H&R Block rationale for buying XOM & COP, Wed., May 3, 2006, 12:52 PM
Given that I was blogging from 11pm through 2am, you'd think I might want to relax this afternoon. But the mail is something to behold, and the material keeps flowing in.
In this report from H&R Block Financial Advisors, courtesy of my friend Manish Mukhi of HRB in Ft Lauderdale, there is a case for buying XOM and COP.
XOM is on my Cara 100 list, but I chose CVX over COP. But I do like COP and when I expand the list to a Cara 200 in my next life, it will be there.
GICS 10 Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM) (XOM) Financials (Value Line: XOM)
GICS 10 ChevronTexaco Corp (CVX) (CVX) Financials
Here is the H&R Block report. Download file
p.s., you'll recall that Manish was the kind soul who fixed my laptop while I was passing through Ft. Lauderdale on Super Bowl Sunday. Sharp guy.

It is funny that H&R (just like the 'Lynch') feels the need to go on about all this. IT comes from a total lack of PR smarts and I have no clue why we even give it press....
They are about as good as the guys (not relevant) and at least they dont make any claims to being a 'pro' company.
