I continue to look for stocks that have good
fundamental financial values, but stock prices near 52 week lows and, where
possible, 5 year lows.

I started buying USO in November when it was
at $28 and oil was at $80 per barrel down from $105 in June. As oil continued going down, I bought more
USO. Now oil is at $54 per barrel which
is almost back to its low from 2009. USO
has pretty much stopped going down and has been around $20 for the past two
weeks. So, it is time for me to sell
some $20 PUTs on USO.

USO:
