Dividend Growth Index Ranking

Blog, Site Introduction

  Back in January, I started a power ranking over our Dividend Growth Index. The ranking was done purely based on my perception of each stock. Unfortunately, I couldn’t analyze all 24 stocks. This is why the ranking was not fair for all stocks (especially since I didn’t know all of them inside & out).   I’m trying it again this month with a different method. I’m actually rating the 24 stocks according to my secret algorithm (I’m playing Google here ;-) lol!). But seriously …

What You Need To Know About ETF Investing

Blog, Site Introduction

    I obviously write a lot about dividend investing on this blog because this is what I do. I also have this recurring discussion with my best friend who rather prefers a mix of ETFs and Dividend Stocks as opposed to a nearly “perfect” dividend portfolio. I guess there will always be this battle between capital growth and dividend growth as well as asset diversification vs sector diversification (I told you I don’t like bonds, right?).   I’ll leave these debates for …

Dividend Stock Battle Can Campbell Soup Flood Heinz Ketchup

Blog, Site Introduction

    Back in February, I pulled out the HZN Stock Analysis and ended-up with a mild interest for this stock. In fact, HZN does fit in a dividend portfolio if you are looking for stability with a relatively safe dividend payout. Considering its yield, I think it would please many investors. However, I don’t see much growth potential over the years to come and this is why I wasn’t that enthusiastic towards the stock. Today, I’m taking a look at Campbell Soup (CPB) to see if the soup …

TSX 60 Dividend Yield Ex-Dividend Date

Blog, Site Introduction

I know you've been waiting for it once again ;-)   The TSX 60 Dividend Yield and Ex-Dividend Date is always one of my most popular of the month. I think it's due to the amount of information you can easily find about the most important Canadian Dividend Stocks.     This is an interesting moment for Canadian Stocks as oil price is surging (and so does the Canadian energy sector), Canadian Banks are, once again, about to announce millions of profit and there is this …

Performing Stocks, When It’s Time To Move On

Blog, Site Introduction

    I’ve always found that buying stocks is easy while selling them requires tough decisions. I mean; when they are underperforming, you hope that they will bounce back.  And when they are outperforming, you will continue to surf the wave and become greedy. On Monday, I told you what I will do with my underperforming stocks. Today, I’m looking at stocks that have been good for me so far.   In my portfolio, I have 3 stocks that have been particularly good so far (click …

Underperforming stocks when you should sell

Blog, Site Introduction

    Usually, when your arm itches, you simply scratch it a little bit with the tip of your finger and are fine a few minutes later. You simply move on and don’t even think about it. Unless it keeps itching and starts to drive you crazy. At what point would you “give-up” and jump in your car to go to the drugstore to get something strong to calm the itch?   This is about the same thing that could happen in your portfolio with underperforming stocks. Sometimes, you have …
