Thanks to Quebecor Inc. (QBR.B), my annual dividend income is now exceeding $10,900!

Yesterday had been a long day, but it must have been an awful one for Ukrainians. I didn't know, but we do have a Ukrainian community in New Brunswick. They are obviously safe here, but many of them probably still have family in their home country. It's probably very difficult for them. On this first day of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, the TSX closed on a good 20,761.93 points. We are obviously below the so love 21,000 points. Under the circumstances, the TSX is going quite well. My non-registered portfolio closed yesterday session at $136,252.38, my US portfolio at $4,677.55, my RRSP portfolio - stocks only - at $65,192.89, and my TFSA portfolio at $126,771.07.

A stock of mine that I hold inside my RRSP portfolio, Quebecor Inc. (QBR.B), announced a dividend increase of 9%. It's now official, my annual dividend income is now slightly exceeding the mark of $10,900. Got to celebrate every little gain.

Lately, I had kept myself busy. We are still dealing with some cold weather in New Brunswick so I basically have nothing to do in my spare time. I don't go to the gym or anything, I am too scared of COVID. So I came along with a little challenge, which is to check every single stock of the TSX Venture over Stockopedia, in the hope to find a hidden gem. I am almost halfway done. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything exciting so far. The TSX Venture is literally an open ghetto for super sucker stocks! In my TSX Venture list of stocks, I have collected 1,950 stocks. Basically, I take each and every single of those 1,950 stock tickets and I search them in Stockopedia, in order to check on their StockRank - which is a special feature exclusive to Stockopedia, as well as their overall chart. If I see an overall chart that is perfection, a skyrocket just like the overall chart of Canadian National Railway Co (CNR) - then, I keep the ticket name. 

I did a ton of research of this type on Stockopedia, but the results for the TSX Venture are simply not there. It's just something fun to do, and maybe I will eventually get my hands on something satisfying. I can do this with the stocks included in the TSX Venture, but I couldn't perform this task for all the stocks included in the TSX because it would be just too many stocks to check on. And actually, Stockopedia kind of already separates the good stocks from the bad ones for me. Unfortunately, Stockopedia does not separate the stocks coming from the TSX Venture from the regular TSX. I cannot focus exclusively on stock coming from the TSX Venture while searching on Stockopedia, like for example on their screens, etc.

I have never been really interested specifically in the TSX Venture. I must admit that I don't really look into that index, like not at all actually. My sudden interest came from Canada's Top Public Venture Capitalist Contest. You can find more info and register right here. I have enrolled, and we'll see how it goes.

The contest concentres itself on the 50 most profitable stocks of the TSX Venture - and not all of the stocks included in the TSX Venture. That makes things easier in terms of preparation. Of course, you understand that I won't disclose now the stocks that I am planning to invest in. I will do that once the contest is closed. It will make an interesting post topic to share my experience with Canada's Top Public Venture Capitalist Contest.
