Dividend Growth Investing for Financial Independence
Dividends, dividends, dividends… In times like this with a huge uncertainty about the evolution of the coronavirus and its impact on the economy and rising unemployment rates to level never seen before, it is a save heaven. Safe? Well, not as safe as in recent history.
At the same time, there is always an opportunity to pick up some really undervalued stocks – find out which one made it this month with a Yield on Cost of 37%.
February is over and it’s time to review my dividend income. It has been a very busy month for me. Dividend Growth Investing has its strong point in situations as we experience them right now in the markets. Unless dividends are being cut, the passive income will flow into your pockets no matter what the stock prices do.
During the month of February I received $792.75 in dividends from 15 different companies.
January is in the books and what a month it’s been. As explained in my previous month update I took the decision to basically liquidate my account with my previous broker and re-start with a new brokerage firm.

January was therefore quite the opposite. With my funds now available I have started to rebuild my portfolio. I deployed $70,910 in the stock market. One of the mayor changes is concentrating this portfolio on US stocks with the possibilities to write options.
We completed 2019 with full steam and some significant changes. I had been investigating to switch my portfolio over to another broker. The main reason is that with my current broker I cannot buy or sell options on american stocks. Since I move more and more to US stocks this has become a limitation which I believe limits my overall return.
The year has come to an end and my first full year of dividend growth investing is completed. During the month of December I received $349.86 in dividends from 14 different companies. In the table below are the details of which company contributed to my passive income. What a fanstastic result to close the year 2019!
Dividends, dividends, dividends – wow, another month has gone by and this one really has given me a boost. During the month of November I received $448.07 in dividends from 14 different companies.
