Sharebuilder Weekly Purchases- CAT, JNJ, PG

Reporting my weekly buys that went through today.

This weeks purchases 2/3 (Dow 17,666):
  • $200 of CAT  at $82.96. Yield 3.38%
  • $150 of JNJ at $101.44. Yield 2.76%
  • $150 of PG at $85.69. Yield 3% 
$500 of new capital invested and adding $15.40 to my annual dividend income.

Note: Today's buys went through on a big up day with the Dow closing up 305 points.  Oil led the way a closed at around $53 a barrell.  All the energy names were up pretty big.

First time adding to my JNJ and PG positions in quite a while.

  1. No worries. I think the market will drop more in a few days, so you will be buying a lot cheaper. Great purchases by the way.

    1. Martin,hard to predict where the market will go but I just try my best to continue to keep adding regardless in companies I feel offer decent value.

    1. Yup. Add when they are fairly valued and hold forever and let the compounding do its thing!

  4. Nice purchases. I have also been adding JNJ for a while now and would like to add more as price remains around $100 or less.

    1. Cant go wrong long-term adding JNJ here. If we get opportunity on 3% initial yield, start adding more aggressively!
