The 3rd part of the dow jones articles $$ XOM $WMT $VZ $UTX $T
To be honest, I just stopped caring about putting words along with these price ranges and submitting it to SA. It's just not worth it to me. I mean, I don't own them, what's the point, right? When there is no point, I don't put in much additional effort.

Sad part is that after doing this analysis I felt really generous. I didn’t take into account the systemic risk of peak oil, high inflation, or an event that is otherwise unpredictable. Maybe I was sad because I look at companies at 1/5th the price of these for earnings growing 5x as fast? I dunno. Glad I got to recalibrate my mental framework though.
Disclosure: I don’t own anything mentioned, except lots of products that these companies make. It’s impossible not to.
