In my December 19, 2023 post, I touched upon why I think investors can create wealth with a HEICO (HEI and HEI-a) investment. I subsequently covered HEI in a January 8, 2024 guest post at Dividend Power. When I reviewed HEI in my January 8, 2024 guest post, the most currently available financial information [...]

I last reviewed HD in this February 22, 2023 post. My conclusion was that shares were still overvalued despite the recent share price pullback. At the time [...]

Much has changed following my last Brookfield post on August 13, 2022 post. On December 9th, 2022, Brookfield completed a distribution and listing of 25% of its asset management business – Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (BAM).
