At today's exchange rate, this purchase 50 shares of SKT
will increase € 45.72 ($ 51.03) of my expected annual net dividend income and
will increase my portfolio's projected annual net dividend income to € 10,870.00. With purchase price $ 25.44 plus commission ($ 5.00) my starting
yield on cost is 5.36%. After this acquisition, SKT's weight of my portfolio is about 0.30%
and its share of future annual dividend income is approximately 0.42%. During this year, I'm planning slowly to build up SKT's share of my portfolio, if the price remains at these levels.

Full Disclosure: Long SKT
Not a common dividend stock purchase,any special reason for the purchase
ReplyDeleteHi dd, You're right, not a very common purchase lately, but in my opinion, it was a good time to take a small amount of SKT, and at the same time increase the portfolio's diversification.

Hello hawk, I very much like your blog - I would be keen on your opinion on currently beaten down stocks with high yields: Target, IBM, General Mills
ReplyDeleteHi HS and nice to hear, that you like my blog! I don't have any opinion about IBM and I'm not interested about it. I have both TGT and GIS in my holdings, both companies have had a few bad quarters in recent years and the expectations of the future are also quite low. However, I believe that both are able to reverse the direction, and also in the future to pay increasing dividends. At this point I do not plan to add TGT, but GIS's share in the portfolio is so small that I can increase it.

Thanks, agree, GIS is tempting at current valuation but market is sensible as even Hormel illustrates. Target is just cheap, might add it as well - no position currently.
ReplyDeleteI must admit that I wasn't familiar with SKT before this post. But, it sounds like you have very good reasons for purchasing the stock and it seems like a safe bet for your portfolio. You can't argue with a 24-year streak of dividend increases.
