Recent Buy --- PG


Today I started a position in P&G.





  • PG: 30 shares @ $83.67 --- Yield  3.20%

Total capital invested is $2516.99 and will add $80.40 to my yearly dividends. 

Yesterday both Procter and Coke were downgraded to sell by Goldman Sachs with target prices of 77 and 39 (target yields of around 3.5%). Both are due for dividend raises soon. I'll definitely use the opportunity to add to both positions if they display further weakness. 

Also GIS is closing in on $60 so I am certainly looking to initiate a position soon. 

Forward dividends are around $6200.00

  1. Nice buy! I have shares on PG. I am eyeing on KO, and would like to buy a lot if it ever drops below $40.

    1. MU,

      It looks like KO is getting closer to $40. I last bought at $39.99 on a limit order a month or so ago. I would love to add more!

  2. Solid Bobby Orr Score MDP! I got my eye on this bad boy as well! Will add more just below $80, if it gets there. Salivating at the thought of adding GIS below $60. Cheers!

    1. AG,

      Thanks for the kind words. GIS and PG are high on my list right now! I need a true food company in the portfolio. Would rather get MCD, but the price just won't come down far enough. GIS is a great alternative.

  4. Nice buy MDP!

    Indeed the Consumer Staples are finally getting a better value. UL is in the same boat as is SJM. I guess we should thank Wall Street for downgrading bread...

  6. MDP -

    Welcome to the PG club, eyeing them down, as well, and there are 7 days before they go ex-dividend... keep that in mind in case they go lower. I may scoop up some more to get to the position I want with them. Love their brands. Div increase come April.

      Yes it would be great to get a full 4 quarters of dividend payments out of this iconic company. Keep killing it over there!

  7. Good buy. I sold a put on PG yesterday. If it drops a few bucks, I'll be the proud owner of 100 shares.
