Rockwell Automation Inc (ROK) Quote

Nice. ROK, back over $300 again.

My ancient ROKwell Automation holding is soaring again after deal with MSFT hinted at. I've owned ROK since the 1990s. It's one of the few stocks where I've actually taken some profits. Twice as I recall.

My ROK was an old spinoff from Boeing. Yes, Boeing.

Red Hot ROK to buy Plex Systems for $2.22 billion

"(Reuters) - Rockwell Automation said on Friday it would buy business software maker Plex Systems for $2.22 billion in cash, as the U.S. industrial automation equipment maker looks to boost its revenue from cloud offerings.

An increasing number of organizations have been automating their operations during the COVID-19 pandemic and managing their manufacturing, supply chain and finances remotely.

Plex's platform helps customers to connect, automate, track and analyze their operations and supply chains, Rockwell said."

$208 is new record high for ROK

My shares go back 30+ years to Rockwell International which split into Rockwell Automation and Rockwell Collins in 2001. Each of those had numerous spinoffs. In 2018 Rockwell Collins was acquired by United Technologies (UTX) for cash and shares. United Technologies is in the process of merging with Raytheon and also spinning off two major divisions, Otis Elevator and Carrier Air Conditioning.

Among the old spinoffs were shares in auto parts company Meritor, some Boeing shares and a semiconductor maker, Conexant, which (somehow) became Skyworks Solutions (SWKS). SWKS traded at a few bucks a share a decade ago. Yesterday it closed at $125!

Virtually all those entities pay rapidly growing dividends. The two major surviving Rockwell divisions, ROK and UTX, closed at all-time highs recently on the NYSE.

The Rockwell saga is complicated, "BORING" and monumentally profitable... something Slobbering Penny Flippers wouldn't understand.

"Your stock???" I own about 17 individual stocks, all blue chips. The core of my portfolio are index funds which I've owned for 30+ years. Plus bonds. Been investing in stocks since I was age 19, long, long ago.
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/profilea.aspx?user=42712

Not sure why you are telling me this but thanks. Your stock is down 20% in the last year and is still struggling. Last week it was downgraded to underperform/sell. Insiders are selling for a reason.

Its pretty easy to make money in the market when it goes from 17,500 to 25,000. Much harder when the market stays flat or drops.

I've owned both Rockwell Automation and Rockwell Collins for many, many years. Rockwell International before that.

This has been a great shorting opportunity. Downgrades and insider selling. Lots of headwinds

"Rockwell Collins Launches Positive Train Control Shared Network Solution"

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/rockwell-collins-launches-positive-train-160500102.html

One huge winner has been ROK spinoff, Skyworks Solutions which was formed from Conexant. I never paid much attention to those shares until they pulled about a 10-bagger in the past few years. What a stock ROK and its children have been!

BTW, Rockwell Collins has solidly beaten ROK this past year.

I am still alive and kicking but don't log on to ihub very often.

Damn nice year.

"I don't own any bank stocks except for WFC just because they are all crooks and I don't want to associate with them."

The Irish banking calamity deserves an entire chapter in textbooks on economic history. Ireland is a tiny country (4 million people) where the entire banking system consisted of just 4 or 5 huge banks. Each bank was run by ego-maniacal chaps who mostly got their positions from family/political connections. The entire country, including government banking regulators, became swept up in a real estate bubble. There were virtually no naysayers. Students need to understand the risks from situations like that.

By contrast, the U.S. banking system and economy were diverse. But it's shameful that so many of our largest banks--but not Wells Fargo-- stumbled the worst. I had a big chunk of inherited Bank of America stock, a company that survives only due to government bailout and Uncle Warren's money and prestige.

Good thing that many of our second tier bank corporations were soundly run.

I'm prejudiced against several sectors: Banking always seems to be boom and bust. I don't love tech. I know retailing well, but I only have Walgreens there.

I've never liked restaurant stocks. But recently I did a survey of publicly owned restaurant stocks and was flabbergasted to see how well most of them have done lately. Worrisome to me that both Dunkin' and Krispy Kreme are soundly beating the market! Only MCD seems to be lagging, which is nutty.

I still hold most of them. Not Costco but all the others. I even have some of my original WMT which I bought in 1978 but I sold a big percentage of it over a decade ago mainly because it represented too large of a portion of my portfolio and its market cap was just too big for sizeable sustained growth. I don't own any bank stocks except for WFC just because they are all crooks and I don't want to associate with them.

I still own FXEN but I am not sure why. I only have 1000 shares of it so I put it in the category that I can't win them all.

The only serious acquisition I have made in the past year or so has been INTC. I think it will go up over the next couple of years and there is unlikely to be much downside. In the meantime I can live with a 4% dividend.

You are correct that it as been easy to do well the past couple of years by doing nothing more than just sitting on my hands.

I was just looking at your old stocks... Costco, Wells Fargo, BAM, your truck company and more. All are doing very well with the exception of FXEN which I gather is a small holding. You still have all those?

Doing well in this stock market has been a no brainer for those who held thru the 2009 collapse (too bad quite a few sold). Heck, even a troubled company like CAT isn't being punished much. Plus smaller caps and NASDAQ have way outperformed blue chips in 2013.

Glorious years for old school (buy quality and hold) investing.

I watch people here turning over their portfolios 10 times a year every year and I wonder why they never learn.

Another board that just had its first post in 2 1/2 years is BAM. Solid company with great returns (with the BIP spinoff as an additional bonus) and nobody is interested.
