Portfolio Insight asked authors of leading investing websites to share the 10 best dividend stocks now. I recommend Blackstone Inc. (BX) and Brookfield Asset Management (BAM-a.TO and BAM). The remaining 8 companies are recommendations by other guest contributors. My reasons for liking these two asset managers are found in the following posts: Blackstone Should Richly [...]
Based on my analysis, Blackstone Inc. (BX) should richly reward long-term shareholders. Investors should consider the current share price weakness as a window of opportunity. I last reviewed BX in my April 25, 2022 Consider Blackstone For Alternative Asset Exposure guest post at Dividend Power; prior BX posts are accessible in the Archives section of [...]
Wealth creation through Danaher (DHR) share ownership is possible. Share price weakness despite strong results and a somewhat more favourable valuation relative to the last several months of 2021, provides investors with a window of opportunity. I last wrote about Danaher (DHR) in my April 21, 2022 post following the release of Q1 2022 results. [...]
I have reviewed Lockheed Martin (LMT) in several previous posts accessible through the FFJ Archives. My most recent post was on April 19, 2022 at which time I considered LMT to be unattractively valued. I now revisit LMT following the July 19, 2022 release of Q2 2022 results. Financials Q2 2022 Results LMT's Q2 2022 [...]
In my recent Imperial Oil (IMO) Is Gushing Free Cash Flow guest post at Dividend Power, I explain why I am not initiating a position in the company.

Profit From PepsiCo's Addictive Products Many investors are undoubtedly familiar with PepsiCo, Inc. (PEP); its product offerings can be viewed here. It is, after all, a company which sold consumable products in more than 200 countries and territories in FY2021. While PEP has an entire section on its website devoted to Health & [...]
Goldman Sachs' (GS) earnings have historically been volatile. Once David Solomon took over CEO responsibilities from Lloyd Blankfein in January 2019, however, the firm embarked on a strategy to generate more durable and sustainable fee-based revenues and to better manage capital efficiency. Significant progress has been made over the past couple of years and GS's [...]
Imperial Oil (IMO) Is Gushing Free Cash Flow After mid-June, we witnessed a pullback in the share price of integrated oil and gas companies. I consider this pullback as a buying opportunity and explain in my July 7, 2022 Imperial Oil (IMO) Is Gushing Free Cash Flow guest post at Dividend Power why [...]
I continually look to add to positions and last reviewed Nike (NKE) at which time I concluded shares were overvalued. After that post, global economic conditions significantly changed. This has led to a decline in the share price of many of my existing holdings; NKE is one such company. While I welcome a drop in [...]
I last performed an Investment Holdings Review in this early January 2022 post. Subsequently, market conditions have radically changed. In addition, I have exited a few positions and have increased my exposure to several companies. My underlying reason for performing these periodic reviews is that I hold shares of many companies in a few different [...]
