Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH): a major turn on for investors

Following Donald Trump speech to the Congress, the TSX reaction was quite good. It didn't hit back to the old very luxurious 15 800 points, but still, a 15 608.5 points is quite nice to be on. My non-registered portfolio closed Friday session at $150 582.99 and my TFSA at $60 313.2, all quite good for me. Overall, my net worth is probably around 187-188k right now.

Its hard to believe, but I currently have $2 880.49 in cold fresh cash in my banking account. One of my secret goal for 2017 was, for once in many years, to leave some money in my banking account, and the amount set was money survival for 6 months, $1 250 (minus my dividend income), which make about $4 000. If I ever need to, I may be able to live on less than $1 250, but it will be tough rough life. 

By the end of March, I hope to have at least $4 000 in my banking account. And that will be it. It wasn't easy at first to see a few thousands being there doing nothing, but its all for a good cause - mine. Very awful to have so much put on the stock market, knowing that its the riskiest place to put any money, and have no cash hiding somewhere safe. This all come at the right time because my portfolio is "almost" a work of perfection. My latest investment, Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) came as a revelation and its probably among the best investment moves I have ever make in the past couple years, if not so far in my life. There's really investment that change life and ever since I had been in contact with TIH, I know it was it. 

Only time will tell if I am right but I am very confident and I have good hope for this investment. Starting April of this year, I would like to invest a couple thousands more in Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) just to satisfy my taste for self-satisfaction. And just to bring that self-satisfaction feeling to another level, I am the one that bring Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) to life on Internet. Go on Google, search for TIH on the Web and you'll see it for yourself: no one expect me to write about TIH, no so call financial bloggers, no so call journalists, no so call fund managers. Just no one. Just the so call Dividend Girl lol. But now you know at least the existence of TIH. According to the Globe and Mail, TIH shares have outperformed the S&P TSX by 29.83% during the last year. What a spectacular stock to hold in a portfolio, isn't?

So far, 2017 is a glamorous year for my dividend income. Canadian banks announced one after the other that they were increasing their dividend. Latest one was Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD). My latest dividend increased + the new stocks collected by DRIP made it easy to reach the 7k in dividend income. My annual dividend income is now at $7 007.86. Finally popping up the 7k mark. Investing more in TIH won't bring in a lot in term of dividend, but I am in for the capital gain on the long long run.

Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) just be ready to be on my side for years to come.

Donald Trump is rocking the Congress and Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is increasing its dividend distribution

Right now, the TSX is playing games with my heart. Just like if I didn't already eat enough dust. The stock market is not a place for little girls. I cannot make money if the TSX is not all high up. Its the way it is. Each time the TSX lose points, my 200k net worth is fading away. My non-registered portfolio is now down to $149 332.92. I have left $13 790.97 on my margin. Lower than 13k is a critical point. No worries, all my eyes are on him, just like if my margin would be a very nice looking Cuban man. So I am watching this very very closely. The only way to go through is to remember that one day in life, I was on top of everything. Right here.

While waiting for my great returns to come back, I am currently watching and listening to Donald Trump addressing the Congress. And so far, Donald Trump is making me proud. Its an interesting talked and he introduced the story of American citizens in his speech. His words are clear, make all good common sense. Its being said that Donald Trump finally found his voice and that this might be the best speech of his political career - so far. I didn't catch his wife in the audience - she had missed something.

Ivanka Trump is there wearing a pink dress, probably of her brand, sitting right next to a woman who lost her husband at war. I think Ivanka Trump husband is sitting at her left. Trump is giving the speech the US nation was is need of. Tomorrow, I am pretty sure that stock markets a little bit around the world probably going to go up, just like I need it to be so I can be successful and really beat it up one more time. I am getting too use to be on top of my game like most of the time and arrogance has become my new vice. So back off ok.

Recently, Royal Bank of Canada (RY) and Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce (CM) decided to increase their dividend. And now, BNS is following the dancers. Let's go, make me rich.

Saying hello to a $7 000 annual dividend income

The TSX was on it way to make me on top of my princess game - once again - and happily hit on the 16 000 points for the first time in history. But I guess it was just too much too soon. The TSX pulled off back and closed this past Friday session at 15 533.47 points. My non-registered portfolio closed at $149 466.72 and my TFSA at $60 382.61. At this time, I estimate my net worth to be around 187k. Still solid like a rock and beautiful as gold, or if you prefer, God.

The pot of gold is not on the $190 000 right now, however, its now official, my annual dividend income reached the 7k: $7 003.86. This exclude the dividend income coming from the RRSP. This is happening because my non-registered and TFSA portfolio are set up on DRIP. And also, fact that Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce (CM) and Royal Bank of Canada (RY) announced dividend increase recently also help my cause.

One of this past Friday top gainer on the TSX catch my attention: Colliers International Inc (CIGI). It will be difficult to ever beat up my last investment, Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH), but I like to seek for other investments. Even after finding TIH. And that being for many reasons. One of the reason is that ever since I had been investing in stocks, I always been searching for new stocks to invest in. It became something very usual overtime. But the more time pass by, the more difficult the task had become. Its also clear to me that the search for THE stock need to continue, rather it is on the US or Canadian market. The best that have the stock market cannot resume itself to what I already know. 

Too bad for the little Quebeckers. Fact that I am holding Toromont Industries Ltd in my non-registered and RRSP portfolio make me the greatest investor on earth. Its really that simple.

TSX can lose all the points it want, arrogance is here to remain.

Again this year, I won't invest in my RRSP portfolio

Actually, this is partly true. I contribute to my RRSP, but only at a very low level through my bi-weekly pay. I cannot simply rely on that for my retirement. But l like always, I learn a long time ago to take care of business myself. Especially since Jean-François Tardif seriously began to piss me off with his damn JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) just going no where. Nice man, good heart, good looking, but no fun profit! And no nice dividend! So when a man doesn't give me what I want, I stay away. Love you but bye bye bye Jean-François Tardif. I am going to get rich all by myself, just like it was expecting to be.

RRSP is good - but only if you are rich. Like real rich. Personally, I don't like RRSP and I really regret having invested in RRSP when I was "younger". Why? Well, if I would had made those investments inside a non-registered account, I could touched the dividend money. Currently, my dividend income is of $6 995.66 (non-registered and TFSA portfolio dividend). Now, imagine what could be that income if my RRSP stocks would be invested inside my non-registered portfolio. Like so frustrating! I don't care of what my needs will be when I will be old and gray. I want to have all the cash possible and ENJOY it NOW. Tomorrow is another day that I don't necessarily care about.

You are reading the Dividend Girl Blog, its not here that you'll read about seriously good stock review. My investing style is one of a voodoo princess. It watch catch my attention and my choices are base mostly on impressions and feelings. And of course, I check if the chart is all the way up, if the stock exceed the value of the before 2008 stock crash, the dividend yield is not too excessive, a good stock history, mostly something that been around for a couple of years. I made mistakes among the way, my portfolio is not perfect. If you are getting tired of the voodoo method, there's other option. Stockopedia is quite interesting. And for real stock reviews, serious ones, Susan Brunner has what you need! Check out her latest post, quite interesting. After reading, you'll have all the buzz needed to save all the cash in the world to invest and make your way to thousands and thousands in net worth. Very dangerous post.

Getting ready for my first 200k net worth

When I saw Friday that my non-registered portfolio was popping up to the $152 000... I knew something special was going on. I was hoping to finally be sitting on the $190 000 net worth. So I update my portfolio as quickly as possible to find out and it when I discovered that I was so almost sitting on a 190k net worth.... almost. At $188 996.88, its now reality, the 190k net worth is just around the corner. If I can just make other great discoveries like my newest Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH), it won't be long - unless something catastrophic happen on the stock markets.

My feelings toward TIH is the same I got years ago when I invested in my precious Premium Brands Holdings Corporation (PBH). I invested about 5k in PBH years ago and today, on date of February 19, the investment worth more than $32 000. I would like to invest another 1 pr 2 thousands in TIH, sit on the investment like a sexy hen and wait for capital gain to come in. No more work is needed, just the right stock pick, that's all.  

So far, 2017 announced itself as being THE year for my first $200 000 net worth. It wasn't that long ago that I reached $100 000 in net worth. It was actually in January 2014. We'll see if I can make $100 000 every 3 years or so. 

I read somewhere that some illegal immigrates had reached out New Brunswick, only 3 for now. But even with 3, the Maine-New Brunswick border is only decorated by very small cities and I couldn't help thinking that policemen in New Brunswick might just don't know what to do if they catch illegal immigrates crossing the border. Its quite problematic, even if its only 3 immigrates. Where are they going to put these 3 people? We have enough to deal with in New Brunswick including poverty that is present. We are really not arm to welcome illegal immigrates. Like not at all. And I don't even feel compassion for those immigrates invading New Brunswick. Its just not their place to be. New Brunswick is a too poor province to welcome refugees. There's many people who are in great needs and we should not spend one single penny for those people. Rich or poor, I am against the principle and I find it totally disgusting.

The newest date to be remember: February 16, 2017

The TSX set a new record high today, closing the session at a very comfortable 15 864.17 points, and making me at the same time richer than I never been before. Its quite shocking to see the TSX battling up records like that bang bang bang. And beating up the mark of 15 800 points is quite something. Its actually unbelievable. Why is the TSX suddenly going all the way up like that? Anyway, as you know, I stop trying to understand it all a very long time ago. Someone very famous, very rich (and very old too!!) once said that you should only invest in stocks that you understand. I so don't agree with this line of thinking. Not at all.

Investing in stock can be quite intimidating, but nothing should stop anyone to invest in stocks. If I would had wait to actually understand the stock market, understand how the system work, what it is, understand the stocks I invest in, I still wouldn't be investing because its all too complicated stuff and the only thing I am into is making money. I don't  So once I kind of get the picture, I jumped it. No need to know anything, the only thing required is a great taste for danger, adventure, and of course, MONEY. Remember, its all about capitalism. I want a slice of the cake on my side when I sleep at night.

MONEY, MONEY, MONEY

:-)  

Right now everything is so on the high, but can the TSX jump back very sharply too? Oh yes it can! But I don't worry too much about that. Stock market around the world goes up and down all the time, that's what they do. But in the meantime, give me a break, I am richer than I ever been before and I suspect to be sitting on a net worth of $188 000. My non-registered portfolio is at its highest, sexy as ever, standing at a strong $151 968.72 and my TFSA portfolio is enjoying itself at $59 224.55.

What can be consider as one my major achievements of the past couple years, my latest investment in Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH), is not a joke. Since February 9, TIH had grow by 2.22% in my now famous non-registered portfolio. So far in 2017, I invested $2 668.20 inside my TFSA. Since I have contribution room left, I am thinking about taking my Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) stocks and proceed with a contribution in kind to my TFSA with TIH. 

Knowing that Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) gained 2.22% since only February 9 and especially knowing that TIH shares have outperformed the S&P TSX by 31.22% during the last year, proceeding with a contribution in kind on that stock is a very good move.

Why am I so smart?

Sunday, February 12, 2017

A date to remember: February 10, 2017

The TSX closed last Friday session by popping up the 15 700 points! February 10, 2017 was  an historical date. The TSX closed at its highest ever, at exactly 15 736.64 points. And during that time, my non-registered portfolio closed the session exceeding 150k. It look like the TSX could soon welcome the 16 000 points. 

A good TSX in shape always bring easy money for investors. I am curious to see how the market will react to Justin Trudeau little trip in Washington. So far, I am not very impress by the announcements made. Trump want to discuss about the place of women at work. I mean really? Its not like we are a third world country in Canada. Women have a place at work. There's nothing much that need to be debate in regard of that topic. I am a single woman at work and I mean, I don't think Canadian women suffer at work or are facing major discrimination. Anyway, that's a stupid topic to talk about when there's so much more that need to be cover. ???

Trump should think about building a wall to protect the USA-Canada border because right now, there's some illegal immigrant coming from the US that are entering Canada and ask for the refugee status. Those immigrants are taking time, energy and money out of our pockets. That is something that need to be address to Donald Trump. Its only his fault if those illegal are coming to Canada. And while they are here, they have to stay somewhere, eat 3 meals a day, need to get proper clothes, and, even worst, get medical cares. And who pay for those immigrants? 

My tax money goes for that.

Welcome in my RRSP and non-registered portfolio Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH)!

Its too bad, but I couldn't resist! I had to invest in Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) and I did. I am currently under the impression that TIH is THE HOT STOCK that was missing from my portfolio for too long now. Now, only now, my investment portfolio is a perfect, but certainly complex, piece of work. You have to look at it like a very big tree And I have the very strong feeling that I did what was for the best. Its true that every time I buy a stock, I am always confident about my move. But this time, its a different story. I am going to make a lot of money with this investment. Who live will see.

Fact is, Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) is not a well-known stock. Its a good thing that I find out about this stock because from now on, TIH is from my portfolio and in result, the world wild Web will get a taste of what real Canadian quality stocks is all about. I didn't find any reviews of Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) and no financial blogger - expect me because I am the very best of course - wrote about this stock or even mention it! Its a real shame.

On Stockopedia, Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) has now a StockRank of 91. Finally at least, TIH now appear in one single Stockopedia screen - at least. Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) is currently making its debut on the 52 Week High Momentum Screen. Great! Another fabulous that I hold, but this time in my TFSA portfolio, is in the same screen, its: Morguard North American Residential Real Estate Investment Trust (MRG.UN). So far, my capital gain on MRG.UN exceed the $200, and that capital gain doesn't include the dividend earned so far on the stock.

I was checking on my banking account and I currently almost have 2k in there. And I taught wow, looking good! Why I don't try to keep the money in there for once? I will try to keep as much money possible in there. Fresh fun cash have diamonds value. But during that time, I am getting fatter on my margin.

As you may doubt, I had invested in Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) inside my non-registered portfolio by using magic margin money. As for my RRSP investment in TIH - its a small investment made by using dividend left-over earned inside my RRSP.

GOOD JOB SUPER BABE.

(lol)

GO go goooooooo!
