DIVIDEND STOCK INVESTING DOES NOT WORK (Haters & Skeptics)

Many people say that #dividend stock #investing does NOT work. They typically make two arguments against #dividends. Today's video covers those two arguments in detail and shows why dividend growth investing DOES work. And, I show this by sharing an exciting Excel model (sample stock portfolio), for free!

Before starting today's video, here's a link to the free hypothetical stock portfolio covered in today's video: https://www.ppcian.com/ppc-ian-divide...

0:00 Introduction
0:30 The two main arguments that haters have against dividend stock investing.
1:03 Download the sample $10,000 dividend stock portfolio used in today's video: https://www.ppcian.com/ppc-ian-divide...
4:44 Let's look at Kraft Heinz (KHC). Down 56.33% in one year!
5:10 ARGUMENT 1: This is the precise argument that skeptics use against the dividend strategy.
7:30 Skeptics believe all dividend stocks are like KHC.
7:46 What if I built a brand new portfolio in August, 13 of 2018?
8:06 Stocks in my sample hypothetical portfolio: KHC, JNJ, PEP, MCD, UTX, O
8:50 Why did I select these stocks for this sample $10,000 portfolio?
11:33 Perhaps the risky (deep discount stock) I would put in a new portfolio these days is AbbVie (ABBV). Although, I would never make a $10,000 portfolio all ABBV (or stocks like ABBV).
12:00 Rule when I started out: I did not like having less than $2,000 in a stock.
13:11 Stock performance from the hypothetical portfolio over the last year – getting into the numbers.
14:40 The dividend portfolio beats the S&P 500, even with the loser stock KHC!
15:43 This is why I diversify! Diversification saves the day! (Even with just six stocks.)
16:33 Be careful about value straps (yield traps).
18:40 It's interesting how the pie changes over just one year.
19:37 Dividend yield on cost is also beating the S&P 500!
21:54 ARGUMENT 2: The skeptics also argue that share prices are adjusted when dividends are paid, hence dividends don't really add value (vs. keeping the cash at the company).
24:38 Dividend stocks are more mindful of their money, in my opinion. They give respect to the shareholders.
27:27 Disclosure, disclaimer and closing
28:48 Don't forget – diversification spans both companies and time as well!
