My stocks portfolio still got hurt today, but today, I only experimented with a loss of -0.077%. With a TSX that closed at the day with 19,611.56 points, my non-registered portfolio closed the day at $141,896.93, my US portfolio at $4,491.52, my RRSP portfolio - stocks-only - at $62,973.52, and my TFSA portfolio at $116,635.52. I am getting ready to place my next investment. I decided to invest in BCE Inc. (BCE) because its stock is cheap and its dividend is too good to be ignored. However, following this, I will try to ignore BCE - and Telus - and invest in other sectors.
The best thing is that with this upcoming investment in BCE is that my monthly dividend income coming from my non-registered and TFSA portfolio only - will be close to $800. My belief is that the BCE dividend is reliable, as much as the big banks. Next, I may tempt myself to invest a bit in BNS.
I think the new "usual" for the TSX remains in those 19,000 points for the present time. It doesn't really bother me. And I really wish it will remain the same for the next couple of months because I am really looking to beef up my dividend income. If I could reach a $1,000 monthly coming from my non-registered and TFSA portfolios, that would be quite nice. Imagine having an extra 1k to invest every month... We'll see when we can make that happen.
