New Purchase: Apple

I purchased 12 shares of Apple (AAPL) source: ycharts AAPL already represents 13% of the holdings in my RRSP account.

New Purchase: Royal Bank

Blog, Canadian Dividend Stocks

  Things move so fast recently that I completely forgot to update you on my most recent purchases! In January, I bought shares of 4 different dividend growth companies. I already mentioned my purchases of MMM and EMA.TO. This means I have two more companies to tell you about! During the same month, I decided to add a Canadian bank to my children’s tuition fund (RESP) portfolio. Since I will not need this money for another 10 years, I thought it was a good time to add one of those …

Freedom Cash Flow Update

Blog, Retirement

Back in December, I introduced the notion of building a cash flow generating machine instead of amassing an enormous pile of cash that would generate a similar cash flow. In order to finance my RV project, I needed an effective way to make it happen. I didn’t want to do it the classic way by patiently waiting each month to put money aside and build a pile of cash that would finance the project. This is not only the classic way to fund a project, but also the most secure way to achieve it. Since …

Consumer Defensive – Ready to Face the Bear

Blog

The month on the stock market has been quite hectic but it seems that earnings are bringing back some calm to the Street. We see that after January 20th, the market started to bounce back after good earnings’ reports. It is still unclear if we will suffer a bear market or are just going through a correction with greater volatility. On the Canadian stock market, we hit the -20% return from the TSX summit of 2015 and can technically call it a bear market. However, we don’t need much to turn …
