I've owned Dollar General previously this year. I built up a position of 15 shares by buying the stock at $207 in April and $206 at the end of May. I sold the position in August near this year's peak with a 17.4% return in a couple of months. I recognize the company as an excellent defensive investment where the company is growing revenues at an attractive rate while at the same time showing good profitability. I entered the stock again as the share price had come down, and the stock took a slight beating from the earnings release. My cost basis is $219 for ten shares of the companies stock.
