Month-End portfolio snapshot 11/2022

 Hello! You know what, this type of investing is really great. Once you start with dividends and with longterm vision, then it is very easy to follow and time is money :-) . 

I can imagine writing this article for 2023 with same attitude, as first dividends are rolling into my account and I own also couple stocks, that are outperforming indexes, so it is very positive combination.

Let's have a look on my transactions during November

I bought new stock $PTVE , it is also IPO stock from 2020, so when I mean new, it's really in all way :-) . Then I added couple stocks into old cyclical $AEO , which really did a big impact on portfolio performance, as this stock is now around 16$ ! I know, they skipped last dividend payout, but I am ready to sell this stock with 100% gain and buy it back, when it will drop below 11-12 , as it did many times before (zoom out your charts - use weekly/monthly timeframe)

This chart is looking funny, but I see it in one year and I am sure, this will be outperformed many times, slowly compounding, reinvesting, money generating money! I love it.

I have short list of stocks, I might buy this month, I want first transfer money from my income (200-230$), trading account (7$) , plus received dividends (10$) and couple bucks from last month transaction, which I didn't use (20$) , this gives me buying "power" around 250$ for this month. 
Projected dividend income is looking better not every month, but almost every week, as companies are increasing dividend amount paid to their stockholders - see last row at the bottom, 18$ in dividends for this month! In March it is 18,10$ , in June 18,34$ , small but steady + my additional deposits, it be soon above 25$ :-) / month . And my modest goals for 2023 is to achieve at least one month with 40$ in dividends and 250$ / year , so I will do my best to achieve it.

Time is running, so here is another month summary. I didn't mention couple transactions, I am slowly transfering small chunks of money from various sources into this account, so beginning looks faster, than I thought, which makes me happy. 

During October I did these purchases:

I am trying to accumulate bigger positions ( $MAIN ), but I am also buying stocks from various sectors for better diversification. Market is still very low prior to all time highs, so I feel some urge to buy as often as possible. Next huge motivation gives me, how projection of future dividends is slowly increasing, which is very positive, so I can use more money for investing and increasing my contributions, big dreams with small steps! I started couple times with dividend portfolio in past, but I never prepared myself to this approach, so my greed convinced me to stop it and trade only growth stocks for quick profit - which is also great way, how to create wealth, but far from easy!

Here is my current portfolio:

Yes, I almost doubled my account in one month, so this was unplanned, but I found ways with more money streams ( couple $ from here and there ) , I couldn't resist to not invest it :-)  .

Current dividend income projection is around 145$/year, I plan to add around 500$ till the end of year, so it should be over 150$ of dividend income with ending account value at the end of year. I already overcame some of my goals for 2022 and I will adjust next goals for 2023 to be more challenging, but still achievable.

Goals for 2022

 Only couple weeks left till the end of the year, but I want to address some current goals. You know, small steps are the way and tracking, navigating them in right direction, that is also helpful routine. And to be honest, dividend investing is very boring in matter of action, so I need to have goals in front of me.

Let's have a look, how does it look. Nothing complicated...

added to MAIN

 Hello there! I am slowly adding more money, so for today it was 6 shares of $MAIN @ 35,12 . This stock is generating dividends on monthly basis, which will add couple coins into pocket. I pay very low commissions, so I can buy more often without big impact to my dividend growth income. These days with nervous market and sharp declines are interesting to accumulate more stocks, so I hope, I will tranfer more funds.

How deep is bear market?

Hello world! We have friday, nice gap down at the market opening, panic or not to?
$SPY index is testing 2020 end of year price, what now?
From my "investor" view, I feel comfortable, because I am aiming with dividend portfolio to next decade. Great example of market behavior are these pictures, more examples can be found here on Brian's Revue site, or on his Twitter.

Let's start! With 1000$ ? Huh? No way

Yes!

You see amount of my starting capital, which I decided to invest into my dividend growth portfolio. So this project starts on very low budget since first day.
I know, that this will be long journey, but regular part of savings transferred into this account might do the trick. I want to buy stocks during sharper dips, for growth trending stock I use different strategy, account. But if...big IF some of these stocks offer in future strong moves, I am keen to sell them for profit, too.

So here we go, my first batch bought yesterday, during nervous market, waiting for multiple news from around the World.

You might see more stocks delivering monthly dividends, also not very well balanced diversification. I will work on this slowly, as I gather more experience with this type of investing. Yes, I am completely newbie in this! 

My trading account is held by Interactive Brokers and I will track my portfolio in Google sheets + on this website Digrin.com , where is very structured view on all key info about dividend stocks and also handy stock screener. So, that's all for today, have a great time and thank you for visit on my blog.
