Although the market finished barely in the green today, there were still many great buys found. The discounts were best found earlier in the day when the DOW dipped below 16,000 points. So as a long term investors, we took the opportunity to add a few more shares to our family's dividend stocks portfolio.  With today's purchase, we were able to lower our cost basis on another stock we currently own.  

Including the 15 shares added today, we now own 62 total shares of KINDER MORGAN, Inc. (KMI) in our family's dividend stocks portfolio. Our purchase today lowered our cost basis on KMI from $32.32 to 31.03. Additionally, our estimated forward dividends grew another $29.40, putting our yearly dividends at approximately $3,460/year (excluding our Edwards Jones account) and $3,819/year (including our Edward Jones account).

Since we had already held KMI shares in our family's dividend stocks portfolios (WF and EJ Accounts), the portfolio remains unchanged at a total of 47 different dividend paying stocks/ETFs and also 4 companies that either don't pay a dividend our has currently suspended their dividends.

  1. I like KMI buy, AFFJ! I bought it today as well. There have been few negative articles on KMI and next year earnings are expected to fall further. However, I really like this buy and would not hesitate to purchase more on further slide. Its tough to bite the bullet on this but its one of my favorite. Keep racing!

    1. Nice to hear from a fellow shareholder. :) I understand there may be rough waters ahead with energy stocks but it is hard to ignore KMI when it dips below $30.

      Cheers to future recovery! AFFJ

  2. So tempting to average down here, but I'm really heavy on energy already. Great buy at these levels.

  3. AFFJ,

    Killer price you got in on them at! Would have loved to have pulled a trigger when they were in the $25 range, just awesome. Nice kick to the dividend income!

    1. Yeah, we had set a limit order for $27 earlier in the week so it had executed automatically I didn't even realize until I looked later in the day that it went down below $26.00! Would have loved to have grabbed some in the $25 range cause has already rose roughly 6% since!

      Still happy with our buy and the additional dividends coming in November. :) AFFJ

  4. Nice play! Right before the Bank of America news. $44 price target I think it was. Even though you aren't in it for the growth, sure feels good to be sitting positive in a position! Congrats!

    1. Saw that on Marketbeat.com also. Although they maintained a buy rating, B of A lowered their target from $49 to $44. Even at the new target price, our buy looks pretty attractive with an upside of $17 (or 39%)!!

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting Adam. Best wishes. AFFJ
