Nothing wrong with HSY as it is a great long term dividend payer and solid company all around. I just think that the Canadian banks, energy and many industrial plays like EMR, MMM and CAT are starting to look even more attractive.

And maybe I just haven't messed around with it as much. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-2550894041395464432015-07-24T12:35:30.193-05:002015-07-24T12:35:30.193-05:00Hustler,

Two great sectors to be in, but unfortunately both sectors are generally a bit expensive. But you can find value from time to time. Just upset I missed the dip into the $87-88 range for HSY during the Grexit worries. Oh well, I'll add more share of this excellent company in the future.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-62923278561128620322015-07-24T10:46:53.586-05:002015-07-24T10:46:53.586-05:00Eric,

The brand name here in the US is strong and I'd love to see a real push into international markets. The Chinese expansion isn't going great just yet but the great this is the strength of the US operations affords them time to figure out the international game plan and strategy.<br /><br />It's funny I keep thinking of taking it off because it takes up a lot of space on the sidebar but it's so useful that I never do. Glad that you enjoy it as well.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-73143826326359639672015-07-24T10:44:07.761-05:002015-07-24T10:44:07.761-05:00Adam,

I think the international space is what could provide big growth for them going forward but there is a lot more competition there. Plus the chocolate they make in the US is different than the chocolate that's made in Europe so the texture/taste is different. But if HSY can sacrifice a bit on their margin to try and gain share outside of the US. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-4055372877716544492015-07-24T10:40:38.255-05:002015-07-24T10:40:38.255-05:00R2R,

Especially since they can grow volume and increase prices. That's always a good combination.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-10210264992826451162015-07-24T09:09:21.447-05:002015-07-24T09:09:21.447-05:00Nice buy here, JC.

It's a great, easy-to-use online brokerage. I'm curious about your affiliate link -- is that a special kind of link? If so, how did you go about setting it up?FerdiShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05008021146951839361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6587699706949333863.post-4137976492142127002015-07-23T09:53:49.966-05:002015-07-23T09:53:49.966-05:00Thanks for sharing JC.

I was always a little underwhelmed by the yield, but it's competitive advantage and strong brand make it too compelling to ignore any longer. I think Dividend Mantra just bought HSY for the first time a couple weeks back, as well.<br /><br />And on an unrelated note, your blogroll on the right is my first stop each morning.
