I want to start my dividend investment journey. I started with $TGT (+3.36%) as this is in its 52-week low. With yield of 2.88 percent. I know last year the dividend growth rate is not so great but overall divided growth rate is great. Help me to make wise decisions. My goal is to make passive income from dividends. I want to choose stocks which are non volatile but good with dividend growth. 📈 #dividend

Ouch! $TGT (+3.36%) is getting a real shave today after not so good figures. EPS is only USD 1.85 instead of USD 2.30. The slump can also be seen in the daily performance of my portfolio. I still believe in the company. Perhaps the Republicans will again pass laws that punish theft etc. more severely. It's a pity that I don't have anything on the side to add at the moment.
A brief update on currency trading.
Since my PC unfortunately gave up the ghost, I had to fall back on the company laptop where I can't use cTrader, so I tried currency trading with Scalable.
Currency trading with neobrokers is not recommended, SC blocks 2.5% of the profit on every sale and you can only work with leverage in the 150-170 range, where anything under 1000€ stake makes no sense, as currencies work in the 0.X% range
At least I was able to treat myself to the after-tax $TGT (+3.36%) shares today.
Sneak peak on trading.
In the meantime I've arrived at currency trading, had backtested the Eur/USD for the last 3 months, since this week I'm in with real money.
If the results are good, I'll start with FTMO and a €10,000 account in December.
Greetings from the office👋
