Weekly Purchases

I went with the shotgun approach today as I haven't made any weekly purchases this month. I think I picked up some good companies! Here they are.

• KMI:  8.09 shares @ $30.90 --- Yield  6.34%
• GM:  8.77 shares @ $28.50 --- Yield  5.05%
• PAYX:  5.64 shares @ $44.36 --- Yield  3.79%
• PG:  3.53 shares @ $70.90 --- Yield  3.74%
• KO:  6.41 shares @ $39.00 --- Yield  3.38%
• JNJ:  2.65 shares @ $94.36 --- Yield  3.18%
• WMT:  3.82 shares @ $65.38 --- Yield  3.00%
• UNP:  3.01 shares @ $83.10 --- Yield  2.65% 

Total capital invested is $2000 ($250 in each company). The combined yield is 3.89% and will increase my yearly dividends by $77.80.

New Purchase --- IBM

Today I added to my IBM position.

• IBM: 13 shares @ $143.44 --- Yield  3.63%

Total capital invested is $1871.67 which will increase my yearly dividends by $67.60.

I haven't made any weekly purchases this month yet, but intend to make several tomorrow. I hate letting the $12 go to waste! :-)

Exciting times are upon us. Be careful PUT sellers.

New Purhase --- CVX

Well I decided to add more shares of Chevron today.

• CVX:  30 shares @ $76.89 --- Yield  5.57%

Total capital invested is $2313.65 which will increase my yearly dividends by $128.40.

At this rate CVX will be yielding over 6% very soon! Shell is already over 7% and XOM is over 4%. Great times to keep adding energy names. Blood is all over this sector.

New Purchase --- BBL

Today I added to my BBL position.

• BBL: 100 shares @ $33.89 --- Yield  7.32%

Total capital invested is $3395.95. My yearly dividends should increase by $248.00 assuming BBL maintains its current dividend.

This is my only purchase so far this month. I will continue to take it easy, but will buy when something compelling comes along. WMT and CVX are at insane levels right now.

Taking a break for a while...

Some major life events have taken place recently, so I will not be making any posts for a while. I will still be here following everyone and will come back some time hopefully towards the end of this year. Until then, keep fighting hard for FI!!!
