NVDA just announced a 2400% increase in its dividend payments. They raised it too .25 per share, equaling $1 per year in dividend payments.
This is exciting! I own over 300 shares at an avg cost of $40 per share. Do you own this stock? Will this compel you to buy more or become a shareholder?
Wishing you much investing success ahead.
I am already in QQQI +1.89%, SCHD +3.14%, OMAH +3.83%. Percentages are gains since I purchased. Though I may have to keep EPD, it is up 5.86% since purchase. If I sell the individual stocks I will have about 6000 to put somewhere else. Currently that is about 33% of my total portfolio.
I was looking at VOO, but the mix there is almost identical to QQQI and I would like to avoid that much overlap. Any suggestions?

Building a dividend-focused portfolio alongside my local holdings for USD-based passive income. Selection criteria: consistent dividend history, reasonable payout ratio, sector diversification.
Holdings: JPM 14% · XOM 14% · KO 12% · ABBV 11% · O 11% · MSFT 10% · JNJ 9% · PG 6% · MCD 6% · PEP 6%
Numbers:
- Total invested: ~$62.7K
- Net P&L: +$14.7K (23.4%)
- Forward 12mo dividend: $2,157
- Monthly avg: ~$180/mo
Biggest questions I have: Is the XOM + KO weighting too heavy? Does MSFT make sense in a dividend portfolio given its low yield?
Roast me 👇
NVDA raises dividend by 2400% from $.04 to $1 to get yield of ~0.45%. Almost inline with other big tech megacaps!
I got 100k to invest in a brokerage account to retire in 15 to 20 years. Should I all in SCHD now or all in VOO now and convert to SCHD slowly later before retiring? Or half and half? I already maxed out the IRA, filled up the emergency funds, and filled up my gas tank. Thank you in advance for all the feedback.
Its one of my country biggest banks, and after a while of going for a 7% in yield they wanted people to come and get the 20% yield they are offering this year. Sooooo, i have to ask, does anyone appear interested in this? Is It appealing? Is It a grab and go situation?
JEPI 25% $125,000
JEPQ 20% $100,000
SCHD 15% $75,000
O 10% $50,000
QYLD 10% $50,000
BND 10% $50,000
MAIN 5% $25,000
XYLD 5% $25,000
Pretty comfortable holding all of them long term, but sometimes I wonder if sticking mostly to the biggest names means I’m missing out somewhere else.
Curious how you guys look at this.
5 years ago, I would never have thought I’d be looking at a chart where my portfolio generates six figures in cumulative dividend income over the next few years. I would’ve thought that was crazy.
Took me a while but I finally realized when you first start out, the progress feels painfully slow. You get a few bucks here and there, and it's hard to see the big picture. But consistency and letting the math do its thing changes everything
That's it. That's the post. Tech gets all the headlines but Tobacco has quietly been one of the best performing stock categories in the world. BTI, MO, PM, IMBBY, JAPAY are all excellent. Telecoms have also been quietly nice, but way more bad apples to watch out for in that segment.
Getting into BTI at $30/share with a 10.5% yield in 2023 feels like a cheat code.
This is really cool. Been a big fan of SCHD. I’m not sure this would have performed VTI since 2011, but hindsight is always 2020 and I think continuing to DCA SCHD is going to be a great long term strategy.
I started a dividend focused portfolio and have mostly SCHD and O. A buddy told me about STRC (Strategy’s preferred shares) that pays a 10% monthly yield. Wanted to see if anybody is invested in it or has opinions?
