Yes, the dividend and relative safety in a frothy market.

KMB hammered on potential buyout of KVUE. What a bargain. I’ll start legging into KMB on Tuesday. Too busy today at work and missed an entry.

You might look at NLR (nuclear) and D (Dominion, more traditional energy) as power plays.

Though I was late to the PLUG party, my calls have returned a five bagger since July. I sold 20% today to completely de-risk. Free riding 80 calls. Thanks, Najeh! Yours should be at least 10x.
