3 Stocks I'm Buying Right Now! (Ep. 6) #Best Education Page #Online Earning

 [Investor] So here we are, it is Friday at about 2:30 p.m.

close to the end of the trading day

and I invested another $5,000

into my M1 Finance dividend stock portfolio

and I added two brand new stocks to this portfolio,

I'm excited to share with you guys.

Now before we get into that,

a couple of quick things to mention,

first of all, this is just

for entertainment purposes only here, guys,

where I am documenting myself,

building a $100,000 dividend stock portfolio.

I am not a financial advisor

and this is not financial advice.

And you should always do your own due diligence

before you yourself invest in the stock market.

And the other thing I want to mention as well here

is if you are interested in learning more

about M1 Finance, the platform I use for investing,

I have a free training down in the description below

that walks you through step by step

how to sign up for this brokerage

and full transparency here, guys,

I am affiliated with M1 Finance,

so I may earn a small commission if you use my link.

That being said, guys, let's get into my portfolio,

do an update on the two new stocks, look at my holdings

and then briefly talk about a couple of changes

I have made going forward for this investment portfolio.

So first of all, one thing I want to show you guys here

is that we have started earning our first dividends

from this portfolio.

And even though it is a small amount of money,

it really is getting me excited,

because that is one of my favorite parts

about dividend investing

is that even when you are, in fact, in a bear market,

you are still able to earn dividends from your company,

which gives you new money to be invested

if you're reinvesting those dividends,

and it's a way for generating returns,

even when you are in a bear market.

So on March 10th, I earned a $24.87 dividend from IBM,

which was reinvested into the portfolio.

You can see that right here

that money went into National Grid stock

based on whatever I was low in,

and then I also earned two dividends today, $22.76 from 3M,

as well as $21.13 from Walgreens Boots Alliance.

So it's pretty exciting here to me

that basically in the last three days or so,

I've earned about $65 in dividends,

which is truly passive income

being reinvested into my portfolio.

Then on March 12th, I deposited an additional $5,000

into this account,

which was deployed today being March 13th.

And it went into three particular stocks here.

Number one, I increased my allocation to National Grid stock

just because that's a defensive plane,

and it's a stock I want to have more of in my portfolio

during this time of uncertainty.

And then I added two brand new stocks to this portfolio,

which we'll talk about very briefly here,

which are Boeing as well as Genuine Parts Company.

I'm sure we've all heard of Boeing before,

but GPC may be one that you're not familiar with,

but if you've ever heard of the NAPA Auto Parts,

that is the parent company that owns NAPA.

And so that was a new dividend aristocrat

I've added to my investment portfolio.

So if we look at my holdings tab here, guys,

you can see that there was a lot of red in my portfolio.

Obviously GE being the largest position here

is down the most, down 47.83%.

I've talked about General Electric all the time here

in the last couple of videos.

If you're not familiar with that position,

check back on my old videos.

This is a stock I bought back in 2017.

And I will apologize because I wasn't really thinking

when I transfer this into my portfolio,

because I had said earlier

I was building this portfolio from scratch,

and it was kind of unfair of me

to move this into this portfolio.

So that was a misstep on my part, I apologize, guys,

but all of the other investments is going to be new money

flowing into this portfolio, building this up,

there will be no more stocks transferred in.

IBM down 21.5%, down quite a bit in 3M around 22,

down 14% or so in Walgreens,

American Airlines down 23%, Dunkin Donuts down 12.3%,

National Grid down 10, and that's one of the reasons

why I like this stock in particular

is because it doesn't really move as much as the market

because this is a very defensive investment.

Delta Airlines down 16.5%, Microsoft down 10,

we are down 8% in Apple, down 3.7% in GPC,

which was purchased this morning,

and barely up anything in Boeing stock.

So overall, looking at my portfolio,

I am down $10,717.09, down 27%.

And looking at numbers like this guys,

it can begin to look scary.

And some people may be worried that they're making mistakes

if their portfolio looks like this,

and a lot of you may just think that I'm bad at investing

and I totally understand that and I respect your opinion,

but it does take a certain amount of courage

to plaster your losses all over social media and on YouTube.

But whether or not I'm making good moves

or bad moves in the market,

I like to be as transparent as possible with you guys.

That way you can learn from my successes

as well as my mistakes and anything in between.

So as far as myself, personally,

I'm focused on the five to 10 year outlook

for most of these companies, excluding the airlines,

like I said, I may not hold those that long.

But every other stock here,

I like for the next five to 10 years at minimum,

and I'm going to continue earning dividends

from these stocks,

which will allow me to get returns over time.

So I'm not so much focused on

what the price does in the short-term,

because based on all the news coming out about the virus,

nobody has any idea where the market is heading,

and it's kind of useless to try to guess or plan that,

and a lot of people are just sitting on the sidelines

waiting to get started with investing.

And while that is a good idea

to have some cash on the sidelines,

at a certain point, you have to say you know what,

I'm going to start diving in in dollar cost averaging.

Otherwise, you may find

that you're just sitting on the sidelines

and waiting and waiting to invest

and opportunities like this come and go.

I'm not saying the markets won't go lower,

they probably will.

But at a certain point, you just have to say,

all right, I'm gonna dive in

and I'm going to begin investing.

And if it goes down in the short-term,

you have a long-term outlook.

And I think this is not a time

where I would personally be involved

with unprofitable companies, or growth stocks,

but as far as blue chips and dividend aristocrats,

in my opinion I think this is a great buying opportunity

and that is why I am putting my money where my mouth is,

and dropping a lot of money into this portfolio.

Now, I did make one additional major change

to this portfolio aside from bumping up my allocation

in National Grid, which is now 20% of my portfolio.

What I also did is I bumped up

the amount of money I am depositing every single Monday.

So if you're familiar with the progress so far

of this portfolio,

I've been investing $500 per week on every Monday.

And what I decided to do

is I bumped that up to $2,500 per week.

So I will now be investing $10,000 per month

into my investment portfolio.

And I'm in a position where I am comfortable doing that.

And I could do that for many, many months going forward

and not be worried

about dumping too much money into the market.

And that is because I have a lot of idle cash

sitting on the sidelines.

So going forward, I'm probably gonna have less

of that lump sum investing,

unless I see particular opportunities I want to dive into

and I'll be doing more of $1 cost averaging like I was,

but just with a larger amount going in each and every week.

Now, just before jumping on and recording this video,

I also just found out that my home state New York

is now the number one state in the US for the virus

but to be honest with you guys,

I'm just following the basic guidelines we've had

of washing your hands, don't touch your face.

And take practice with not being out in public as much

and social distancing measures.

I'm not very concerned about myself as a healthy adult.

But it is kind of wild to be in New York

at this point in time, all of the stores are pretty barren,

no toilet paper to be found anywhere.

But in the long-term, guys,

I don't think this is going to be something

that we're going to be talking about

one to two years down the road,

or maybe even by fall, it could be old news, for sure.

But that being said, guys, let's briefly jump

into the two new additions to my portfolio

and talk about those particular stocks.

So Boeing is a stock I have been waiting to buy since 2017.

And in a second here, we'll look at the price chart,

and I'll show you why I waited until now

to begin purchasing this stock.

I think it's a great company to own

and it's one I've been watching for a very long time,

and it recently went into a absolute nosedive,

which we'll take a look at right now.

So over the last five days alone, Boeing dropped 35.42%.

Over the last month, they're down 54.83%.

And if we look at the five year chart here,

you'll see what has gone on with this company.

They're approaching what may be their five year low

if they continue going down

to somewhere around 108 per share.

But this is a stock that was just trading like crazy,

it was a stock that rarely ever went on sale.

We did catch a small sale there in early 2019.

But again, not that much

because it was still trading in the $300 per share range.

So now seeing Boeing at 169.50 per share,

this to me is a stock I want to dive into headfirst.

And there's a couple of reasons

why I like Boeing as an investment.

So first of all, over 600 different companies

supply parts to Boeing.

And they're also one of the largest independent contractors

for the US government.

And in 2017, I believe it was $22 billion,

is how much money the government spent with Boeing

out of their defense spending budget.

So in terms of companies likely to be bailed out

by the US government,

I would personally put this very high on my list

because of the relationship Boeing has

with the US government.

They're very essential to ongoing operations

and defense spending.

So I think that it's very likely

that it would be bailed out in a worst case scenario.

And also, because of the number of companies

that supply parts to them,

the fallout if this company were to fail

would be absolutely massive.

So the reasons for Boeing stock falling

should be pretty obvious.

First of all, we have the grounding of the 737 MAX aircraft,

which was over one year ago

after two of those airplanes crashed.

So they're sitting on inventory that can't be delivered

until the FAA allows these planes to fly here.

Second of all, because of the decline in demand

in the airline industry,

a lot of airlines are grounding aircrafts themselves

and this is going to affect the number of planes

they are ordering in the near future.

Boeing operates on a backlog and it's a pretty sure bet

that that backlog is going to shrink

as the airlines have to cut down on their spending.

One of the first things they're going to do

is stopping ordering of new aircrafts

that are going to be delivered at a future date.

Then we had JP Morgan downgrade this stock

from a 370 price target to a 210 price target.

And that essentially is what largely sparked this freefall,

not to mention the broad market was correcting.

And in my opinion, it went into a totally oversold condition

in a very short period of time.

This is a very high quality company

that people have been investing in for decades.

And based on what I'm seeing here, in my opinion,

I like the look of the stock

and so I added it to my investment portfolio.

Now in the short-term, probably gonna have to cut dividends,

probably gonna have to take some drastic measures.

But I think in the long-term, it's a tremendous stock to own

with a proven track record

and this price is very appealing to me.

So then we have this other company here

called Genuine Parts Company,

it's one that not many people are familiar with.

But a lot of people aren't familiar

with the automotive parts arm of this company,

which is NAPA Auto Parts.

So we'll talk more about this stock

when I do my formal portfolio update

at the end of the month.

But for now, I'll just go ahead

and read this description for you guys.

Genuine Part sells automotive parts,

56% of their sales in 2018,

industrial components, and business products.

The company sells vehicle parts

to commercial and retail customers

through over 9,400 stores worldwide,

most of which are independently owned.

Its industrial unit supplies bearings, power transmission,

industrial automation, hydraulic and pneumatic components

to maintenance, repair, and OEM clients.

Now this is what you call a defensive investment here

because what you're going to see

if we are in a recession and people aren't spending money,

one of the first things people will do

is stop buying new vehicles and as a result,

they're going to be maintaining their older vehicles

which would help NAPA for sure,

as more people are buying auto parts

or more garages are buying auto parts

while they fix vehicles.

They are a dividend aristocrat,

they are a lesser known name

and they currently pay a 4.03% dividend yield.

If we look at the stock over the last month,

it's basically fallen just as the market has down 19%.

And over the last five years,

it's pretty much just a stock

that oscillates back and forth

between couple of different price ranges here.

So it's kind of a boring investment.

It reminds me of AT&T,

where it just trades laterally and does very little.

But at times of uncertainty, these boring investments,

and these recession proof investments can be a wise choice

because boring is good during times of uncertainty,

so they're a new addition to my portfolio.

I'm excited to buy more shares

and earn that dividend yield

and earn that compound interest

through the reinvesting of dividends.

So going forward with this portfolio,

as I said, I'll be investing $2,500 per week,

10,000 per month, maybe more if I see opportunities

to add more money to my portfolio lump sum.

As far as stocks I'm purchasing,

I'm mainly going to focus on these dividend aristocrats,

which are companies that have grown their dividends

for 25 years or more consecutively,

and I now have three dividend aristocrats in my portfolio.

First of all, Walgreens Boots Alliance

has a 43-year dividend growth streak.

3M is another dividend aristocrat

with a 56-year dividend growth streak

and now Genuine Parts Company a third dividend aristocrat

with a 56-year dividend growth streak.

Now I was thinking next week that I might do a video

exclusively on dividend aristocrats

and if you guys want to see that video,

drop me a comment down below

just so I know if there's any interest in that.

I think this is a good time

to talk about dividend aristocrats

during times of uncertainty

when people are looking for safer,

more recession proof investments.

But anyways, guys, that's gonna wrap up this update.

I hope you enjoyed it.

Drop me a comment down below,

I will do my best to respond to each and every one.

As always the free training

and link to sign up for M1 is down below

if you want to support the channel and give back to me.

But thanks so much for watching guys

and I will see you in the next video.
