My net worth is now at $318,437.15 (on date of June 17, 2022)

I updated my investment portfolio this past Saturday, just to have an idea of where I was standing, among all that mess. I had just posted my latest Total asset history so far. Despite it all, my net worth is still in the $300,000. My net worth closed this past Friday session at exactly $318,437.15. Today, my stock portfolios gained $3,142.16, which brings my net worth to $321,579.31. It feels better to have my net worth in the $320,000, even if I am experiencing a loss of $39,863.11 compared to my highest net worth value, which was $361,442.42 not too long ago, on April 20 of this year.

I had a fun weekend, I did a bunch. It actually felt like I had spent a 3 days weekend, instead of 2. This past Saturday, they had installed a major circle sculpture in downtown Montreal. It was raining, but I went to see the installation anyway. This is what it looks like:

















Jean-François Tardif was at BNN this morning. For once, I was listening live. I am not really interested in the stocks proposed today, but it happens that my interest wakes up later on. It makes sense to stay away from the bank, knowing that interest rate increase will hurt homeowners, but it appears to be way just too logical for something of that nature to actually happen. What I mean is that I don't think the increased rate will hurt Canadian banks. It simply just cannot happen.

To buy or not to buy the dip, that is the question

These days, I try to listen to BNN as much as can to catch up with everything that is going on, but it's not always possible. Just to make things worst, I am extra busy at work, which slows down my ability to follow closely what's going on with my belove TSX. However, I had listened to some guests saying that they were not buying the dip, and they were more interested in other indicators, etc. Personally, I find it very stupid to hear some so-call financial personalities declaring that they are not buying the dip... First, we need to buy the dip to simulate the TSX and make her gain up some points. Secondly, remember, it's when stocks trade low that you need to buy them, not when they trade at their ultimate high!!!

Hearing not to buy the dip is for me extremely, very extremely annoying for me. Beefing up the TSX needs to be done as a collective effort. It's the ultimate act of pure patriotism and on top of that, it's a super-smart money move, but you need to invest in the right stocks. Forget about crypto.

Yesterday, I finish work late, and following what, a mega-storm hit Montreal with heavy rain. I had my Lisa Leblanc concert at 9 pm, which I went to, it was fun, but the place was quite very full with little place to shake my booty. I finally place myself against a wall because I was exhausted. And we all know what happen yesterday to the TSX... Yesterday, I taught: well at least we are still in 19,000 points... Little that I know that today, the TSX was going to slide down below the 19,000 points!!! The TSX closed today's session with 18,930.48 points, losing 73.68 points.

This is not fun, but I decided to take this to my advantage. Yesterday, I invested in a few BCE shares, ad I invested again in a couple of BCE shares again today. For that purchase, I had transferred a bit less than $2,000 to my non-registered portfolio. Yesterday, I still have a buying power of over $45,000 over my margin account, so I can say that my non-registered portfolio is handling the hit quite gracefully.

With my newest investment, my overall dividend income is in the $11,400, and from my non-registered and TFSA portfolios, I am now super close to the equivalent of $800 per month, which I am very excited about. To celebrate, I even took an appointment for a haircut... A girl is a girl, even if it's a Dividend girl one.

I think I will publish a portfolio update sometime this evening or this weekend because I want to get an overall picture of this shit. It's kind of a historical event, one big downturn, that I manage to survive, just like any other one. But this is badly special.

Yesterday at Lisa Leblanc's concert, the MTELUS theater was full of people and I wasn't wearing a mask. Let's just hope I won't get the COVID. Just to make things worst, I ate a slice of pizza on my way home because I just couldn't stand myself, so I ate up the COVID virus, if I catch it, it went in my stomach. I should had wear a mask, but it was quite hot in there with all those people. I didn't get any pictures or videos because it wasn't allowed, and I decided to be a good girl. I could see the employees of the theater reaching out to people who were taking pictures and videos, so I didn't want to create more difficulties for the staff. Overall, it was a fun night. I am not under the impression that I will get the COVID.

Dreaming of some BCE Inc. (BCE) stocks for my non-registered portfolio

My stocks portfolio still got hurt today, but today, I only experimented with a loss of -0.077%. With a TSX that closed at the day with 19,611.56 points, my non-registered portfolio closed the day at $141,896.93, my US portfolio at $4,491.52, my RRSP portfolio - stocks-only - at $62,973.52, and my TFSA portfolio at $116,635.52. I am getting ready to place my next investment. I decided to invest in BCE Inc. (BCE) because its stock is cheap and its dividend is too good to be ignored. However, following this, I will try to ignore BCE  - and Telus - and invest in other sectors. 

The best thing is that with this upcoming investment in BCE is that my monthly dividend income coming from my non-registered and TFSA portfolio only - will be close to $800. My belief is that the BCE dividend is reliable, as much as the big banks. Next, I may tempt myself to invest a bit in BNS. 

I think the new "usual" for the TSX remains in those 19,000 points for the present time. It doesn't really bother me. And I really wish it will remain the same for the next couple of months because I am really looking to beef up my dividend income. If I could reach a $1,000 monthly coming from my non-registered and TFSA portfolios, that would be quite nice. Imagine having an extra 1k to invest every month... We'll see when we can make that happen.

Welcome in my TFSA Telus Corp (T) and Verde Agritech Plc Ordinary Shares (NPK)

It's been another rough day for the TSX. My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $142,667.36, my US portfolio at $4,482.92, my RRSP stocks-only portfolio at $62 964,27, and my TFSA portfolio at $116,108.69. My "margin buying power" is in the $48,000 and my margin debt is in the 45k, so my numbers are under control. Right now, I estimate my net worth to be in the $338,000, which is not too bad. I was listening to BNN today and at one point one of their guests said that the TSX could undergo another -10% loss. If we are only talking about 10%, I am ready to accept that.

I had a bit of money left available coming from dividend distribution so I decided to invest in Telus Corp (T) and Verde Agritech Plc Ordinary Shares (NPK). I only made a tiny little investment in those. For security reasons, I no longer expose the number of shares that I purchase or that I hold from X or X investment, but be aware that whenever I announced a new stock investment, it doesn't necessarily mean that I invested a lot of money in the newcomer. My broker is National Bank Direct Brokerage and trusts me when I say, I truly take full advantage of my $0 commission fee advantage that I have with them.

I invested in T for the dividend, and I made an investment in NPK because I had my eyes on that stock since I read about that stock in an article written by Ben Hobson from Stockpedia. It's quite impressive fr me that a Brit actually knows that our belove TSX even existed and actually pays attention to what's going on in the best country in the world. I am actually really impressed. 

I just went over my budget, and oh surprise, I have a $1,700 available to invest in whatever I want. Obviously, that money will be invested in my non-registered portfolio, in an effort to help my margin survive the mess we are currently in. BCE stocks close the day in the $63 per stock and I find that to be quite a good deal! For now, I still have a bit of time left ahead to think about it since I am getting paid only on Friday and it takes something like 2 business days before my money can arrive in my margin account. I haven't checked on Stockopedia in a little while and the same thing with Susan Brunner blog, I haven't checked it out for a little while.

What I am looking for, is easy: a stock trading at a bargain price, that pays a sustainable and steady dividend.

How to handle your investment portfolio like a Dividend Girl during a major market correction

It's been a rough day for the TSX, but I haven't witnessed most of it. I took a moment to take a look at my stocks during the day, and that's when I notice the disaster. To that point, I knew it was going to be a bad day for my portfolio, and so I left it alone. I just had been too busy at work, which is strange because usually during the summer, things are a bit softer. These days, it feels like we are just out of touch with reality, and it's just a very weird feeling. I try not to pay too much attention because I don't want all that madness to consume me alive. But no worries, it won't because my days at work fly by and it's just so busy. It makes things much easier for me to deal with everything else. I am very grateful. I am celebrating my 10th anniversary at my job this year.

I feel it's always good to reflect on what's going on while dealing with whatever shit. In its case, it's market shit - which I am quite good at handling. And the reaction you should all have when the stock market is desperately trying to beat you on is not to give a damn. It's ok to look away if it's too hard for you to watch your portfolio value going down during a major downturn like this one. You don't need to hurt yourself mentally. It's ok not to acknowledge a situation if it can make you stronger. The stock market always win, this is just a very weird time we are living in. Unemployment in Canada is super low, but we are facing super high inflation and the Bank of Canada needs to increase interest rate, there's just no other way out. It's crazy, it doesn't make any sense at all, but that's just how it is. Under the circumstances, taking a step back, staying outside the chaos, and doing absolutely nothing is another great answer you can have while facing chaos. What you shouldn't do while facing a market correction like the one we experimented today is to sell your stocks. Don't push the sell button, unless you really need the money and you are in a case of desperate need. What you need to remember is that in the long run, the stock market always wins. For me, it's something I understand in my early days. I started investing shortly before the 2008 stock market crash. I wasn't that much scared because I strongly believe in my chances of recovery and I knew it was all working out. It's hard to have strong beliefs while facing the unknown, but you have to stick to your beliefs no matter what the noises you hear

We live in a capitalist world and in the end, the stock market always wins. That's the main idea I am looking forward to promoting this late evening.

The TSX closed below the 20,000 points, which is really not fun, but I don't mind. Usually, following a major downturn, the stock market gains a bit in points. Sometimes it won't. You just need to keep yourself ready to handle anything. Personally, I prefer to have a look at my investment value no matter what's going on. And the main reason behind this is that I have a margin debt. My margin debt is currently at $45,782.99. 

My non-registered portfolio closed today's session at $143,774.77, my US portfolio at $4,533.69, my RRSP portfolio stocks only at $63,841.22, and my TFSA portfolio at $115,223.37. I am a bit surprised by how low my TFSA portfolio is, but hey, it's no real surprise, knowing my exposure to Bitcoins ETFs. Now is a good time to invest in high-quality stocks that pay a nice dividend like BCE, T, TD, RY, CM, BAM.A, CGY, ENB.... Just try not to shit in your pants while ongoing the process and you should be just fine.

One very interesting thing: while the TSX was losing several hundred points and most stocks were losing value, JFT Strategies Fund Class A Units (JFS.UN) was gaining +0.83%... That's the main reason why I am keeping JFS.UN my investment portfolio, even if it doesn't pay dividends. It feels good to have at least a bit of stability somewhere... One of the weirdest thing ever being that I taught I see Jean-François Tardif downtown Montreal just a few days ago, driving a car, with his daughter next to him. She has long dark straight hair and doesn't look very old. 

And talking about Telus, If it happens that you live in the Montreal area, on June 16, at 9 pm, I will be partying my ass off and I will be drinking my shit away while listening to the Acadian singer Lisa Leblanc at MTELUS. If you want to join the disco "Acadian" party, feel free to join in because I will be there. Just be ready :-) I know it's a last-minute announcement but I just bought my ticket this evening. I will be there for real and chances are that I will be wearing a pink cap because I have no time to do my hair these days so just look for a girl with a pink hat and it will probably be me. If I am dancing, PLEASE DO TO DISTURB THE BITCH or I will hate you FOREVER. There's an invisible DO NOT DISTURB sign straight on my big ASS.

Thank you in advance. :-)

PARTY.
