December dividend income

The month and with that the year is drawing to an end so it is time to write down my dividend income for December 2016.

December was the best month yet, almost tripling November. Five companies paid me for just owning their shares:

  • December 7th Unilever (AMS:UNA) paid €4,13
  • December 9th Whitestone REIT (WSR) paid €3.83
  • December 10th Target (TGT) paid €1.92
  • December 15th Coca-Cola (KO) paid €7.90
  • December 16th Royal Dutch Shell (AMS:RDSA) paid €26.48
These sums combined gave me a dividend income of €44.26.

This brings this years total to €114.56 for 2016. Al these amounts are after taxes.

How was your last dividend month of 2016?

For everyone, enjoy New Year's eve!!!

  2. Nice job DD. You made almost 39% of your annual dividend income this month. This must mean you've been adding shares the past few months. Impressive. I haven't added up my December totals yet, but I should end up with around $750 dollars.

New position AD

Yesterday I initiated a new postion. I bought 10 shares of Ahold Delhaize (AMS: AD). AD is company that was formed by the merger of Ahold from The Netherlands and Delhaize from Belgium. Ahold constists of their flagship Albert Heijn the market leader in supermarkets in The Neterlands, the largest liquor store chain Gall&Gall and the reason why Amazon doesn't have a big market share in Holland, bol.com . Most of these brands are also known in Belgium, but the main brand for Belgium is Delhaize. Aold Delhaize is also active in the United States with brands like: Foodlion Stop&Shop bfresh and many more.They are also active in Asia. I was eyeing for AD a little while but found them a bit expensive at a share price of €20 but since the announced takeover of Wholefoods by Amazon the share prices has taken a hit and closed at €16.04 yesterday. So it was now well within the price I was willing to pay for it. I bought 10 shares of AD at a share price of €16.30...

Dividend income april 2017

May is already a few days old and in The Netherlands we will tonight remember our fallen compatriots from World War II and later, and tomorrow we will celebrate our liberation from the Nazis. An update for my April dividend income is almost overdue. In april we received dividend from 3 companies: Coca-Cola (KO) paid us €8.49 Wal-Mart (WMT) paid us €2.03 Whitestone REIT (WSR) paid us €4.19 In total we received €14.71 after taxes, bringing our YTD Dividend to €89.20. We will breach the €100 mark in May.

New position: WMT

Today I initiated a new position. I bought 5 shares of Walmart (WMT) at $67.85 per share. Including transaction fees the cost basis is $67.95. Dividend yield is 2.9%. With this purchase my expected annual dividend income is increased with €8 to approximately €325. WMT has come down the last month. It is already climbing back up a little bit earlier this week. In the DGI community I don't see many purchases of WMT, but it is a strong company with a great divididend history. Also WMT pays dividend in the first month of every quarter, which are the off months for my portfolio at the moment. I now have initiated four new positions this year. That was one of the goals I set for 2017. The next months I won't be buying as much as the first 5 weeks of the year as we'll be paying off our mortgage more aggressively in the coming months.
