Sharebuilder Weekly Purchases- JNJ, EMR



Reporting my weekly buys that went though this past week.

This weeks purchases 9/22 (Dow 16,330)
  • $200 of JNJ at $92.20. Yield 3.25%.
  • $200 OF EMR at $44.63. Yield 4.21%.
  $400 of new capital invested and adding $14.94 to my annual dividend income.

Note: I am in the house of pain with my energy and industrial holdings! $hit show!  I will keep adding and popping antacid as I do.

On radar for next week: holding nose with CAT at $65. More nose holding with ugly energy names-hello KMI at $29. Welcome to the dance with ABBV at $56.

  1. Arguably there's some death in energy. Oil fuels those fighter jets, and it all puts a toll on nature. Just sayin'. And I really think energy will come around. Industrials too for that matter.

    1. Anon, yes, energy and industrials will come back. Probaly quicker with energy with the ever new developing disaster in the middle east. As for fighter jets, I am long LMT and close to a double bagger.

      cheers and thanks for the comment!

  2. Nice buys, we love JNJ and own some shares in our Family's Dividend Stocks Portfolio. But EMR has sure received a lot of attention among DGI community lately. DivHit, FabSavings, Dividend Diplomats, and our family made purchases in EMR this past week!

    Keep up the good work, way to add another roughly $15 to the forward dividends! AFFJ

    1. Thanks AFFJ. Like the recent KMI buy and added a little this past week! JNJ is a core stalwart! Should be in every investors portfolio.

  3. Two great stocks to be averaging down on in a sharebuilder purchase strategy. The prices of both stocks are attractive now.

    1. Cant go wrong with adding to JNJ. EMR is trading below my initial buys back in beginning of 2012. Add when they are on sale!

  4. All I can tell you about a house of pain is that I started my portfolio back in 2007 and you can imagine what it looked like by the time 2009 rolled in. I was deeeeeeeep in the red in every single holding I had. I'd say I was down between 20% - 50% on every single stock. It wasn't pretty but I believed in the companies in my portfolio and knew that better days would come ahead. Look at at my portfolio today, even with the swoon of August and September. CAT is still CAT, JNJ is still JNJ, EMR is still EMR. These businesses go in cycles. The time to buy is when others are selling especially if the business itself is fundamentally the same. I'm not saying that Kodak is coming back, that was a flawed business, but CAT, EMR, XOM and the like will most likely rebound in the coming years. Nice buys... I just added to my EMR too.

    1. DivHut, I hear you about the house of pain. Take a look back at some of my posts from 2007-2010. Times that test the toughest stomach- I did not sell and added. Experience is the best teacher and that time period made me an investor with an iron stomach. A better investor. A crocodile. A contrarian. Keep buying those unloved names. The crocodiles are.
