This is my first post, so please don't hate. 🙂
I've been using the dividend strategy for a year now because it motivates me to stick with it. The simple one-ETF solution is too boring for me in the long run - I have more fun following individual stocks from time to time.
So far, I've mainly invested in dividend ETFs, and I want to keep it that way. However, I would like to add a few individual stocks to my portfolio to make it more interesting.
My goal is a maximum of 10 individual stocks so that I don't lose track. Here are the stocks I'm currently looking at:
- Realty Income ($O (-0,81 %) )
- Main Street Capital ($MAIN (+1,28 %) )
- Agree Realty ($ADC (-1,45 %) )
- STAG Industrial ($STAG (-0,13 %) )
- BlackRock ($BLK (+1,21 %) )
- The Home Depot ($HD (+0,8 %) )
- Munich Re ($MUV2 (+0,64 %) )
- Chevron ($CVX (-2,14 %) )
- American Electric Power ($AEP (-0,22 %) )
- Waste Management ($WM (-0,79 %) )
- Sixt Vz. ($SIX2 (+3,3 %) )
My questions for you:
👉 Are these stocks generally suitable for a dividend strategy?
👉 Is there potential for improvement in terms of sector and country allocation?
👉 Is there a stock that you think should definitely not be missing?
Looking forward to your opinions and tips!
