Aflac Action Forum

Yes indeed too much noordusa always had a lot of interest in it, so I want to $NN (+0,74 %) buy and $ASRNL (+1,36 %)
add on and add to the euro div etf to spread something outside USA. Also $KPN (-0,64 %)
and $WKL (+0,17 %) seem interesting to me. I am indeed trying to keep under 10% by own money, but if by growth I get above that, I would be fine with that. (Let your runners run)

Growth indeed I am looking at: $SBUX (-0,48 %) and $CMI
$DE (+1,27 %)
$HSY (-1,31 %)
$TRV (-0,62 %)
$APD (+0,81 %)
$MCO (+0 %)
$ADP (-1,79 %)

But also for a little more dividend $MAA (-1,13 %)
$TD (-0,07 %)
$AFL (-1,07 %)
$AVB (-0,95 %)

Main I bought when it was very low and interest rates were also very low, so so the risk was much less. Only bought once. I may well stay away from this for a long time and use the dividend for the dividend snowball.

Otherwise quite difficult to stick with these boring and safe stocks, but this is what I like and sleep best with. (Slow but "sure")

Fantastic explanation everything was indeed correct how I think about it and this helps me tremendously to persevere, thank you Paul.

I'm curious what you guys think of this YouTube money tree show

No. 15 Aflac

From March, the dividend will be increased for the 42nd year in a row by 19% from $0.42 to 0.50$ per share\quarter,

I was lucky in October 2020 and caught Aflac exactly at the low point at 30€, since then Aflac has done very well and is one of my best stocks in terms of performance, almost 3 years later I "fed" my "duck" for the first time today at 140% plus 😊

Even today Aflac is anything but expensive with a 10 P/E ratio, as reported on November 1, adjusted earnings in the last quarter were 1.1 billion$ or 1.84$ per share, 27.8% more than in the previous year

It also bought back 9.4 million shares for $700 million during the period

Servus my dears ✌️☺️

Social Media , curse and blessing at the same time 😁 on the one hand you can exchange experiences and on the other hand there are people who know everything better and are clairvoyants and can tell you 100% with which strategy you will achieve the best return 😂

Since there has been in recent times at getquin again and again propaganda against the dividend strategy😁 and today #dividendsthursday I wanted to summarize my aristocrats and possible candidates for the future where I myself am invested. ☺️👍

If you discover the dividend strategy for yourself then it is important to buy shares that annually increase the dividend or at least not lower, and there are 80% actually only stocks from the USA in question 😁👍

Thyssen-Krupp ($TKA (+0,29 %)) - The industrial group plans to float its hydrogen electrolysis business in the first quarter of 2022. By spinning off Uhde Chlorine Engineers, Thyssen-Krupp aims to benefit from rising demand for hydrogen-based technologies. Uhde Chlorine Engineers was founded as a joint venture with Italian industrial De Nora SpA and builds plants for the production of hydrogen gas from renewable energy sources such as solar and wind.

Berkshire Hathaway ($BRYN (-0,07 %)) - Warren Buffett, with his company Berkshire Hathaway ($BRYN (-0,07 %)) shares in Royalty Pharma ($RPD (-1,37 %)), Floor&Decor ($1FD (+0,26 %)) and increases his stake in Chevron ($CHV (+0,94 %)).

Wirecard ($WDI) - After the end of yesterday, Wirecard shares disappeared from regulated trading. Since the fall of 2018, when the stock was at its peak, the security has lost 99.9 percent of its value. A total loss was the result of the stock market crash and Wirecard's insolvency for many investors who believed in the tech company "made in Germany." The Deutsche Schutzvereinigung für Wertpapierbesitz (DSW) recommends selling the securities because, even if the shares are no longer in one's own securities account, claims for damages can be asserted against the auditing company EY until 2023. This possibility is now being dealt with by the courts and the final chapter has not yet been written.

Bitcoin ($BTC-EUR (-0,75 %)) and other cryptocurrencies with strong corrections - On Tuesday morning, crypto investors, who have been spoiled with strong price growth across the market for weeks, must be looking at red deposits. Overnight, bitcoin, which can be seen as the leading index for the crypto market, plummeted 7.8% - with it altcoins such as Ethereum ($ETH-USD (-1,3 %)) (-8.9%), Solana ($SOL/EUR (+1,37 %)) (-6.6%), Cardano ($ADA-USD (-3,84 %)) (-5.6%) or Polkadot ($DOT/EUR (-2,3 %)) (-9,8%). A direct reason for this sudden slump cannot be identified. However, analysts suspect that the coordinated liquidation of leverage positions have pushed the price down so much for the second time in a month.
