"The market correction has opened up some preliminary value bargains that are worth mentioning. With a long term perspective you can get some wonderful investments".

Dow Jones Industrial Average 25,339.94  (Down) 
Week ending 10/12/2018    S & P 500 - 2767.13

You are probably thinking I have been really lazy and kicking back on doing my blog , but I have been very busy in my business and personal life and just got back from a business trip in Houston, TX. The current and very normal correction has opened up some opportunities to purchase stocks at a bargain.  I will list them in no particular order.

United Rentals Inc. - (URI)  - $137.88   Plenty of earnings here going forward and a real bargain.

Capital One Financial Corp - (COF) - $90.79 Great entry point for long term investment. Still operated by the family founders of the company. 

Celgene -(CELG) - $82.58  Earnings rolling up well here. Need to check if affected by new generic products. Watch the revenue growth numbers with recent slowing.

ZTO Express - (ZTO) $16.25 - this transporter/ deliverer of Alibaba products in China through a woven delivery network. Great forward growth potential.

Whirpool - (WHR) - $103.83 - Buy this one after the earnings call on October 26th. Probably will take a hit on the tariffs, but will give you a great entry point then. This has most everything priced in already and tends to correct earlier then others.

Colfax Corp - $32.29   - This "baby" Danaher industrial fits perfect in your portfolio here and is a great value. 

You should do some extra homework on these just to make sure that you want to invest for a 2 to 3 year period.  URI and ZTO are probably the most timely buys right here of the group.
