• John Ballard September Monthly Investment Report (AAPL, BIDU, GOOG, BOOM, MDT, ATW, DWSN, XOM, MSFT, PG, WSC, BRK.A, TTT)

    August 30, 2010: The S&P 500 index is down 4.94% for the month of August through August 26, 2010. I see a lot of good values among the top ten stocks in the S&P 500 by market cap. Exxon Mobil (XOM), Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), and Proctor & Gamble (PG) are the top four and trade at comparatively low forward earnings estimates. Apple is the only one on the list with significant growth prospects over the next ten years or so and it trades less than twenty times trailing earnings as of August 30, 2010.
