August 2018 Stock Consideration

Another month has begin and it is time to plan ahead and see what potential stocks, I could add to my collection. Last month ended with a bang and I add few good names to my collection. I hope to do the same this month. It was a busy month for sure, now will see how my new rental cash flow will contribute to my stock purchases. All the units have been rented after two months in the market and completed the screening of new tenant candidates. The new tenants are moving in today and the check for first and last was deposit into the account yesterday and the security deposit will be deposited by next Monday. 

Now it is time to look at potential stocks I have my eye on. However, like the saying goes Mr. Market could always present a different opportunity that open the door for other unseen opportunity.

Now lets take a look at some stocks on my wish list: PFE, AES, ETN, SO, JNJ, XOM, CVX, BP, SBUX, C, BBT, AEP, ADM, PPG, BA, PSX, DFS, LMT, LTC, MAIN, O, EPR, STAG, OGS, WTR, UTX, ED, K, UNP, NSC, AFL, MSFT, SU, SUN, CINR, and HCP.

That is a long list, realistically I may be able to add 5 new names. I hope to start adding shares to my already good list of collection on my fund.

July 2018 VI purchase

July VI Purchase

It has been another extraordinary month for sure. To end it, there is no better way than to add to my collection of dividend paying stocks who will contribute to my early retirement fund sooner rather than later. We all strive for one thing in life. That is enjoy life to the fullest with our love ones and enjoy the hard labor we put forth in our early years. So it is no surprise that I am putting forth the hard work now to enjoy my FIRE soon enough.

So without any further ado...here is what I collected this week to end month of July:

July 30, 2018
CFG 3 Shares @ $40.24 Total $120.72
WES 6 Shares @ $52.21 Total $313.26

Citizens Financial Group is a regional bank, headquarter in Providence, Rhode Island. They serve Most of New England States. It is one of the Major bank in Massachusetts and it was my first bank that I first started using about 25 years ago. It was part of Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), before it was separated from RBS.

It has instituted a good dividend policy soon after went public few years ago. At the time it did not pay dividend and I did not want to buy it, however the time is right to start adding shares here and build a portfolio around this up and coming dividend achiever.

WES, has long been part of my portfolio since 2010, at one time or another. So when I decided to add oil this month it was part of my pick. I will add more oil companies soon hopefully before September to finish the sector.

What do you think of recent purchase? What are you buying and will buy next month?

Recent Purchase V July 2018

Recent Purchase V

As the Market closed on Monday I pull the trigger on another stocks I long coveted to own. I last owned this stock in 2006-2007 before it filled for bankruptcy and it has now emerge as strong competitor in the industry. There other two (2) stock I purchase is well respected and has continually increase dividend to keep up with inflation.

After recent sell-off in Capital One Investing, I moved the capital to Robin Hood (RB) and I have taken the opportunity to both diversify and buy strong long term stocks to hold for as long as they keep raising their dividend.

So without further ado...here is what I purchased:

July 23, 2018
FAST 5 Shares @ $57.96 Total $289.82
CVS 6 Shares @ $66.36 Total $398.16
DAL 7 Shares @ $52.25 Total $365.75

July 26, 2018
EPR 6 Shares @ $66.52 Total $399.12
O 7 Shares @ $55.89 Total $391.22
HEP 10 Shares @ $31.66 Total $316.59
PAA 10 Shares @ $24.67 Total $246.70
AGNC 10 Shares @ $19.42 Total 194.20

Wow, I like this bunch a lot, for me it has been a long time coming for me to own DAL again. I last sold all my share in 2007 right before they filled for bankruptcy. Consistent dividend increase has convince me. It is also my first airline stocks, there are others I like a lot in the industry however the dividend policy has not been a good one so far.
