Recent buy: Unilever

After Donald Trump was voted the next president of the USA, the general idea was that stock markets would take a dive.
It looked like that was going to happen at the opening of the Amsterdam stock market, but with predictions of a 20 point drop (5%) the AEX is now only 1% negative.

However one of my favourite Dutch dividend stocks, Unilever (AEX: UNA) has dropped within 1 euro of its 52 week low.

So I bought another 8 shares of UNA at €37,25. Including transaction fees I paid €300,05 in total, making it €37,51 per share.

I no own 23 shares of UNA which I bought at average costs of €39,21.

This purchase will increase my annual dividend by €10,24 before taxes bringing it to €260 per year before taxes.

I hope there will be a dip at the start of the markets in the USA as well. Than I will try to make another purchase on a new position.

  1. I like the UL buy as I have made the same purchase myself last week. I think it's going to stay popular for a while if it stays around $40 or below. Thanks for sharing.

Dividend Update

It's been quiet here on the blog for a while now. Nothing's wrong but I was very busy at work and at home and didn't feel the energy to write some blogs. But now that everything is calming down a bit, it is time to pick up where I left off. I've been investing a bit in the last month. I bought 10 extra UNA shares and also 11 shares of OHI. Both when they were dipping after their reported Q3 results. Also I started investing in a new Mutual fund, which invests mainly in bonds. In total I invested just short of 900 Euros for an expected anual dividend increase of €33. I also collected dividends in september and october. In september I received €58.82 an increase of 270% compared to last year. In november I received €15.58, an increase of 80% compared to last year.

May 17: Dividend income

June has already started so it is time to report my dividend income in May. May was a better month than February, but it could have been even better. Because the dollar took a hit compared to the Euro, my income in Euro's suffered a bit. I received dividend from the follwing companies: Whitestone REIT (WSR): €5.39 Omega Healthcare Investors (OHI): €19,31 Texas Instruments (TXN): €1,53 Abbvie (ABBV): €1,47 Kempen Global High Dividend Mutual Fund: €4,86 (DRIP) Total net dividend income was €32,56, breaking the €100 YTD and almost equalling the total dividend income of 2016. I cannot compare this month's income with last year, because last year I didn't receive any dividends. How was your May dividend income? I will updat my dividend income page soon..

Recent purchase: BNS

With the money I had from the sell of ABBV I expanded on my BNS position. I bought another 4 shares. For my net dividend income the sell and buy have a small impact. I lost €8 by selling ABBV and I gained €10.60 by buying BNS. I bought BNS at $62.55 a share. With a quarterly dividend of $0.63, BNS yields 4%.
