Not much to really say, so I’ll just keep it really brief this time. I bought more shares of AWP. Again. For September’s buy, I bought 290 shares at $5.543 per share, which adds $14.50 to my monthly income, raising my projected monthly dividend income to $747.33. Thanks to this buy I’m almost at my …

This month I bought 280 shares of Alpine Global Premier Properties Fund (NYSE:AWP) at $5.70 per share, for a total of 350 shares. This isn’t a new addition to my portfolio, as I bought 70 shares last October. With an annual dividend yield of 10.53%, it was a good choice for making up for last …

Time for another monthly stock buy report. For my first stock buy in July, I didn’t go for an ETF (my usual modus operandi) and instead bought shares of a single company: DHT Holdings Inc (NYSE:DHT). I bought 120 shares at $4.936 per share. With a quarterly divided of 25 cents per share, it has …

Another month, another stock buy! For June, I made only one stock buy: Wells Fargo Advantage Income Opportunities Fund (NYSEMKT:EAD). I bought 160 shares at $8.01 per share. With a dividend of 6.8 cents per share, those 160 shares will payout $10.88 every month for an annual yield of 10.19%. As per my usual format …

This month I didn’t add any new positions to my dividend investing portfolio. Instead, I just bought more shares of stock positions I already hold. I bought 75 more shares of Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Income Fund (NYSE:EDF) at $13.36 per share. With a dividend of 18 cents per share, that will add $13.50 every …

How’s your April going? I hope the spring market rally has been treating your portfolio well. For April’s stock buys, I didn’t add any new positions to my portfolio. I just bought additional shares of positions already part of my dividend investing portfolio. With no new positions, this will be a rather short post, as …

Thanks to February’s dividend payouts and my matching program’s funds, I started March with fresh capital for buying more dividend stocks. This month I bought something old and something new. First, I bought an additional 50 shares of CODI at $14.40 per share, lifting my total shares of CODI to 150. My average yield for …

With the new month came some new dividend stock buys. However, this month I didn’t buy into anything new and just bought additional shares of stocks that I already have. So this post will be rather short, as there’s not much to really say that hasn’t already been said before. This month I bought an …

When my cash reserve had built back up after December’s dividend payouts and some matching cash transferred, I started January well equipped to make one or two stock buys. The selloffs and turmoil currently roiling the world’s markets makes for a great time to buy stocks at a discount (and hence a higher dividend yield). …

There really isn’t much to say about my latest buy of Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund (NASDAQ: CHW), a closed-end fund that’s widely invested in individual companies, convertables, and corporate bonds. Last month I bought 150 shares of CHW, and early this month I bought an additional 150 shares at $7.40 per share, bringing my …
