seems like a fake pump today. so trump met with some oil criminals, so fukkin what :heh: that doesnt mean anyone in america is gonna buy more oil

next week should be :shaq:

we still hoping for a blood bath and shyt to hit rock bottom? Remind me if Tesla gets to 450 again to just put up some money on that. All I’m eyeing is Boeing to drop under 100 and delta under 20. I think I’m being greedy and gonna miss the train but we shall see. If Disney goes to 80 but they been maintaining at mid 90’s. Other than that, I don’t know man. Not trying to go beyond my budget of 1-2k for this being my first time.

Bought BND. That's what I'll be throwing my spare change at from now on. Pays a monthly dividend of like 19 cents a share. Also picked up a share of FB for $157. Need to build out a larger position in the company and any price under $200 is good.

:mjlol: I swear, what's with you and these baby dividends?

:mjlol:Didn't that youtuber you posted way back teach you a lesson? The most popular dividend stocks are actually the riskiest, just because the percentage is super low doesn't make it safe. I been getting 50% on all my stocks and they paid throughout the recession with no sign of stopping.

BND is a bond ETF from Vanguard. It will be fine. I’ve never purchased bonds before but the yield on them beats a savings account. I don’t mess wit REITs. I buy blue chip companies mostly from the DOW 30. If you’re buying REITs you need to put them in a Roth IRA otherwise taxes will eat you alive.



I own 10 of the 30 companies in the Dow:
Apple
Coca-Cola
Disney
Exxon Mobil
Intel
Johnson and Johnson
McDonald’s
Microsoft
United Technologies
Verizon
Those aren’t baby dividends. They’re some of the best most stable companies around.

He’s buying REITs who’s yields have skyrocketed since this crash.

He told me to buy this shyt
7 Dividend Stocks at Risk of Slashing Payouts

EPR Properties (EPR)

Dividend Yield: 18%

Like Wynn Resorts, EPR Properties (NYSE:EPR) is in the experiences space. However, as a real estate investment trust, EPR is the landlord on properties, rather than the operator.

Still, like casinos, EPR will face similar challenges. That’s because EPR’s tenants include movie theaters, ski resorts, private schools, water parks and golfing businesses. Needless to say, these are pretty much all shut down right now, and may remain so for quite awhile.

That’s true of quite a few REITs, however. So why the particular rush to sell EPR among other dividend stocks now? Because management is making a headstrong push to boost the share price. What’s going on? They announced that they drew down a major portion of their line of credit and are using it to, get this, buy back stock. In fact, EPR intends to buy back $150 million of its stock. That’s a massive chunk, given the current $2 billion market capitalization.

EPR only has a BBB- credit rating at the moment, meaning even a one-notch downgrade would make it a junk-rated company. Yet, in the face of many tenants closing down for who knows how long, management is spending borrowed cash to try to boost the share price.

If it works out, great. If not, the liquidity will run out even faster. EPR stock is currently yielding a jaw-dropping 18%. Sadly, that yield may end up leading folks into a massive value trap if management operates too aggressively while its tenants’ properties remain closed down for the duration of the virus.

:mjlol: No question when it comes to stability, you got that in spades with your selection, but by golly, I can't deal with these baby yields that you find acceptable. Your dividend port is one of the few on this site that can see mine, yet your Yield is WAY off! I need moe bread.

Why have they skyrocketed?You said the crash but how come that makes them go up :lupe:
Because the share price fell but the dividend is still what it was when the share price was much higher. That means in the past if you bought the share at $50 and got a $4 dividend now that it’s $20 you’re still getting that same $4 so your yield is higher on cost.

:mjlol:My dividend yield is around 50%.

:mjlol:And he's wrong, I recommended EPR on a medium to long flip when the shyt was single digits, which would have made you 2x so far. That's mainly why I mentioned it. It's not the main feature in my actual dividend port.

That company you recommend is borrowing money to buy back their shares at a time when their leases are shut down for possibly months. It’s not a good idea.

:mjlol:Bruh I'm good trust me. EPR doesn't have a high enough yield to satisfy me anyway. EPR isn't even a minor dent in my total dividend port.

If a company isn’t a REIT and has a higher yield than EPR then you’re gonna lose your capital. No great stable companies are 50% yield on cost right now. No company can afford to pay out half their share price in dividend payments.

I don’t know breh. The market ate 6.5 million unemployment numbers like Scooby snacks.

This whole shyt is irrational as hell. If your horizon is 2-3 years, it’s still going to be a come up now or if the market has another dip.

but then again, who the fukk knows.
