The Answer to a Investing in a Bubble Peak

Dividend Growth

About two weeks ago, I wrote an article about volatility. I was basically explaining that market timing was futile and investing in a high or in a low in the market has a very limited impact.This article was republished on Seeking Alpha. There were several investors over there who were happy to jump on the article to tell me that we were on a verge of a market collapse and that the stupidest move would be to invest at the moment. Their thesis is quite simple (man I should be damned to be so …

Four Different Ways to Achieve Financial Independence

Blog, Retirement

Financial independence… this concept has been discussed on so many blogs that I rarely write about it here. I’ve been working on my own crusade to reach financial independence since I entered the workforce back in 2003. I previously dedicated an entire blog to the topic, had some good fun and made some money with it.

The Normality is Called Volatility

Blog, Market Frenzy

“The only thing that doesn’t change, is change itself.” I believe that when we came to this Earth, each of us was granted with a set of special gifts.

We can change a few, but the picture is pretty much the same. One of my “gifts” is the ability to interpret and understand how systems work. I understand how patterns work together and how I can …

3 Month Results for my Best Dividend Stock Picks for 2016

Best Dividend stocks, Blog, Investing Strategy

The first quarter is now behind us and, funny enough, it has been quite a roller coaster of emotions. If you are like me and got lucky, you had some cash set aside to buy some bargains on the stock market. I personally made 5 purchases between January and February: Royal Bank (RY.TO) Agrium (AGU.TO) Union Pacific (UNP) 3M Co (MMM) Apple (AAPL) As you will see it on the following chart, there were 2 moments (one in January and one in February) where there was a panic feeling all over the …

Portfolio Update

Blog

Funny enough, I’m not the best guy around to update you on my own portfolio. I really like blogging about dividend investing, but I don’t talk too much about my own stuff. Once in awhile, I think it makes sense to share my portfolio with you (my portfolio page is currently up-to-date, yeah!). Instead of simply telling you how much I received in dividends, I’ll do a complete portfolio review with you. Investment Context An investment strategy is only good for a person if it meets its …
