Dividend Growth Forum

I had sold out of LMT in q1. Starting back a small position$60 cheaper. Hope I am
Able to build it back at $350ish.

Sold out of OCBI today. With the upcoming merger, it wasn't worth holding to get 10.5 cents more per share. Nice small cap that I didn't want to get bought out by a larger company. Nice 45% gain in this market. Too bad my entire portfolio wasn't in it. Will decide what to buy tomorrow with the proceeds.

Initial position in IIPR. I has sold this one at $276 and now bought back under $89

You did see the news about one of IIPR's tenants going under? 
I still have IIPR, from a long long time ago. It has been a great investment but now it looks like those risks are possibly materializing. 
I'm still holding onto it, and will keep on holding, simply due to an impressive yield coupled with good dividend growth. But it's a risky play now. 

Also, I don't know what LMT has screwed up but that report was underwhelming in every regard. Of course their long-term business will do fine over the next decades and probably centuries, but I was not thrilled to see those numbers.

Yes, I know the news on IIPR. But they already have new buyers lined up for those spaces. Down at these levels the risk isn't that big of deal like it was at $270+ 

And I can wait with that yield. Now if they cut that yield then the story will change for me.

New position in MDT

I also bought MDT and also took a new position in DLR

I'm starting to look at aristocrats on sale. These 2 I like.

EQR I may buy as well

I still have about 40% cash to put to work. Hoping the UTES get dumped hard so I can add

Might get some OPs in dividend stocks as the market decide if it wants to rotate back to growth.  Seems early for that but who knows?  The rotation likely will be sudden.

T down 10%. All those dividends wiped out in a blink of an eye. That was one of the worst conference calls I ever listened to.

Added ALL down $10

Added TSCO, ALL, PM, and IIPR

Added vz

DFS down over $11 on probe on it's student load business.

Anyone own? Looks cheap but this kind of news scares me

I needed to buy something, and once again, there really aren't too many great deals out there. Can we have a proper crash please?

So I just kept increasing my MSFT position. Awesome company, close to 1 year lows, but still not cheap.
