Also I noticed that last year my B shares were paying dividends with A shares then they started paying with B shares in December. I am gonna stop this reply now as it is beginning to resemble a word problem. :-)<br /><br />MDPMy Dividend Pipelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00105884431032493602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6878884597386050425.post-83175657582565911032015-03-16T08:54:38.440-05:002015-03-16T08:54:38.440-05:00AFFJ,

With that said, a lot of price swings in both directions can occur and when they do, it certainly can be exciting to watch.

Under $60 seems like a great long-term price. The big question is how much lower will energy fall?

I have been adding oil and commodity stocks in the past 3 months (COP, BP, BBL). But these stocks continue to go down. BBL has come back to low 40s after touching 50 briefly a month ago. COP is down to low 60s. CVX is around $100. So these stocks are definitely going to test our nerves I guess.
