Many investors opt for investing in ETFs and index funds over individual stocks because its much easier and more often than not leads to better results. Investing in individual stocks gives you more control and lets you personalize your investing style. This is why I combined investing in individual stocks with the automation ETFs offer, using the 4 factor stock selection process. Join me to find out how this process works and whether or not it makes sense to you. I hope you enjoy!

In November of last year I launched my 4 factor dividend growth portfolio built on a modified SCHD stock selection process. The portfolio got off to a nice start, outpacing the S&P 500 by 7.66% in November. Since then the performance has cooled off a little but overall the dividend growth portfolio is very well. It is outperforming the S&P 500 index during the last 8 months and delivering better returns than I expected. It is a passive approach to stock selection and I'm optimistic it can deliver excellent long term results. I hope you enjoy the review.

I've made a few enhancements to the original SCHD and QQQ calculator that I shared with the community a week ago. In this calculator not only can you test a mock portfolio of SCHD and QQQ, you can include up to 5 different ETFs or individual stocks. I pre-populated the list of available ETFs to test with 21 popular dividend growth ETFs, a few technology ETFs and some high yield dividend ETFs. You can also easily add any ETF or individual stock that you want. I hope you like the spreadsheet and use it for motivation on your investing journey! Enjoy!

Not all of us start our investing journey at a young age. And most older people dwell on the fact that they may have missed the boat and dividend investing for financial independence is no longer in the cards for them. I beg to differ, today I want to talk about why starting a dividend portfolio at any age is beneficial. While it may not give you complete financial independence it can give you financial flexibility. Join me to find out what you can achieve with not a great deal of time and an average dividend growth portfolio.

Each month I run a screening process to find the top 10 best high yield dividend stocks for the given month. These high yield dividend stocks are selected based on the best combination of business quality and valuation with a focus on future returns. My minimum dividend yield threshold for this watchlist is 2.75% but often the average dividend yield presented is around 4.82%. Additionally the selected stocks offer above average dividend growth for the yield they currently pay. I use this monthly watchlist to identify potential stocks to add to my portfolio. And I share this process here with you so that you can see how it works and perhaps improve your strategy as a result. Enjoy!

You've probably heard that most investors and professional fund managers alike cannot beat the S&P 500 in the long run. This is true, but did you ever wonder why its so hard to beat the S&P? When we look back at historical returns all of the paths that would have outperformed the S&P look obvious. The problem is that everything looks clear in hindsight, but when you're acting in the present things tend to get a bit more complicated. Today I want to share with you one of the factors that makes it very difficult to beat the S&P in the long run. I hope you enjoy!
