Bought: CAH, HCN, HCP, K, KHC, KMB, OHI, T, WBA

Happy New Year everyone!  With 2017 behind us, it's time to reflect on our new year's resolutions, our goals, our achievements, and our areas for improvement.  I make it a habit to set new year's resolutions every year and aim to achieve as many of them as possible.  Looking back over this past year, I have achieved a majority of my new year's resolutions so I'm very happy about that.  With the start of the new year, I'm optimistic that 2018 will be just as good, if not better, than 2017.

It's been a while since I've posted, but I plan to post my monthly reports for October, November, and December before the end of this month.

October was a great month for picking up stocks, and I did my best to capitalize on that opportunity.  I also made some purchases in November and December as well.  Below are my stock purchases for the months of October, November, and December:
  • I purchased 5 shares of Cardinal Health, Inc. (CAH) at $62.75 per share in my taxable brokerage account.  This is a dividend yield of 2.95%, adding $9.25 to my taxable dividend income.

  1. Now that's what I like to see. Congrats on some serious buying! Love to see many names in my January watch list being bought up. The health REITs have been whacked the last six months of 2017. I'm considering CAH, LTC, HCN, HCP and others for my Jan. buy. Thanks for sharing.

    1. Hi Keith,

      Thanks! I was pretty happy too picking up a bunch of companies from October to December of 2017. I like your stock considerations as I'm also looking at CAH, HCN, and HCP.

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
