In last two weeks I sold my shares of WU - Western Union - to collect earnings and reinvest (IRA account) DRI - Darden Restaurant -to collect earnings and reinvest (IRA account) I could wait a little longer on DRI but it's story of my life... When I sell, stocks go up, when I buy they go down... :) RIG - Transocean - Regular Brokerage taxable account - to claim losses to offset earnings. I plan to buy back in a month, just to keep this position. Stocks I bought 11/23/2016 12 shares of DEO  - Diageo at $100.48 in my IRA Account 100 shares of NEA at $13.33 - Nuveen Tax Free Municipal Fund - in my Regular Brokerage account  I saw this fund on  My dividend Pipeline   and was watching this fund. At this moment I am trying to low my passive income for one more year in order to be qualified for FAFSA and so this purchase was part of this plan. I did some transactions in my LOyal3 account as well but I will make a different post. Thanks for reading and please share your ...

In October I only made purchases in my Loyal3 account.
