potentially higher returns from these stocks.
But do these stocks really have that much potential? I don't know since I can't predict the future. Of the eight stocks of which the Clintons own between $250,001 and $500,000, I think they should be happy to sell one, I am on the fence about five and you should consider buying shares of two. Which are which?
