Safe Dividend Investing

著者: Ian Duncan MacDonald
  • サマリー

  • In 2000, I lost $300,000 in mutual funds that an investment advisor had put my lifesavings into.... I lost it because I had entrusted it to an industry that does not educate investors nor encourage them to look closely at what that industry is doing with their money..... I set out to find a better, safer way to invest..... My podcasts relate to what I learned in creating a generous, reliable income and in growing my wealth.... A few of the more important lessons I learned and explore are:.... (1) It is critical that you become a self-directed investor.....(2) If you can not easily measure the risk and potential in an investment, then do not invest in it. This excludes from your portfolio bundled investment devices, like mutual funds, ETFs and Index funds,..... (3) Financially strong companies who have paid “good dividends” for decades will continue to stay strong and continue to pay good dividends because it is both part of their "character" and in their executives selfish interest.....(4) Diversification is critical. Investing equally in the best 20 strong dividend stocks is the ideal.....A portfolio of 20 limits your risk in any one stock to 5% of your wealth..... No matter how strong you think a stock is, do not fall in love with it..... I have lived very well off my steady dividend income for 18 years, through two market crashes and one pandemic. I have watched my portfolio’s capital more than triple from where I started, despite taking out a generous dividend income every year to live on... In charts, for my second investment book,(Safer Better Dividend Investing), I spent months scoring all 628 dividend stocks paying dividends of 6% or greater traded on the TSX, NYSE and the NASDAQ. I discovered dozens of stocks that can provide not only a generous dividend income but outstanding capital growth.....Financial independence is realizable for careful, patient, dividend investors.

    Welcome to this week's Safe Dividend Investing's podcast. For greater accuracy, you may want to go to the printed transcript provided with this podcast for the list of 5 outstanding US stocks and 5 outstanding Canadian stocks identified this week. It is interesting to see how scoring these 10 stocks revealed their hidden strengths and weaknesses that were not initially evident.

    The first 190 Safe Dividend Investing podcasts answered questions from listeners and readers of my publications. Not wanting to repeat the same material that had already been covered, the weekly podcasts now deal with identifying interesting stocks whose growth in the last week may make them worth considering as possible portfolio acquisitions.
