Recent purchase updates

Its been couple weeks since I last post an updated purchase order. So lets catch up on recent purchases and set the path for next months watch list.

So without further ado here is the recent purchase for the month of October so far.

Individual Sharebuilder acct:

CLX $55 .4167 shares @ $122.52
FAST $50 1.2116 shares @ $38.01
CL $50 .6368 shares @ $72.32

This adds $51.95 to my forward yearly dividend to $1102.59.
It is specially satisfying to buy to off my favorite holding, that of CAT and PG. Albeit at high level, I don't really see where else to keep building shares a little bit at a time.

Since I have pretty much achieve my first years goal of receiving $500 in dividend and grow forward dividend to over $1000, I have been thinking if its wise to continue the course given that the market its at almost all time highs. I am not really into chasing the market low but the possible crash at any given day does seem realistic at this point. What are you doing are you hoarding cash at this level waiting for a pullback?

What have you been buying?
What do you think of my recent purchases?

TOTAL 99.89

So close to reaching the $100.00 mark. This could almost cover this month electric bill of $145.00. Most of recent purchases have been focusing on my ROTH and IRA accounts, and the transfer of my Loyal3 account to JR. But it still inch me closer to first year dividend mark of $500.

My forward dividend now stands at $1050.64 after this month dividend reinvestment of $6.86

Also the first three quarters total dividend now stands at $485.50, I will definitely take that since I hope to only achieve $500 for the year and built the forward dividend to $1000 this year.

About you how did you do last month?

What do you think of recent purchases?
What are you buying?
Are you waiting for a pullback in the market?

As I see it building a dividend portofolio takes time and some luck as there is no way to correctly time the market. I will be buy regardless of the market condition as I see myself in the initial stage of accumulation phase. This is why I am also still automatically reinvesting my dividend to keep adding shares of this wonderful companies.

Recent raises September 2016

Raises update
With August firmly on the books, it's time to catch up with recent activity within my portofolio to review where we going, and plan ahead towards year end to meet each goals outline from the outset. What better way to start then to review recent dividend increases announcements. Since everyone on the planet loves to receive a raise here and there just to maybe keep up with inflation. The cost of living has been on a rise in the last 15 years at an increditable pace. 

This is one reason I love the aspect of investing in dividend growth stocks. They at least try to keep up with inflation and the power of compounding takes over like a snow ball effect. So without further ado let's review some recent raises announcements.

K from .50 to .52 a 4% increase announced back in July 29, 2016. The Ex-Div Aug 30 Payable Sept 15

KHC from .575 to .60 a 4.3% increase Ex-Div Aug 24 payable Oct 7

ITW from .55 to .65 a 18% increase Ex-Div Sept 28 payable Oct 6

BNS from C$.72 to C$.74 a 2.8% Increase Ex-Div Sep 30 payable Oct 27

VZ from .567 to .5775 a 2.2% increase Ex-Div Oct 5 payable Nov 1

Amazing receiving a raise without lifting a finger to at least keep up with the federal target inflation rate of 2%. I will definetelly take that anyway.

My forward yearly divided is now $954.83 after the $4.68 increase in dividend this will go towards compounding my dividend that I will be receiving going forward.

How about you have you received any recent dividend increases?

Specially since it required no work in my part, just the for sight of investing in this wonderful company small chunk at a time.

So eithout further ado here is my payout:

Total $95.61

Wow, almost broke the three digit mark for the second time, but I am sure I will break it next month.

This covers a few bills that are due this month, like electrical bill which usually is around $62 for the 

month of August and gas $37. I will definitely take that anytime two bills I wont have to worry about paying if i just stop investing, but we all know that not gone happen since my ultimate goal is to have all my bills cover by dividend receive.

About you how did you do last month?
