The fed made it clear their plan for 2022 and markets soared for the week. Not much cash left but I plan on putting every dividend dollar I receive to work to close out the year. Here are my trades for the week:
Received four dividend raises this week; 6.15% raise from Merck (MRK), 11.1% raise in C$ from Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS), 10.3% raise in C$ from Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CM), and a 10.2% raise from Amgen (AMGN). Markets picked up where they left off on Black Friday continuing to drop when the Fed hinted at accelerating the tapering process by a few months which made quite a few buying opportunities.

Hopefully everyone is enjoying their Thanksgiving Holiday. Thought I wasn’t going to buy anything this week but did a little black Friday shopping with the market drop. Here are my trades for the week :
Week started off rough when Compass Minerals (CMP) cut their dividend by 80%. CMP only makes up 1% of my portfolio so the damage is limited but it is not all bad news.

Markets keep pushing higher making my portfolio hit all time highs. Received a 3.5% raise from Telus (TU) and 2.4% raise from Pinnacle (PNW) this week.

Here are my trades for the week:
Another week of strong earnings being reported across the board keeping markets near their high. Here are my trades for the week:
Big Banks reported strong earnings mid-week and the markets rallied. Phillips 66 (PSX) was my only dividend raise this week coming with a 2% raise, not big but I was not expecting a raise from them this year. Here are my trades for the week:
The week started off continuing its decline but reversed course on Thursday after a short term lifting of the debt limit was agreed to by Congress. No dividend increases were announced this week so my only method to increase my passive income was to buy stocks. Here are my trades for the week:
