JANUARY 2022 BUYS

A new year means one thing:  SHOPPING FOR SHARES.   

I'm always looking for a good deal in the market as well as getting shares of companies I already own and want to increase the return they pay.

Just takes some research.  I look for a few things when it comes to stock.

  • A low P/E ratio
  • A pattern of increasing the dividend
  • A payout ratio that allows room for growth.
  • Low debt
  • A track record of earnings growth

Studying good bargains in the stock market.  Get 'em started early!

 


For January, I had some spare cash to spend from a nice Christmas.  I could have gotten anything I wanted.  I wanted shares that pay me back forever.

A total of 19 of 17 companies purchases totalling a whopping $14,119.98.   It added $292.54 to my annual dividend income.  Not the biggest average yield (2.07%), but it has lots of room to grow.  

The biggest buy was starting a position in Penske Auto Group (PAG), a major player in selling new and used cars and trucks, mainly for commercial uses.  Perfect company to be invested in as companies look to overcome supply chain issues.

I also invested quite a bit in Apple (AAPL).  Yes, it has a low dividend, but it has LOTS of room to grow it.  It's part of my plan to buy as much in shares of a company as I spend at that company.   I wrote about it here:  Annual Spend = Share Buy.  Those on this years list is Costco, AT & T, Target, Starbucks, and Kroger.

Until next month,  check ya later!

  1. Picked up some SBUX too after their slip up earnings. I think longer term they'll be able to adjust to higher input costs. They have wiggle room. It is a high margin business.

    1. I agree. In the long run we will be happy to own it. Here in Seattle, the higher ups all rotate from amazon, Microsoft, and Starbucks.
