Dividend Growth Stocks

Money in the Trough – March Dividend Stock Purchases – 2022

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has rocked the market and added some huge volatility.  I’ve done what I can to buy during this downturn.  As they say, the best time to plant a tree was yesterday!

I keep a running log of every dividend stock I purchase which can be viewed in the dividend growth stock purchases section.

So far, I’ve put almost $12,500 to work with an average yield of 2.6%.  I’ve added a little over $320 of yearly forward dividend income this month!  The $ENB, $SO, $SBUX, $PFE & $F purchases were made via DRIP.

My dividend portfolio has been updated with these buys.

All additional purchases made this February will be posted on this page.  I aim to invest $2,500 – $4,000 every month.  However, in February I invested just a little over $16,000!

I'm a dividend growth investor who is aiming to retire early in 4 years at the age of 45. My goal is to live off the income my dividend portfolio and rental property produce exclusively and leave the corporate rat race. I hope you will join me in this journey!

  1. That’s a long list of buys for the month. I’m still considering MMM for a March buy. The stock has a pretty high current yield because of its price decline. I know they have their legal issues currently but I can see them getting over them eventually. Thanks for sharing.

      Hi DivHut! I’ve had to slap my itchy buy finger away from $MMM several times this week. $MMM already makes up almost 2% of my portfolio – I just don’t need anymore. I’m with you on their legal troubles… based on what I’ve read, they’ll be just fine. Thanks for dropping by!

  2. That’s a very long list of buys, so much deployed capital!

    With regards to MMM: if I had the capital at the moment, I wouldn’t hesitate to splurge, at all. The legal troubles are a bit concerning, but in the long-run they’ll be more than fine.
