Recent Buy --- TIS & DIS






Today I initiated positions in Orchids Paper Products and Disney.

  • TIS:  60 shares @ $28.28  Yield  4.95%
  • DIS:  17 shares @ $97.45  Yield  1.46%

Total capital invested is $3367.33. The combined yield is 3.21% and will add $108.14 to my yearly dividends. 

After recently reaching $36 a share, TIS has finally started coming back to earth so I took the opportunity to pick up some shares around the 5% yield range. The DIS dividend yield isn't overly impressive, but the 10 year 23% annual dividend growth rate is off the charts.

I have been watching FLO recently as well and it's dividend yield is approaching 4.5% so I may initiate a position fairly soon. I don't know if it the yield will reach 5% or not, but I would definitely be a buyer there.

Forward dividends are $3500.00

  1. Great buys MDP. We own both companies in our family's dividend stocks portfolio. Both are certainly trading at a discount to their 52-week highs.

    Thanks for sharing. AFFJ

    1. desidividend,

      I like your thinking about lower prices. I too have bought shares in the $21 range a year or so ago. I don't know if it gets that low again, but if it does I will add more shares.

      I made the decision to start a position in DIS after taking a vacation to Disney World last week. That place is a giant cash register. Maybe I'll get some of my money back from this investment. :-)

  4. MDP,

    That DIS growth is money. So much room for more, and a top notch understanding of their industry. I don't know much about TIS, though I've heard good things. Still, DIS is boss.

    1. DG,

      From what I saw while vacationing there last week, the business model is damn near perfect. Blockbuster movies, TV networks, magestical theme parks, and some iconic brands. It was very impressive, not to mention expensive. I hope to add more share at lower prices.
