Update for April 12, 2013

This Week's Activity:
Dow Jones 30 and S&P 500 hit all time highs again this week.  I am continuing to hold on to cash in anticipation of a market drop.  If the market drops, that will be the time when I hope to see StockEvaluator.xls start to help us identify a lot of good companies that are near their 52 week lows.   This weeks "StockEvaluator.xls Short List" view that is available at the bottom of the UltimateStockFinder home page contains the 15 companies for this week that are within 5% of their 52 Week Low and also have less than 5 Red Cells.  Six of them are gold mining companies, that I am afraid can continue to drop a lot more, so I am waiting before I buy any of these 6.   Three of the others have revenue less than $200 million which is too small for my low risk tolerance.  Of the remaining 6 companies, 2 have debt to equity > 100% (my max. acceptable value for this is 50%).  Of the last 4, I already own AAPL and am looking at the last 3, but am not ready to buy when the market is so high.  I would rather hold on to my cash than buy a company right before the market takes a drop.
