<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 1282939, member: 3011&quot;]I use a slightly different definition.&nbsp; I never buy a poor performing stock cheap.&nbsp; I try to buy quality at a discount.&nbsp; For example, my purchases in 2011 include XOM at $69, BDX at $69, and INTC at $19 [and change].&nbsp; These are for illustrative purposes only and not recommendations.&nbsp; Growth is just part of the value calculation, and I prefer companies with growing dividends, low debt, free cash flow and a low price to earnings.&nbsp; When I buy something, I tend to hold it for several years to give it time for the value to be recognized in the stock price.&nbsp; This is what has worked for me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
