New position: TGT

Door
Today I started another new position. I bought 5 shares of Target Corporation (TGT) at a price of $66.65 a share. Although I had zero shares of TGT it is not a totally new postion. In November 2016 I bought and sold a few shares for a hefty profit.
Back  then I bought the shares for almost the same price $66.80 and sold them for $77.25 and also picking up a quarter of dividend in the process.

TGT was down heavily today after presenting disappointing Holiday season sales. Now the share price is back down to the level of November. While the share price in dollars was a bit lower than when I bought the shares in November, the amount I had to pay in Euros was a bit higher due to the stronger dollar.

Including transaction fees the total costs are €313.19. With TGT paying $2.40 per year it the yield is 3.6%. My expected forward dividend is increased by €9.62 fastly approaching €300.

I now have added three new positions this month. And almost used all of the funds I designated for investing in the first Quarter. Next months will be slower I expect.

    Nice TGT buy. I saw the price dip today and though about buying more shares. I'll wait a few days and see if it continues to slide.

    thx, I don't know if the price will drop any further or will recover somewhat. This is within the pricerange I want to buy the stock. If it drops any further I might pick up a few shares extra.

New position AD

Door
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...

New position:Target Corporation

Door
In the aftermath of the Trump election for president I already bought some shares of Unilever (AEX: UNA). At the opening of the New York Stock Exchange I also made a purchase of shares of a company I already owned"Target Corporation. Stock prices were going up and down at the beginning of the market and I bought 4 shares at $66.80 per share. Including transaction fees the total costs ware €61.12 per share. Target Corporation is a Dividend Aristocrat and has a record of 45 years of consecutive dividend growth. Target pays $2.40 per share per year, which gives me a yield on cost of 3.57% and will increase my 12 month forward pretax dividend income with €8.73 to €270.06. My net annual dividend income is now €229.55. Target will go ex dividend on November 14 th, so in 5 days I will earn the first dividends for this company This purchase will probably be the last one of the year because of expenses we are expecting in December.
