Today was the last trading day of the financial year 2011...

I just received some interesting dividend distribution:

Canadian National Railway Co (CNR): 9.75$

Davis + Henderson Corp (DH): 65.10$

Atlantic Power Corp (ATP): 21.94$

It’s looking good for the 7k in dividend income for 2011 that’s for sure.

On top of that, Corby Distilleries Limited (CDL.A) recently announced a special dividend of 1.85$ that will be paid on January 3. A 1.85$ is quite impressive! Because I am registered to a DRIP, I am going to get a good 9 extra stocks coming from the special dividend distribution. That’s quite some $$$. But that’s not all. Corby Distilleries Limited (CDL.A) increased its regular dividend from 0.14$ to 0.15$. Very impressive. I guess Derek Foster most regrets selling its CDL.A stocks now! I always enjoyed CDL.A. It’s a good reliable stock and the value it’s quite stable, the dividend is great too.

I am very curious to see if Sprott Inc. (SII) is going to have a special dividend for 2012. Sprott Inc. (SII) special dividend had been quite generous in 2011. Currently, Sprott Inc. 9SII) title had decreased in value, as well as the Sprott Physical Silver Trust UTS (PHS.U) and Sprott Physical Silver Trust ET (PSLV). Eric Sprott precious silver is not performing well at this time but remember, Eric Sprott said that silver is going to be the investment of the decade so we have the whole decade to catch up... LOL. Way to go Eric Sprott! Love u always no matter what. I got screw up with your Timminco (TIM) and now, I am having it hard with your silver. See what you have done to me. And your Sprott Canadian Equity Fund is not performing well either these days. Retirement? Eric Sprott, it’s time to shake up things like in the old days! GO BACK TO WORK ERIC SPROTT. GO BACK TO WORK LIKE RIGHT NOW. AND MAKE BE RICH OK?

Ok, so this is all pretty interesting isn’t? But that’s not all.

Prepared yourself, because there’s going to have MASSIVE inside trading for the very marvellous Just Energy Group Inc. (JE)!

Not that long ago, Just Energy Group Inc. (JE) announced that it will gradually buy some of its own stocks because according to Rebecca Macdonald and his fellow business partner Ken Hartwick, who’s by the way, very handsome AND he’s also from the board of directors of another company I hold, Atlantic Power Corp (ATP), the JE stock is undervalued. Currently, JE trades around 11$. Last year, when I was on a Just Energy Group Inc. (JE) real buzz (I wrote many many times about JE and it kind of got into the eyes of some fellow investors-bloggers), well Dividend Lover sent me a document coming from CIBC and it was saying about JE that my VERY precious JE was outperforming (whatever, some people really don’t know what they are talking about) AND.... watch out right here.... the target price for Just Energy Group Inc. (JE) was 17$ PER STOCK!

In the meantime, we got hit by the trouble in Europe, kind of a recession in the US, etc. etc. etc.

Because of external factors, Just Energy Group Inc. (JE) was not able to hit the 17$ per stock but one day, that day will come. And Rebecca MacDonald knows that as well. In result of their internal acquisition, Just Energy Group Inc. (JE) had decided to cancel their dividend reinvestment plan. I am not very upset about it because this will allow me to keep a 69.75$ directly into my pocket. Rock on.

Today is the last trading day of 2011! Can you imagine?

And to celebrate, I really really wanted to invest in something. I did several searches, trying to find something that will catch my interest, but I didn’t find anything. I had a 600$ to play with. The 600$ will have to remain on the margin account at this time because I really didn’t find anything.

I am still through the same thing: it’s getting harder and harder to find interesting Canadian stocks to invest in. Because of my margin situation, I mostly invest in a non-registered broker account. Forget about TFSA. I have a bit of money in a TFSA broker account, it doesn’t count for the margin value.

It’s become more and more difficult to pick stocks for my portfolio, I had faced that difficulty before. At this point, i am at 7k in dividend or almost and I really want to extend the dividend to hit higher than just a 7k. Because a 7k is just a 7k. See what I mean?

Tonight, I am going out to our local casino located on a Malecite reserved. I need to win the jackpot. Something needs to happen.

I just watch at the news that the TSX loss 11.3% this year! I am happy with my result despite not being able to shine with extraordinary gains. But a girl does what she can do.

Wish me good luck, tonight is Casino night! 

Thank you and goodbye 2011 financial year.
