Welcome again, Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) in my non-registered portfolio!

My non-registered portfolio closed this past Friday session at $171 515.28, but that's only because I invest in a few shares of Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS). The TSX had closed at its lowest level since November 2016, so I had to invest in a high-quality stock that would be push over the edge once the TSX decided to move back in the old 16 000 points. I am quite happy with the new investment in BNShappens because I purchased my new stocks at $69.14. My TFSA portfolio closed the session at $74 928.20, and my RRSP, stocks only, at $37 436.69.

BNS was among the first stocks I ever own, so it was just a natural move to invest once again in this one, especially now that it trades at a low price. I am looking forward to investing in other good quality stocks like BNS who are trading at a good price right now. I would like to invest again in Fortis Inc. (FTS). Fortis is also a stock that is from my non-registered portfolio since the early beginnings. I am looking for good quality stocks, reliable dividend and that are trading at a lower than usual price. Fortis Inc. (FTS) is a real easy stock to hold inside a portfolio. FTS is really reliable. And just recently, Fortis increased its dividend distribution. Another idea for investment on the low: Savaria Corporation (SIS). Other ideas: PLC, MX - but MX doesn't pay much in term of dividend. When you get hungry, hit on dividend stocks.

It's not pleasant to be on downslide market, but this is exactly how I started investing in stocks back in 2008 and its really how I had been able to create value over time. Its true that I am currently not at my best, but sooner or later, the TSX will be back in the 16 000 points and when it happen, this bitch will be back right on top, and just watch me hit on the not the 300k, but 400k net worth, ok? You need to pack the love at the right place.

This past Friday session, Aecon Group Inc. (ARE) gains over 11%, which is really good. I think that ARE may be on the right track for more great results. Fact is, there's alwyas great things going on for the TSX. Its your appreciation of the great TSX that will pay on your favor for the long run, and nothing else.

The TSX is under the 15 000 points

Its not fun to see the TSX going under the so valuable mark of 15 000 points. And its doing so for a mix of reason, economy going to well, pot stocks drooping in value, interest rate being hike in the US and now, in Canada... The economy is just going too well, and in result, central bank increase their interest rates, but markets don't like it. Its quite strange, I think the first time ever that I am going through a stock crash because the economy is doing too well. Anyway, it has bad consequences for the stock markets all around the world. Problems between US and China are not helping either.

Anyhow, for now, I am doing ok. My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $170 033.38, my TFSA portfolio at $75 295.72, and RRSP portfolio at $37 632.75. I had lost in value, but my dividend income remain the same. Got to focus on the bright side. I am still on profit with many of my stocks, and its the case of the vast majority of my stocks. If you are in for the long run, focus exactly on that, the long run. Its not the moment to sell any of your stocks. Its not pleasant to see your assets going down, but its part of the game.

2018 was supposed to be my year of glory, the year when I was going to hit on the $300 000 magic net worth. During that time, if you want to get a good laugh, CIBC is offering me a credit card transfer at 1% interest and BMO Mastercard wants to increase my credit limit and want me to proceed with a credit card transfer at 0%. I accept the offer of BMO to increase my credit card limit. BMO Bank of Montreal and CIBC (but I like CIBC anyway) are real gangsters who are trying to make more money on the back of your really precious Dividend Girl.

This is not a fun moment, but now is the perfect time to focus on your budget, see where you can save money, cut your spending and invest all that good money over the TSX to make sure my baby hit on back the 16 000 points. But let's begin with a 15 000 points please.

WesternOne Inc. (WEQ) is making a little comeback

Things are rough and tough on the TSX right now, and its pretty much the same thing for other stock markets across the world. Basically, things are getting too well, interest rate increase in the US, + many other things going on, and my baby TSX cannot handle it, but no worries,I am here and I will shake her up.

My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $174 244.91, my TFSA portfolio at $76 608.59, my RRSP portfolio at $38 123.22. WEQ recently makes some nice gains. WesternOne Inc. (WEQ) is about to be acquired by United Rentals of Canada. Its a good thing for WEQ shareholders like myself, it may lead to some more interesting gain, who knows.

Earlier this month, Fortis Inc. (FTS) announced an increase in its dividend distribution. And recently, it was the turned of TFI International Inc. (TFII) to increase its dividend. Following what, my dividend income is now at $8 660.09 (excluding RRSP distribution), which is quite nice.

We are expecting snow this Saturday in Montreal, so I decided to buy a new winter coat at La Baie. Any dividend penny is welcome.

Be a chart reader on Stockopedia and become an investor Godness like someone I know

My non-registered portfolio closed this past Friday session at $176 163.10, my TFSA portfolio at $77 024.34, and my RRSP - stocks only - at $38 093.44. Things are getting better. Its looking like Premium Brands Holdings Corporation (PBH) really want to reach back the $100 per share. A back to the $122 per share would even even better.

I double check my latest finding, Sylogist Ltd (SYZ), and I don't like the fact that it had reached the $20 per share several days ago. See for yourself:

I don't like this overall chart. Why? Its because SYZ still, on date of today, didn't catch up to the old +$20 it had reached in 2000.

Another good example of an overall chart that I don't like is Tecsys Inc. (TCS). We note exactly the same scenario here:

I am looking for stocks who has a perfect chart. An example of a perfect chart is Canadian National Railway Co (CNR):

CNR certainly represent THE perfect chart, all the way up, it exceed its 2008 value. What I am looking for is for stocks who are permanently sitting their best assets (not to say ass) on their highest value ever. Of course, those stocks are hard to find, but I always find new ones, like for example, Mainstreet Equity Corp. (MEQ):

This chart is "rockier" than CNR, but still, Mainstreet Equity Corp. (MEQ) has a lot to offer to investors. Its just too bad that MEQ doesn't pay any dividend.

With this simple strategy that consist at "reading" overall charts, you'll read chart like a fortune-teller read palms for your really own benefit. There's nothing complicated when it comes to investing in stocks. Of course, good past results don't mean that a stock will continue to have good results in the future, but please, tell me, what are the risks for Canadian National Railway Co (CNR) to worth next to nothing in the years to come? That risk is really low. 

A good lecture of an overall chart will tell you a lot about the personality of a stock. We had lived several crisis before, including the 2008 stock crash - which is the most symbolic one for me. A stock that is volatile will show a rocky stock. CNR is not what I will define as being a volatile stock.

While browsing on the different screens present in Stockopedia, its mainly what I do, looking at the overall chart of each and single stocks presnt in all of those screens.

All of Canadian weed stocks, including Aphria Inc. (AHP) that I hold inside my non-registered portfolio, all have really rocky volatile stocks. And as long I am concern, none of them pay dividend distribution. Pot stocks are too volatile and are far as being good investments like Canadian National Railway Co (CNR). I hold APH for now, but when I get the chance to sell out of shares, I will.

I am hunting for the exceptional, and that's always really hard to find, but I recently got lucky. I had found a really perfect stock: Cargojet Inc. (CJT):

Yes, this overall chart of Cargojet Inc. (CJT) is albsolutely PERFECT and that's why that this being is now in my investment portfolio. To make smart investment decision is quite simple and easy. No need to have any financial knowledge - I don't have any -, read the overall chart and make some killer findings. Now, the only question is, what are you waiting for? 

And let's not forget to cheer up the TSX before brushing your teeth for bedtime.

So go go go sexy darling. GOOOOOOOOooooo

:-)

And now: Sylogist Ltd (SYZ)

Premium Brands Holdings Corporation (PBH) is making interesting gain. PBH is getting closer and closer to the $100 share value. I am doing a bit of browsing on Stockopedia, and I found a few interesting things:

-InterRent Real Estate Investment (IIP.UN) - this one could be a nice replacement for Firm Capital Mortgage Investment Corporation (FC) that I recently sell inside my TFSA portfolio

-Mainstreet Equity (MEQ) - I mention this stock before and even with the recent "crisis" MEQ is going on strong

-Sylogist Ltd (SYZ) - this is quite a mysterious company in intellectual property. There's absolutely no info regarding the board or the management of this company in their Web site, which is really strange.

One thing for sure, James D. Wilson, the CEO of Sylogist Ltd (SYZ) is a discreet man - too discreet for my taste. I like to know who I am dealing with when I invest my money and if I cannot find a pic somewhere of that James D. Wilson - who actually may be the CEO of SYZ, I am not even sure!

SYZ has a nice chart, is decent in term of StockRank in Stockopedia and pay a decent dividend.

The only matter being: who's on board, and who's the CEO???

If those infos aren't explicit like they should be, its a problem.

Cargojet Inc. (CJT) is the perfect stock for the perfect Dividend Girl

The TSX didn't continue in its glory gains of yesterday, but my numbers are about the same as yesterday. It feel great to have my non-registered in the 175k. I will be up and running in no time, so I am drinking my glass of Martini in the hope of future gains. I actually bought my first bottle of Martini last weekend and I kind of like it. A like alcohol once in a while, but I am not into drugs or weed, even if today mark its first day of legacy in Canada.

I am really glad that I invested in Cargojet Inc. (CJT) inside my TFSA account because 2.73%. And just in case you are really curious, on how I find this killer stock, its not a secret, I wrote it before, I find CJT using Stockopedia screens. And sincerely, I wish that CJT take the place of my late Exchange Income Corporation (EIF) inside my TFSA portfolio. I felt the pressure to sell off EIF following Marc Cohodes evil games. And I never felt so devastated. Even today, EIF is not were it used to be. Just like Donald Trump, I suspect Marc Cohodes to have a tiny little penis. Very little and very delicate, useless as the man that he is.

Personally, I don't find that Stormy Daniels has a horseface. I actually find her quite pretty, but I wouldn't like to be in her shoes. Trump should look at his wife face, Melania has a real strange face, but Stormy has a perfect face. Would you like to see my face? Well, you won't ever see if, but in exchange of your fidelity, I give you everything, except me.

And sometimes, you don't even need a penis to be a good stock picker. You just need Stockopedia.

:-)

With Fortis Inc. (FTS), I get what I need: DIVIDEND $$$

Nice little jump for the TSX today. But one question remain: how long will it take for the TSX to go back to its old 16 500 points?

My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $175 168.29. My investment in TFI International Inc. (TFII) gain 1.79%, which confirm my good taste when it comes to stocks. I only fall for the really best. My TFSA portfolio closed today session at $77 358.86. Inside my TFSA portfolio, my investment in Cargojet Inc. (CJT) gains 1.39%. Let's go my girl. Its not anything soon that I am going to fail on the stock market. I am not ready to pay off my margin debt yet and its not anytime soon that I am going to stop investing in stock. Especially now, it feel like the real game is only beginning. I want my $300 000 net worth. My RRSP portfolio closed today session at $38 360.13. 

To make the story short, if you are looking for investments that will perform well on the long run and pay back in dividend, feel free to invest in my TFII and CJT, but don't go with mutual funds, and certainly don't go with an investment that is manage by a Quebecker, the JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) of Jean-François Tardif is an example of a bad investment manage by a so call professional who's only an investment fee sucker. You basically pay for a name that no longer has any notoriety. Jean-François Tardif has prove that he's nothing more than an incompetent Quebecker, and in Quebec, they are many like him, to fresh, arrogant, an incapable of getting good returns for their investors. You should definitively avoid any investment manage under a Quebecker. As for Quebec stocks, some worth it, but there again, don't invest too much in the same Quebec company and keep track safely. I own really good Quebec stocks, like TFII, SIS, LAS.A, but I manage and I manage and I manage. This mean that I keep track. I actually do something that Jean-François Tardif doesn't know how to do anymore: manage money for its profit. But don't ask too much for Quebeckers, its a province of losers.

I had been holding to Fortis Inc. (FTS) for a long time now inside my non-registered portfolio. When it come to investment, I take my duty seriously, I am all in to make money, and I try to hold to the best. And Fortis Inc. (FTS) is one of those investments, a must have. FTS always been a good loyal investment, its one of my rock, and that it probably won't change in the years to come. Best of all, FTS increase its dividend distribution on a regular basis. And today. Fortis Inc. announced a 5.9% increased of its dividend. 

With my recent portfolio changes, my annual dividend income (excluding RRSP) is now at $8 640.17. Not too bad. I don't really focus on my dividend income. Its much more important to hold to really good stocks that will fight and perform on the long run, rather than purchasing whatever stock that offer a too juicy dividend.

And for that reason, I find myself really really bright. I have sell my investment CHP.UN at profit and it was about time. Sell when you can, pray and eat breakfast.

And best of luck, because you'll need some.

The TSX is desperately trying to make some gains, at least for now

The stock market is a rough place to be, but it look like we had reached the lowest point in this crisis - at least I wish - and the TSX is desperately trying to gain some points. My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $172 388.33, my TFSA portfolio at $76 499.81, and my RRSP portfolio, stocks only, at $37 902.39, which is not too bad overall. Weed stocks are gaining in notoriety and it has good effect on my APH stocks. My non-registered portfolio may be on the 172k, but it have everything to be on the 190k mark.

Welcome in my investment portfolios TFI International Inc. (TFII) and Cargojet Inc. (CJT)!

I did a few investments move this past Friday. As you know, I was getting ready to sell all of my NTR shares, but I changed my mind. Instead, I partly sell my NTR investment, I actually sold half of my shares. I decided to keep some NTR shares in because its involvement in the potash business, and no matter what I like or not NTR, it brings a nice diversification inside my portfolio. I am satisfied with this move. Following my sell of a few NTR shares, I decided to move forward with a new investment. I decided to invest in TFI International Inc. (TFII) inside my non-registered portfolio. I had TFII in my radar for a little while now and I am pleased with this new investment. 

One day, I know I will pay off my margin, but right now, there's just too much I want to do with mu TSX baby. Its like junkie who had to deal with its drug addiction. He promised that tomorrow, he won't consume, but guess what... I am exactly in the same boat, at the exception that I hope that my addiction will conduct to a healthier financial situation. My addiction is my stocks and the TSX is the place of all of my obsessions. Because it seems that it hold to everything that I want. I want the best Canadian businesses to be alive in well in my investment portfolio, and served my personal interests.

I proceed with some changes inside my TFSA portfolio as well. I decided to sell my investments in Choice Properties Real Estate Investment Trust (CHP.UN) and Firm Capital Mortgage Investment Corporation (FC). Those two were not gaining much in capital gains. I now preferred to invest in quality stocks and I don't mind if they pay less in term of dividend. Following the sell of CHP.UN and FC, I decided to invest in another stock that was in my radar: Cargojet Inc. (CJT).

For now, I still hold to all of my oil stocks: Enbridge Income Fund Holdings Inc. (ENF), Enbridge Inc. (ENB), Parkland Fuel Corp (PKI) and Pembina Pipeline Corporation (PPL). This past Friday, Parkland Fuel Corp (PKI) closed the session at $45.96, its highest value for the past 52 weeks.

Another interesting stock that reach its 52 weeks high is: MTY Food Group Inc. (MTY). Derek Foster hold to Restaurant Brands International Inc. (QSR) in his portfolio, but personnaly, I prefer MTY. Could MTY be part of my portfolio one day? The answer is: YES!

It makes me happy to invest in new stocks. With my new investments, I had helped the TSX to gain 97.16 points this past Friday. Go go go! The TSX is need of a lot of love and encouragement right now. I am willing to provide all that to her.

Getting ready to say goodbye to Nutrien Ltd. (NTR)

Another really difficult day for the TSX, as well as for the American markets. My non-registered portfolio close the day at $171 345.34, my TFSA portfolio at $76 123.63, and my RRSP portfolio, stocks only, at $37 643.49. Its a tough situation, but hard times are always the best time to have a good hard look at yourself.... In my case, I am sitting my pretty assets on a big fat margin of over $98 000. That's borrowed money that I don't own. And owning a big fat margin is quite dangerous these days. Fact is, we could be in for more difficult days to come. 

In the old days, I just adore my Agrium stocks, I made a great deal of money when Nutrien Ltd. (NTR) was Agrium. I am currently on a little capital gain on NTR and I find that this is just the really perfect time to sell NTR and pay down my margin. I am also looking forward to sell a few other stocks of my non-registered portfolio: Saputo Inc. (SAP), and BCE Inc. (BCE). This will help to reduce my margin and I really have no problem with selling those 3 stocks.

Now, selling stocks inside a TFSA portfolio is quite nice because while doing so, you won't pay tax on the capital gain. Inside my TFSA, I have a few stocks which are in good position, with a capital gain: BMO, CHP.UN, FC, NA, NWC and CM. I don't really care about those stocks and I am thinking about selling them inside my TFSA, and after transferred the cash to my margin, to pay it off. 

All together, the sell of those assets will hep to bring down my margin to $75 000, which is more better. I could even push it harder. In my investment life, I had invested in oil only because Derek Foster, in his early days, was holding to PPL, and ENF, and ENB. I am not that a fan of oil and I find it quite horrible for me to be an oil investor. Like if I would be a piece of shit or something even worst. The only problem is that I had recorded so far a lot of $$$ in term of capital gain on those stocks. So if I sell them, I will pay taxes on the capital gain, because I hold PPL, ENF and ENB in my non-registered portfolio.

I am still thinking, but its certainly clear for me that I am going to sell NTR tomorrow, and SAP, and BCE.
