For the first time of my life, saying hello to a $180 000 net worth. It was about time

For the past days, the TSX push it very hard trying to please investors. In result, the baby is just about to pump it up to the 15 000 points! And in result, my portfolio is just showing off. Its shining all over the place, you cannot miss it. I was looking forward for the moment that my net worth would reach out the $180 000. Now, its thing done. I was hoping to get there by the end of the year - but it certainly happen sooner than expected! I couldn't be happier, but I would like to hold more US stocks in my portfolio. I would like to get around safe US bet like Bank of America and Johnson & Johnson Inc. At the present time, I don't have my eyes on any new Canadian stock to invest in. I think I am holding on to the best that Canada can offer me at this time. Its a good thing because I need a little break from investing and the usual. And strangely, I am mostly satisfy with the portfolio that I have right now. That is something that happen only once in a while for me. The sense of satisfaction over a portfolio, you don't get to feel that too often. It only happen in case of rare exceptional events. And my event of the time is, you must had understood, that I reached the 180k net work. Come my way sexy money cash!! :-)
 
Something else that I wanted really badly other than a 180k net worth was the equivalent of a dividend income of $600 per month. Tadam, that is now done too! My annual projected dividend income is currently of $7 284.50 or $607.04 per month. Its been hard to reach that point without getting tramp in stock that pay a too high dividend income for my taste of the moment. Building a passive dividend income is the work of a lifetime.

It seem like I reached a breaking point in my very dirty money dreams. You cannot be a Saint and invest in stock. It take someone very angry AND hungry for much more than what life decided to throw at you. Existence is a big injustice, but it doesn't matter for the stock market place because what its all about if money, profit, dividend. The market being what it is, I may not stay at a net worth of 180k for a very long time, it could get lower a bit. But now that I reached 180k, its more of a natural move that it will get back to that value in the future in case the stock market start acting all agitated again like a pot head.

I didn't hold very long to my Eric Sprott new stock darling Royal Nickel Corp (RNX). I sold my RNX stocks, lost $150 in the process and reinvest in the majestically Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY). And I felt release. Eric Sprott shit is not working for me. Over the years, I develop the kind of love and hate feelings over him. Good thing that he's retired now. But see how the markets are addicted, the poor man just cannot stop trading his millions. I have the same disease, but on a much lower level. I saw it at the news on Radio-Canada, I saw the diamonds from my own eyes, SWY began to exploit its diamond mine located in the north of Quebec. The mine is good for a 15 years. Personally, I am looking to hold SWY long enough to make hundred of dollars on the stock. And once again, the sexy money cash will come to me in a fingers clap. I wouldn't recommend to buy and hold forever Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY). Anyway, I will let you know know when I sell my SWY stocks. Just be ready for a good buy-now-and-sell-later-in-a-couple-weeks-or-couple-months.

Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY) is going to make me happy.

My only sensible point of the moment is my margin. Its now at $82 218.54. But other than my credit card that is going to be paid next month, I don't have any debt at least, Its all concentrated in that fatty margin. When I will be selling SWY later on, the money will go to pay down my margin, that's for sure. I went up on a 80k+ margin usage before, but I was careful. My non-registered portfolio is strong enough to support it. I would like to reduced it to 65k. Its the project for 2017. And if lucky, I may also be able to finally hit on the $200 000 net worth in 2017. Those would be the projects for the months ahead.

My debt situation on date of October 21, 2016

$82 218.54 at 4.25% = $3 494.29 in annual interest

Welcome in my non-registered portfolio Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce (CM) and Andrew Peller Limited (ADW.A)!

Look at the pretty thing. The TSX is getting ready to pop up to the 15 000 points. Be ready! When the TSX is on the high, everything is extra smooth extra easy. Can the TSX hit on the 15 000 points, stay there, and go higher?? Make me proud, I want a 200k net worth by the end of 2016. My non-registered portfolio closed the session at $149 689.08. Its probably official, my net worth may be happily pumping up at 178k.

Andrew Peller Limited (ADW.A) stocks split yesterday. I taught that maybe ADW.A was going to soar and gain again just even more in value - but it didn't. Anyhow, its not of a major problem. Andrew Peller is in my opinion a safe bet. ADW.A is a killer stock that anyone with common sense will be just very excited about. I now own some Andrew Peller Limited (ADW.A) stocks in both my non-registered and TFSA portfolio. Yeah! But let's not stop the fun here please.

Because I also sold like plan my Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. (ATD.B) stocks that were from my non-registered portfolio, and I bought Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce (CM) instead. And now, my dividend income is now at an annual $7 284.50. And that is like always excluding the dividend I earn inside my RRSP. I am doing quite ok.

Whenever my non-registered pop up at 150k, its going to be fun fun fun.

I am currently listening to the presidential debate on YouTube and I have to say, Donald Trump impress me, but will it be enough to win the race? Its hard to tell.

Sunday, October 16, 2016

My non-registered portfolio is now at... $146 071. WOW WOW WOW

To continue on the same topic as the previous post, I don't like and I am not at all in favor of Hillary Clinton because she said that she wouldn't apologize regarding her email controversy, even if she admitted that it was a mistake. For me, that's another main reason why I wouldn't vote for her if I would be American. At least, Donald Trump apologize for his bad words. He's capable of saying sorry and is willing to apologize when needed. Its not the case with Hillary Clinton, who's extremely fresh and arrogant as always and is cannot simply apologize for her mistakes.


Big shame on Michelle and Barack Obama for actively doing campaign in favor of Clinton. And if you wonder what I thing about the women that came out saying that they had been sexually assault by Trump, I believe that some or all of it actually happen, even if Trump denied those actions. I believe he may sincerely not even remember because it seem like those aggression happen a long time ago - but it didn't excuse him. Those US elections are such a joke, but so important. Between Clinton and Trump, I believe Trump is a better choice.

While waiting for the US election in November, I am enjoying a $146 071 non-registered portfolio! Currently, I am suspecting my net worth to be of $176 807, certainly very close to the 177k. And excluding RRSP, my dividend income is now of $7 112. Good numbers, looking strong. I am quite happy with my portfolio. But I am just secretly thinking about selling the Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. (ATD.B) stocks that I hold inside my non-registered portfolio and reinvest the money in Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce (CM). That way, my dividend income would be of $7 226.72 - annually of course. It begin to become an appreciable amount of money.

I had a balance left of $1 491.52 on my credit line that I will get paid off on Monday. Great news, but I also have a credit card balance of $1 453.87 to pay off in November... Its just very hard to keep my expenses low. The expenses rack up partly because I was in New Brunswick last week. I am far away from respecting my very tight budget - I am a big cheater on that one.

On why I like Donald Trump and why you should too

I had a quiet and easy time at work during the summer. I almost always finished my days at 5 pm, I could take an hour lunch and all of my breaks. Life was easy, without any stress. But since autumn kick off, its like in the old days, I am missing time again to do everything. Anyhow, if I have to work extra hours, its too bad, but I declared the hours and they really need to be paid off. If not, I will be more than happy to kiss goodbye and hit on anything else. In the meantime, money is great and allow me to do everything I want, from clothes to makeup, to trip to New Brunswick to investments. 

I have a very hard time trying to follow up with Donald Trump. I listen to the second debate Trump-Clinton from New Brunswick and I have to say, despite having a real hunger for young women **yack**, I must admit, I am more in favor of Donald Trump than Hillary Clinton. Just like her husband, Hillary is very superficial. I just cannot feel her properly as a person. I don't know what she's made of. She appears to me to be like an actress. What did she actually did during her 30 years in public service? If you want my opinion, nothing extraordinary. Hillary Clinton want to please. She does what she needs to do, but without making any waves. On the other hand, I know what Donald Trump is made of. He's full of shit and know it for sure, say what he think without flafla and his willing to get the best for the only interest of the States, and not the world. That's what I understood from the second debate. I have strong impressions and I highly believe that Donald Trump will be the nest US President.

Its about time that someone come over to defend the interest of Americans - and only them. The US got into deep debt by trying to save the world. Fact is, no one can save the world. Defend your own interests US citizens, defend your businesses and jobs as hard as you can. Donald Trump is willing to do that. But not much Hillary Clinton. The US need an electroshock treatment. And you bet that Trump is the best choice to do that!

Donald Trump is vulgar, a bad ass, but the Clinton team is much worst. And I don't think that Donald Trump is a sexual predator. Maybe a pervert, but not a sexual predator. The Clinton did a lot more bad things than Trump when it come to women rights. Its not because Hillary Clinton is a woman that she's the best option for women voters. Hillary hunger for political power is so messy huge that she didn't divorce from Bill Clinton, even after knowing that he had been sexually active with many other women. He's a monster, lied in front of the whole US nation. And now, everyone in the US look sound like they forgot of it. What the hell??!!! Bill Clinton did his time, but like his wife who use her personal email and delete thousands of them, Bill Clinton should had been put in prison. Do we really want the Clinton to hit it on back at the White House? What kind of message that pass on?

Donald Trump deserved his chance.

Welcome in my non-registered portfolio Royal Nickel Corp (RNX): go go go!

A few vacation days are coming by my way, but I got a bad surprise. Usually, there's always a bus from Montreal hitting the Maritime in the late evening, its been like that forever, for at least the past 10 years. But that 's all change now. So instead of taking the bus like usual during the late evening, I now have to get up super super early in the morning and I am just scare to just not be able to wake up, even if I know that I will. And its super complicated. You need to give the date and time of departure AND your name.. Its been like that for a little while now. I mean, its like taking the plane, but in more boring. I need a private jet, that's what I need. Go Royal Nickel Corp (RNX) go!

Money is so desperately needed that I am willing to listen carefully to all sign of gold.

I guess you might figure it out all by yourself, but I had invested in Royal Nickel Corp (RNX), I couldn't resist. A little way back, I was interested in Whistler Blackcomb Holdings Inc. (WB), but I didn't invest in it. A couple months later, WB had been acquired by another company, and that make WB stocks gain in value. Ever since, I decided to always invest in stuff that interest me. I will no longer kill my instinct - will see what happen. Eric Sprott is not investing in Royal Nickel Corp (RNX) for no reason, its to make money. And I want money too, so I decided to invest in RNX, simple as that. This investment is more risky, but I am playing a small amount only. And this is how a nice young woman turn into... a greedy sexy trader warrior! lol

And check that out, as soon as I make money, I will sell out, I will go out of there. And while waiting, Sprott Inc. (SII) is going all the way down. Don't misunderstand me please, I don't like Eric Sprott, I don't like the man and his heritage, I only like his money. And look what he had done to me. Its better now that he trades under a no meaning company name 2176423 Ontario Ltd. Super idiot or super smart???

I am quite impress with EnCana Corporation (ECA) these days. At now $14.42 per share, ECA still trade far from where it had been a couple years ago, but its a good step forward, as I was just willing to give it up. I still hold it inside my RRSP portfolio.

SWY still keep wanting to push it to the top, so I hold for now.

Eric Sprott 2176423 Ontario Ltd spy company getting involved in RNC Minerals (RNX)

Its just really hard to believe that we're now in October. Since my family is away in New Brunswick, my cell phone is always on, just in case of emergencies. My mom call me this morning while I was sleeping like a marvelous princess to tell me... that Radio Radio was playing at Radio-Canada. So I get up, get dress, did my makeup, but imagine, I didn't get to see Radio Radio at all because tickets were needed... Too bad, but I came back with pictures with stars, autographs and excitement and with cool pictures of the decor of my favorite TV series, Unité 9.

I now only have left $1 481.35 as balance to be paid off on my credit line! I am just very happy to see it going down. Its a real pain to see that money wasted on debt payment rather than investing. It's probably going to be all paid off in November only because I am getting ready for a few vacation days.
 
My non-registered portfolio close lower this past Friday, I am now at $142 273.56. Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY) still up and closed at $1.17. I was reading a newspaper this weekend when the print name of Eric Sprott spot my eyes. And not for the good reason. Oh no, not Eric Sprott!!! Over the years, I mostly lost money by trying to follow Eric Sprott. In my case, timing was all wrong. I mostly lost money on Sprott Inc. (SII), in Sprott Physical Silver Trust UTS (PHS.U), Timminco (TIM) and Sprott Canadian Equity Fund. Eric Sprott may be retired, but he's still unfortunately involved in the market. This time, not under the name of Sprott Asset Management, but under a company number that you need to watch out for: 2176423 Ontario Ltd.

Eric Sprott own 10% of Royal Nickel Corp (RNX). Royal Nickel Corp (RNX) is soon going to change name to RNC Minerals, but ticket will remain the same. For now, RNX only worth $0.43 per share. Stockopedia StockRank for RNX is super low. For which reason Eric Sprott decided to invest that much in RNX and its certainly to make big bucks out of it. At $0.43 per share, RNX could be a good momentary trade, but don't hold to it for too long because when Sprott will sell, he won't be making any announcement and it will hurt the value of RNX. Previously this year, RNX hit on $0.63. And knowing that Sprott is in the game, its quite tempting to invest in RNX. If I do, I will get out very quickly. Remember that Eric Sprott is an unpredictable investor. Only a quick buy and sell should be consider. Maybe this time Eric Sprott worth be following.

Easy breathy profit with Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY)

I like this kind of weather we are having right now in Montreal. It allow me to wear all the makeup I l want without turning looking like a popsicle doll. And today was a good day for Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY) who suddenly... jumped at $1.20 per share for no obvious reason at all, if not for being maybe a future trading star, who can really know. I think SWY can go higher. So I am sticking to the plan for now. My non-registered closed behind the $143 000 mark, but not too far away. I am looking forward for a cool little jump just to make me happy for the weekend ok.

I am trying to pay off my little credit line debt as quickly as possible, but its not easy. This month, I went to the dentist, I bought new clothes, 2 pair of running shoes... But it was all needed stuff. The only thing I can do now is to be careful with my everyday expense. Starting tomorrow, I will only have a tiny little $1 537 to pay off on that infamous credit line. And trust me, following that, I will NEVER EVER again get back on debt. I will still be holding my margin debt. I want to bring it down to 65k, but basically after that, work is over. DONE. 

EnCana Corporation (ECA) gave a nice little push on the TSX today, but I will need a lot more to recover from my loses. I still hold to some ECA stocks inside my RRSP portfolio. Otherwise, nothing special, if not that I still have in my taste TFI,  JNJ and now especially Bank of America. Fact is, I think Clinton will win the elections in the US and bank stocks like America will gain capital gain. I won't be able to invest until November, and at that time, will know who will be the next President of the States.

In other words, right now, I need all the luck of the world. Things need to be working sharply.

Believe it or not, Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY) is the hot "s" stuff you want for your portfolio

Donald Trump sniffing syndrome during the debate two days ago took Internet by storm. Some pics I saw were hilarious. Like this one for example. Hard to laugh silently at work with this kind of insanity!!! Ahhh! Funny funny.

The TSX may had lost 60 points yesterday, but my non-registered portfolio decided not to bother and decided to hit on the $143 020.01 all by itself. A gain of $219.47 compare to last Friday value. It may look like no big deal, but try to make gain when the stock market is down. Today, my non-registered closed at $143 030.50.

The "Dividend Girl Effect" finally kick in for Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY)! SWY gain... 4 cents today. Its actually way much better than what it look like, because that fabulous 4 cents represent a 3.51% gain. Its looking good so far for Stornoway Diamond (SWY). But I need much more than just a $25 profit to become rich, but lets wait and see.

I had been holding Laurentian Bank of Canada (LB) for a little while now inside my TFSA. Now that LB announced the suppression of 300 jobs, LB shares are up. Its hard to say no to a 4.81% dividend yield. And when a big company like this ones cut in jobs, it stock only goes up up up. Cut in jobs, go ahead, and keep the money for INVESTORS please. No sympathy, especially for "something" that is nothing much than a Quebec institution after all. But a Quebec institution that I hold in MY portfolio. And that's making Laurentian Bank of Canada (LB) as precious as it is. Let it watch flushing more employees please, in a very fancy way. Shouldn't expect more coming from a Quebec bank. Its the only way that LB found its way out to grow and gain in exposure for its investor. Its really just a matter of bringing money to the rich, poor are getting flush and the CEO is getting paid millions. Happy sad world. I am just extremely release not to be a f Quebecker. Thank you.

My secret golden ticket for hot fresh money is Stornoway Diamond Corp (SWY)

I am currently watching the US Presidential Debate. Trump just said his first stupid thing: that Hillary had fight Muslim all of her adult life. What does that mean??? It was say out in the air and out of context. He kept pitching things like that and doesn't explain. I don't understand why Trump said that, I don't understand what he meant. Its the only major problem with Donald Trump, he's all over the place, talked too much and act like a big moron. Sometimes, he has a good speech, sometimes not. And sometimes, he can say the stupidest things ever. I don't like Hillary Clinton, but Trump could be dangerous. He's not the best choice in regard of Canadian interests or anyone interest, especially the US ones. Debates like this one are always really interesting. And it make you think that yeah, bitch like me are lucky to be Canadian! Not from Australia, USA, UK, France..... but from Canada with love. PROUDLY CANADIAN. There you go. Being American right now is just as worst as being a Quebecker for those who are. It might just suck.... so much....

BAD BAD GIRL.



And the TSX is the place to be and I am rocking it as always. Its like I am a queen in her marvelous castle. And back off! The stock market? Its all mine to play. And there's not much more that I like than buying and selling stocks, if its not getting a manicure once in a while. I was pleased to see my overall portfolio value at $253 012.57 this past weekend, but I would had preferred a higher jump. Its hard to make steady points. I know for sure that during the past week, I was certainly somewhere in the 255k. My net worth is now at $174 015.04. I am not missing much to hit on the 200k. And a 180k could be possible by the end of the year.

I hope that Stornoway Diamond (SWY) will help me on the way. SWY is a very interesting stock to hold. It doesn't pay any dividend income. I get in a couple days/weeks ago at $1.15. Since that time, it went up and down, but today at least, Stornoway Diamond (SWY) closed the session at $1.15, which is an encouraging sign. For now, SWY may look like just an ordinary penny stock but watch out, because SWY is expecting its first for January 2017 and they are going to sell sell sell diamonds like crazy. So be ready to get rich and get on the ride while you still can.

Strangely, Stornoway Diamond (SWY) is a Quebec stock. Go figure.

Saying goodbye to Kinross Gold Corp (K) and EnCana Corporation (ECA)

Spectacular news: Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are getting divorce. You can have all the money of the world, have 6 children in good health, be good looking, it doesn't stop people from getting divorce for whatever reason just like if they were just f nobody. Even with the millions of dollars, I wouldn't like to change of place. Its just going to be a very nasty divorce and life will become very complicated for those poor kids.

This being said, I had sold my Kinross Gold Corp (K) stocks, it result in a capital loss. I also sell off the EnCana Corporation (ECA) stocks that I was holding in my non-registered account. Both K and ECA were just going no where, it was time to sell, say goodbye and move on. Some money went down on the margin and some money was reinvested in Savaria Corporation (SIS). Excluding RRSP, my dividend income is probably of $7 100 now, which is good, but I am now only dreaming of a 8k dividend income. Its so so hard to get there, unbelievable.

As for my RRSP, I am thinking about seeling the stocks of EnCana Corporation (ECA) that I have in there and reinvest the money in Canadian Imperial Bank Of Commerce (CM). I was quite impressed by CM announcement today. I am curious to find out what their new partnerships with the National Australia Bank (NAB) will lead to.

After rough calculations, I think my net worth is now at $175 300. These days, I have all eyes on US stock. Facebook (for its research center announcement), Microsoft (for its dividend increase) and Johnson & Johnson (recent new acquisition) caught my attention. They could make good investments for the long term. I am not in a hurry to invest in those companies, as I am trying really hard to pay down my credit line debt. 

For now, the Fed didn't touch to the interest rate, but its being that in December, we could see an increase. And when it will happen, the markets worldwide could go down. There's a couple of things that the markets just hate and its bad news regarding Greece and the Euro, bad news regarding China or US economy. Its pretty much it. Markets don't like changes. When corrections happen, it help to be debt free and have a bit of money aside.

The hot sexy stock of the moment: Savaria Corporation (SIS)

With my most recent acquisitions, my annual dividend income is now at $7 072.54, not including RRSP. Its a good amount, but I am will only be impress when it reach the 10k. Fact that Savaria Corporation (SIS) increased its dividend distribution by 30% had helped giving a sweet push. I have a page for my dividend on this blog, but I didn't update it for a little while now. Mostly because earning dividend is now very usual, part of the routine. 

Savaria Corporation (SIS) have everything that a girl can dream of. Good increasing dividend and extra good capital gain. Inside my non-registered portfolio, SIS grow of 23%. This stock is so hot that it appears in one of the momentum investing screen of Stockopedia. Its nice to see a stock like SIS pomping up by 3.77% in one single day trading. I learn the word MOMENTUM on Stockopedia.
 
I had been lucky, my investment in Apple Inc. (AAPL) grow of 4.67% alone. A nice cute bounce, but I think Apple title can sky rocket higher than that, so hold tight like if you were holding a knife between your teeth to kill a wolf and watch out, because I know I am holding on tight.

I express my desire no to trade anymore for 2016 but with still 4 months left, I don't think it will be possible. I tried to impose a ban because I don't want to over trade and just keep investing and playing with margin money, but a bad bad bad girl remain once for life, nothing much can be done about it. I still have Transforce Inc. (TFI) in my radar and I want to sell Kinross Gold Corp (K), even if it bring in a capital loss. 

Other investment stories to come soon.

Apple Inc. (AAPL) on the road for big greasy profit

Apple Inc. (AAPL) is sky rocking despite the fact that markets are just very flat and boring. While Samsung Galaxy cell phones are exploding a bit everywhere in the world, Apple's iPhone is getting a fresh new push. Its been reported that iPhone ordered are currently at the highest demand it never been. Just wait for profit to... explode. And we didn't received any news for the Mac. Imagine the kind of profit it will make with both Mac and iPhone combine together. To help me kick off at the gym, I bought an Apple iPod shuffle today. Its tiny small, but the sound is very great, and it easy get grip on clothes, a top or bottom. A saw a Sony mp3 players, but the way it was design, I wasn't going able to move easily with it. My choice was based on design and Apple is a runner on that field.

These days, a stock alone like Apple Inc. (AAPL) is performing a 100% time better than my late JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN). And best of all, I don't have a hidden fee of 1.5% that is taking away on my back. And best of all, Apple pay a tiny, but still pay a dividend to its investor, while JFS.UN pay nothing at all. While investing in the fund, I wanted an exposure to Jean-François Tardif savoir faire. But I learn my lesson. Never expect too much with Quebeckers.

A couple of days ago, CGI Group Inc. (GIB.A) announced that their current CEO was retiring. That announcement had a negative effect on the stock price. And on date of today, GIB.A didn't recover yet. Today, its W. Galen Weston that announced his retirement. His son is taking over. Today big announcement for George Weston (WN) didn't negatively affect the stock price. I just wonder how Galen G. Weston is going to manage 3 big companies at the same time: Loblaw, Shoppers Drug Mart and now, George Weston. Go figure.

Open Text (OTC) seem to be the very perfect fit for my portfolio. I am quite surprise that AGU remain low, its like investors are not seeking the merger project the way they should or the way I perceived it.

Welcome in my non-registered portfolio Open Text (OTC)!

After the nicest summer of all, the month of September is getting super volatile crazy. Again today, the TSX lost more than 200 points. After being so close to the 15 000 points, we are rather getting closer to the 14 000 mark... It hit hard just like a wake up call. Just for a reminder that I may be a princess and even the queen, but the market has the final word on everything. And no super babe, you won't get your ass on a soft 200k net work anything soon, forget about it and go to f hell bitch! LOL.I guess we all have our little ways to deal with stressful situation. Myself, I especially like to burn myself to the gym until I cannot take it anymore or get very annoy by the exercise that I am doing. But I didn't went to the gym this evening. The gym is a lot more pack now, I was surprised when I went on Monday.

After a little while of this going on all the way down, the corrections are going to metamorphose into an in deep stock crash and its going to be difficult to move from there. If the interest rates going to get higher, its really going to be bad. And it scary! Investors don't like change.

I don't regret for a minute selling my JFT Strategies Fund (JFS.UN) units. Parkland Fuel Corporation (PKI) is just the perfect fit for my portfolio. Even with the loses registered today for the TSX, PKI continue popping up baby like nothing was happening out there. Some stocks I hold don't seem to be at all affected by corrections like this, which is very good, because it help keeping my financial shape out of the water.

I am curious to see how things will turn for Apple Inc. (AAPL). Apple gain 2.4% today, which is encouraging. At a point, I didn't know what to think too much, because the new iPhone doesn't seem like very ingenious. However, recent Samsung recall for their star phone is certainly playing in favor of Apple. There's an Apple Store located downtown Montreal, and there's always people there. And its amaze me. Apple stuff are so expensive, all those people have the money it need to pay for that kind of stuff. Its truly something I don't understand. Anyway, since my new investor buddy Warren Buffett is on Apple, no question to be ask, I am holding for now. I need big USA bucks please Mr. Buffett. Go go go!

See, I am doing the best I can to keep my spirit on the drive. Because if there's one thing that I hate in the world, its stock market corrections and crashes. I like my TSX when its on a smooth note. I like it when its simple and easy. Corrections or not, the stock market is the place to be, its just a matter of doing things in a way you feel comfortable. I place what I consider being one of my last purchase trade for 2016 today: Open Text (OTC). Yesterday, OTC announced the acquisition of a strong asset for their line of business. And I felt it was a good fir for my portfolio since I am not that much tech oriented in my portfolio. Its important for me to have the greatest and coolest business of Canada in my portfolio and what a girl want is what a girl get.

Welcome again in my non-registered portfolio Agrium Inc. (AGU)!

A lot is going on for the TSX right now! Its certainly the place to be for investors. Like expected, the TSX gain in a few points, but nothing to be over excited. We didn't gain back the 200+ points lost on this past Friday and this may be the sign of some rocky times ahead, even for my very darling TSX. Before this past Friday, I basically don't quite remember the last time we have a correction. We have a too nice summer and it all wash away all of my bad market memories.

Despite announcing common merger project to move forward, Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc. (POT) and Agrium Inc. (AGU) both closed lower today. We should all be happy for this upcoming merger for many reasons. POT shares holder will be the one who'll benefit the most - POT seem to be quite volatile. As for AGU share holders, we know the drill, AGU is an EXTREMELY profitable stock. POT is next to nothing is comparison. A merger of common forces is a very good thing, even if AGU appear to be stronger than POT. It keep 2 great Canadian companies on our ground, for the benefit of all. I support AGU and POT merger decision. The company new name haven't been released yet. And even more important, we don't know if the new company issue from the merger will be a dividend payer one. All details, but I am confident and excited. I cannot wait to learn more about the merger. Too little had been said so far.

Actually, I was so excited that today I bought some AGU stocks! Maybe they'll gain on later on, I don't know. I just wanted to be part of the game and have more exposure to AGU while the company still exist.

Don't let the stock markets beat you down

No, there will be no portfolio updates this weekend because I have no good gain to show off. I knew that was about to come sooner or later! While being on our way for a 15 000 points market, the TSX decided to act like a bitch again and lost 263.26 points in the wind this past Friday alone!!! More than 200 points lost always hit hard. I can tell you this: my non-registered portfolio closed at $138 201.46 and my TFSA $51 965.12. Now, its just a matter of knowing if the lowest level had been reach or not. Its something I am literally obsess with when the TSX market go down like this.

I can live with the fact that the markets are down, I had been through that many times since investing in stock of course. I always managed to survive and beat up those poor conditions. I actually bought a lot of my winners stock following the market crash of 2008. It could seem like an easy thing to invest when the markets are down, but its truly not. It take of somewhat of a sexy ass out of a control to do such thing because no one never know if the lowest point had been reached, or when it will be reach. And the eternal question remain: will the market will ever go up again? And what if in the process I lose all my money? 

It never occur to me that the markets would let me down for a really long time. And the markets always go up, no matter what. Its important to keep that in mind. In correction like this one, investors always seek for opportunities and I wouldn't be surprise if the market go up on Monday. We haven't been down in quite sometime. The stock markets being so volatile, there's always light showing up at the end of the dark hole. I always recover from market crash and corrections. Fact is, true investors will become stronger over time while battling corrections and stock market real ugly crashes. And its the case with your favorite Dividend Girl! It take a real life bitch to manage another one after all.

For my 4 broker accounts, US, non-registered, TFSA and RRSP, my past 3 years performance had been of 62.27%, which is an annualized 17.51%. Since inspections for 4 accounts, I am at 54.33%. I could had done better, I know what my mistakes are, but I could had done a lot worst too. But overall, I am happy with my performance. And I know I am only getting better. Its needed, you must focus on the past good things, give yourself a tap on the shoulders and move on while facing corrections. Fact is, the best is always to come, even if its hard to imagine. We live in a capitalist word, I had been watching the TSX going up and down for the past couple years and I must say, there's always rewards. Its the job of all individual to take and make the most of the capitalist. And its why I love capitalist. The market is open to everyone, anyone can trade, buy and sell stocks. Its just a matter to be in the game.

Its during desperate and the hardest times ever that we must show our faith in the fundamentals. The number one rule: buy low, sell high especially apply. Its not time to sell, it time to take a deep breath, and to hold and buy. This is way its a real good thing to have cash asset, to be able to invest when opportunities show up. And in this matter, I am not a good example because I just have no real cold cash reserve. Its unfortunate, but there's always that next paycheque coming on for now.

Parkland Fuel Corporation (PKI): a stock that know how to treat a lady investor

My latest stock investment was made in Parkland Fuel Corporation (PKI) inside my TFSA and for a reason that only concern God and all of the Saints, PKI decided to treat me like queen and gained 3.72%. Just like that, in your face sexy investors! Of course, when the TSX is on good shape, I am on top the world. I just want to continue enjoying the current market state. Because once it will be going all the way down again, my life will be miserable - just like every single time the market go downs. I don't want to hear a word regarding Brexit, Euro.... Europe need to deal with their problems in a very quiet matter.

My TFSA closed the session at $53 017.95 and my non-registered at $140 709.27. Its pretty good. I might be at a net worth of 173k right now. It just seem to all smoothly going to hit the 180k very soon, just like magic. But for that, I need a TSX in positive territory. Can the TSX possibly hit on the 15 000 points anytime soon? When it will does, I will let you know.

I have for believes that no investment portfolio can be absolutely perfect because there's just too much involve. Its a human being with hopes and fears that press the buy and sell button. I made very good investments in the past couple months, PKI, SIS, PLC, BRK.B, ADW.A, BYD.UN, KEG.UN, MSI... You cannot find better stocks anywhere else. 

I am very glamorous, however I carry on some investments that turn out to be some heavy dead stones. Among the way, I made some mistakes. And one of those mistakes was to invest in EnCana Corporation (ECA) inside my TFSA and non-registered account. In my non-registered account, I ECA had been bought at $28.78, and inside my RRSP, $31.09. I lost a lot of money in those 2 investments and I had been thinking lately about selling my ECA stocks, in both my non-registered and TFSA.

But is it a good time to sell EnCana Corporation (ECA) now?

 

This is EnCana Corporation chart since inspection, coming from the Globe and Mail. Today, I wouldn't invest a single penny in a stock that show such a chaotic chart, but unfortunately, those purchases in ECA had been made several years ago. 

However, the past 6 months had been good for ECA:


See, for the past couple months, EnCana Corporation (ECA) stocks value had gone all the way up.

And its the same thing for the past 5 days:


I am seeing encouraging signs and for now, I decided to let ECA be.

However, things are a bit uglier when it come to Just Energy Group Inc. (JE):


I bought my JE shares at $13.24. Just Energy closed today session at $7.24. So I basically lost half of my money on one stock alone. Chart since inspection is just chaotic. But does JE show any encouraging signs of recovery like the once show by ECA? NO.

For the past 6 months, JE went all the way down:

 

And for the past 3 months too:

 

For the past month, maybe we have hit a new time low:

 

For the past 5 days, it seem like JE is very trying hard to go up:

 

If I sell JE, its $436 in annual dividend that will be lost. Its something to think about. Lesson learn: junk stock that pay a too juicy dividend is to be avoid. Its like junk food, to be avoid.
