Low Oil Prices lends to 10 High Dividend Yielding Stocks

Blog

Since June 2014, the price of a barrel of oil has taken a bit hit. When such things happen, the stock market reacts quickly and penalizes companies in this industry. We saw what happened back in 2008 with banks, this time, the oil industry is hit. But there is a very good news coming with any stock drop; the dividend yield soars higher. This might be the opportunity you are looking for to buy cheap shares of high yielding dividend stocks. I’ve pulled out 11 oil industry companies paying over 4% …

Would you like to invest in a product that pays a 10% dividend yield and is built on banks and other blue chips?   This is what Dividend 15 Split Corp (DFN.TO) offers: a group of 15 companies where you can hold Class A and preferred shares.

2K Investment in my Portfolio

Blog, Portfolio Building

On Monday, I wrote about my lump sum dilemma. I had a big bonus this year, but I decided not to invest in the stock market and pay off my consumer debts instead. Eventually, this will leave me more cash flow to invest on a regular basis, so I guess it is a good decision ;-).   Where did the 2K Come From? One of my “debts” was to pay back my Home Buyer’s Plan (HBP). Each year, I “reimburse” 1K from the money I borrowed from my RRSP to buy my first house. It’s an amazing program we have …

What Would You Do With 10K?

Blog, Investing Strategy

A week ago, it was payday. But not just any ordinary payday, the big one! My year-end bonus was deposited in my bank account. The product of a long and hard year where I truly earned each dollar. Why do I do that? I’ll tell you here; it’s my little secret ;-). I’m not the kind of guy who wants to win contests (been there, done that), not the guy who wants to tell all his colleagues he’s the best and not the guy who’s looking for my boss’ appreciation. I’m simply the kind of guy who works hard to …

Enbridge (ENB) Vs Transcanada (TRP)

Blog, Canadian Dividend Stocks, Stock Analysis

A few weeks ago, a member of Dividend Stocks Rocks enquired about Enbridge and Transcanada. Since both companies are trading on the same symbol on both US and Canadian market and that they are at the center of the attention with the Keystone XL pipeline, I thought it worthwhile to take a look at them. While small oil companies cut their dividends and oil exploration related companies saw their contracts cut, there is still a type of company related to oil that is providing immediate growth …
