- T: 25.99 shares @ $34.60 --- Yield 5.32%
- BBL: 13.94 shares @ $64.48 --- Yield 3.85%

Total capital invested is $3600 ($900 in each company). The combined yield on these purchases is 3.88% and will increase my yearly dividends by $139.68.

Well so much for the much anticipated correction. I have not added to T or BBL since the beginning of the year. They both have come down in price recently and look good at these levels. MCD is still out of favor and provides decent value at these prices. KO is not cheap, but is worth adding pretty much anytime.
Note: This week's purchases are higher than normal and will continue to be higher during the next couple of months. The additional funds are coming from my recent mutual fund sale.
All very good buys. Investing such amount each week is pretty awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteT,
DeleteThanks buddy. I am using some of the funds from my recent mutual fund sale. T is starting to look pretty decent in a high market.

Wonderful to see these amounts being invested on a regular basis. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteDGJ,
DeleteThanks, you are making great progress yourself!

MDP,
ReplyDeleteNice buys, and way to go on keeping that streak alive. I'm also looking at T right now, but I'm also circling GE, VZ, and a few others. So many stocks, so little capital!
Keep up the great work. You're having a killer 2014!!
Best wishes.
DM,
DeleteThanks and I agree with you about T, GE, and VZ. They all solid in a high market environment.

This seems to be a nice and useful post that provides information about the sharebuilder purchases.
ReplyDeleteEpic Research,
DeleteSharebuilder is great and is much better than buying only large blocks which is what I was doing last year. I usually buy between 4 and 5 different companies each week.
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi there! I recently expanded my blogroll to a full page and found/added your site. Keep up the good work and enjoy the process!

MDP,
ReplyDeleteWow, that's an incredible amount of capital you are putting to work each week. I like all those purchases and just added a little more BBL myself recently after the pullback. Keep up the good work!
AAI,
DeleteThanks bud. Part of the capital came from my recent sale of some mutual fund shares. BBL continues to look good and I will most like add more next week.

T's dividend yield is getting increasingly hard to pass up. The medium term revenue drivers for the stock still look good in my opinion. 5.3% is a huge guaranteed amount to bank up front!
ReplyDeleteIntegrator,
DeleteT looks really good here and probably won't fluctuate to far from these prices in either direction. I am ok with that since I would like to continue adding to my position over the coming years.
