Monthly Dividend Update May 2020

Monthly Dividend Update May 2020

Hello everyone, today I am sharing my updated dividend growth portfolio at the end of May 2020. I always keep track of my investment portfolio in google sheet. It helps me to understand my portfolio performance so that I can make the right decision of my trades. Using the spreadsheet, I will always be updated on my investment's past performance. I am saving 10% of my monthly salary for investing. I invest 80% of that to only dividend growth stocks, 10% to only non-dividend paying stocks such as Amazon, Google, Facebook, Tesla, etc. The rest 10% I invest in cryptos mainly in Bitcoin and Etherreum. I also buy very small percentages of XTZ and CHAINLINK. I don't sell stocks that often. I am invested in the longer term. In May, I have received $91 in dividends. I do DRIP of my positions. My top two dividend-paying stocks pay dividends at this part of the quarter. I have received $29 from ABBV and $25 from T. Other stocks that paid me good amounts of dividends are from AAPL and BMY. Recently I have added Caterpillar (CAT) and Starbux (SBUX). So in the future, I will receive dividends from these two companies.

The following chart shows the dividends received monthly from my portfolio. The chart indicates the growth of my monthly dividends with time. If I keep investing to these stocks, my income will only grow with time.

The following chart compares my monthly dividends on a yearly basis. In the last month, I have received $91while in the same month in 2019 I received $73. My YOY growth is 24%. 

The next chart shows the total amount of dividends received on a quarterly basis. My previous two years had seen an increase in dividends every quarter. This year it may decrease because I have sold some stocks and holding cash because of the uncertainty going on in the world. In Q1, I have seen a 24$ YOY increase on a quarterly basis. However, in Q2 my income will drop because I have sold a good number of high dividend-paying stocks. 

On a yield basis, the current yield of my overall portfolio is 3.07% while my yield on cost (YOC) is 3.92%.  With time my YOC will only increase because most of the stocks that I own increase their dividends each year.

The chart below shows the YOC and current yield of my portfolio with time. You can see from the chart that my YOC is going up with time 

The chart below shows the average dividend income received monthly and the average amount of dividends received monthly. I am slowly increasing my passive income and if I continue to invest in the dividends paying stocks it will only grow with time.

The chart and table below summarize my dividend distribution in the portfolio. The most percentages of dividends I am receiving are from Abbvie (ABBV), At&t(T), and 3M (MMM). They are covering almost 30% of my total dividend source. So I have to diversify my positions that's why I will not add any more stocks from these 3 companies. I will look to add more stocks of Home Depot (HD) and Johnson and Johnson (JNJ).

Name	Ticker	Top Div. Source	Annual Income
AbbVie Inc	ABBV	10.88%	$120.76
AT&T Inc	T	9.18%	$101.84
3M Corp	MMM	7.97%	$88.42
Johnson & Johnson	JNJ	5.46%	$60.60
The Home Depot Inc	HD	5.41%	$60.00
	Others	61.10%	$677.99
			$1,109.62

Dividend Received in November 2019

Dividends Received in November 2019

In November 2019, I have received a total of $89.69 in dividends. The chart below shows the amount of dividends I received each month in 2019. This month my dividend increased from $81.24 to $89.69 compared to the last quarter which is due to my addition of Abbvie (ABBV) and Bristol-Myers (BMY) stocks in my portfolio. Another reason for the increase is because of the increase in dividends from The Texas Instruments (TXN). On the other hand, I sold half of my position in Mastercard (MA) where dividends decreased $1.65.

The next table shows the total dividends received in 2019 from my portfolio. In total, I have received $843.17 this year.  

The next table shows my dividend growth performance so far in 2019. The last column of the chart shows the change in dividends compared to the previous year. The box marked green indicates the percentage of dividends increased in the current year while the box with red means a decrease in dividends this year. In the last month, ABBV raised their dividends 10%. This year I got raised from all the stocks except The Kraft & Heinz (KHC).

The chart and table below summarize my dividend distribution in the portfolio. The most percentages of dividends I am receiving are from ABBV and T (At&t) with 11 and 8.52% respectively. I want to balance my dividend percentage and set the limit bar at 6%. This will make sure that I am not dependent only on particular stocks. As I suffered a loss in KHC this year. They cut 36% dividends which lowered my income significantly. At the same time, I don't have to worry about ABBV and T because there is no dividend cut coming from them. Their payout ratio remains in the safe zone. I may add more T if the price drops below $32.

The following chart shows the dividends received monthly from my portfolio. The chart clearly indicates the growth of my monthly dividends with time.

The following chart compares my monthly dividends on a yearly basis. In November 2019, I have received $89.24 while in 2018 in the same month I received $64.65 which is 38.42% YOY growth.

The next chart shows the total amount of dividends received on a quarterly basis. This year, the first three quarter remains the same. I have sold a few stocks in the first few months of the year. Then I invested that money slowly. This quarter the income will go up because the invested stock paid dividends this quarter.

So far my current yield is 2.91% and my yield on cost (YOC) is 3.6%. The increase in YOC is due to the dividend increase of some of my stocks such as ABBV. However, the current yield dropped because of the bullish nature of the market.

My projected annual dividends in November 2019 is $1079. My first goal is to earn $100 monthly which is $1200 a year. I am moving towards my goal gradually every month as you can see from the chart below. I am investing 8% of my salary monthly and also reinvesting all the dividends that I am receiving.
