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 …

20 Strong Dividend Growth Stocks – Rock Solid Ranking Free Report

Best Dividend stocks, Blog, Investing Strategy

Last year, I created the Rock Solid Ranking, a dynamic stock ranking list that shows a value for each dividend stock I follow. I’ve worked on calculations that consider several metrics in order to find the best companies among all those on the stock market.

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.

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 …

4 Strong Dividend Growth Stocks for your RRSP

Blog

When investing for your retirement, be sure of one thing; the investment should allow you to sleep well at night. When you build a retirement portfolio, the very first thing you want is to buy solid companies that will be there for the next 50 years. A classic quote from Warren Buffett was that he always pick shares of a company that he would feel good about even if the stock market had to close for 10 years. In other words; the world’s most successful investor doesn’t pick up the flavor of the …
