Weekly Dividend Investing Roundup - March 28, 2008

Written by The Dividend Guy on March 28, 2008

Weekly Roundup

There is a real variety of articles across the blogosphere this week and in other places around the web. Taxes, dividend investing, and asset allocation discussions were of great interest to me and I want to highlight some of the articles that really caught my interest. As usual, I want to start with the Carnivals I participated in.

The Carnivals

The Skilled Investor hosted the Carnival of Financial Planning and included my article on Are There Dividend Stocks that Payout Monthly?

Everything Finance hosted the Carnival of Everything Finance, which included You Can’t Be a Lazy Investor.

Some More Posts about Financial Mistakes

Canadian Personal Finance Blog provided his top 5 investing regrets - this was a very frank and revealing post and I encourage you to check it out.

The Articles and Posts

The Skilled Investor posted an excellent article on how individual investors undermine their performance in their portfolio.

Market Meltdowns happen - Curious Investor provided some perspective on this - times change but people don’t!

Keeping track of dividend increases can be tough to do - Middle Class Millionaire listed some recent increases in this post.

Asset Allocation is a passion of mine (in addition to dividend stocks) - Five Cent Nickel discussed how to manage your asset allocation with multiple accounts.

The Chicago Tribune has recently discussed the fact that some financials have not raised dividends, or worse reduced dividends. However, one thing that is important to note in this article, is that none of the bank stocks among the S&P dividend aristocrats has cut its dividend.

Are investment newsletters worth $300? This article from CNN’s The Mole attempts to answer this question.

Dividend Based Investing referred me to an article about an international ETF that tracks dividend stocks.

Bear Markets are going to happen and we need them! That is the opinion of Larry Swedroe, as referenced in this post from AllFinancialMatters.

More asset allocation stuff here - this time it is an update to The Money Gardener’s asset allocation.

Only 1 out 100 of us will become wealthy - to find out what this means check out Moneymonk’s post here.

Enough Wealth thinks it might be time to start buying stocks.

This was an interesting article from Dividends4Life - you would think ETF’s would be safer than individual stocks.

I like to read other people’s investment process - American Dividend Investor provided his approach to stock selection which was interesting. I would like to see how he uses fair value to determine value.

Financial Jungle looked at TransCanada Pipelines - a historically good dividend payer.
