April 2023 Newsletter

I recently published the April edition of my DivGro 2.0 newsletter. You'll need to sign up to read it, but all current content will be free until I formally launch DivGro 2.0. 

In this edition, I review my DivGro portfolio as of 31 March 2023 and present several top 10 lists of Dividend Radar stocks.

In March, seven DivGro stocks announced dividend increases and one Closed-End Fund announced another distribution cut. I added shares to one of my holdings in the Utilities sector. The net result of these changes is that DivGro's projected annual dividend income increased by about 0.5% in March to $46,576. Year over year, PADI increased by 9.5%.

10 Dividend Growth Stocks For April 2023

In the April edition of my monthly series, 10 Dividend Growth Stocks, I rank a selection of Dividend Radar stocks that are undervalued and have high 5-year compound annual growth rates.

I rank stocks by sorting them in descending order by quality score and using tie-breaking metrics where necessary. My quality scoring system employs widely used quality indicators from independent sources to assess the quality of dividend growth stocks.

Like last month, readers of my DivGro 2.0 site get an additional 10 tickers to consider, those passing my April screens and ranked 11-20.

10 Dividend Growth Stocks For March 2023

Welcome to the March edition of my monthly series of 10 Dividend Growth Stocks. In this series, I rank a selection of Dividend Radar stocks and present the ten top-ranked stocks for further research and possible investment. 

This month I decided to rank Dividend Radar stocks with qualifying Chowder Numbers based on the Chowder Rule of dividend growth investing. Such stocks are likely to deliver annualized returns of at least 8%. I also included a valuation screen, looking for dividend growth stocks with a forward yield exceeding its 5-year average yield.

March 2023 Newsletter

I recently published the March edition of my DivGro 2.0 newsletter. You'll need to sign up to read, but all current content will be free until I formally launch DivGro 2.0 on 1 May 2023. 

In this edition, I review my DivGro portfolio as of 28 February 2023 and present several top 10 lists of Dividend Radar stocks.

In February, I added shares to three existing positions, reduced one position, and closed two positions. Thirteen DivGro stocks announced dividend increases in February, and two stocks paid higher dividends due to exchange rate fluctuations. Another stock executed at a 3-for-2 stock and announced a small dividend increase on a split-adjusted basis. One of my holdings announced a significant dividend cut.

As a result of these transactions, DivGro's projected monthly dividend income decreased by $4 to $3,864, but that's a year-over-year increase of 15.3%.
