Summary of Recent Buys - Week of November 1

My weekly summary of buys from around the blogging community for the week of November 1, 2015.

This weeks totals:

• 21 Total Purchases(-18 from last week)
• 15 Uniquely Different Stocks Bought (-13 from last week)
• 15 Different Bloggers Posted Buys(-6 from last week)

A total of $25,485 was invested in dividend stocks this week. About a $2.5k decrease from last week.

Bloggers increased forward yearly dividends by  $1,394! That's a 5.5% Average Yield on Investment!

I have charted the weekly S&P % Return vs Amount of Money invested in the market for that week. Is there a correlation here? Does it matter? Probably not, but its fun to look at the data.

Top Purchased Stocks this week:

1. KMI - 3 Buys
2. HCP, OKE, POT, BBL  - 2 Buys

KMI was the winner again this week but with dividend yields at current prices, I am not surprised to see any of these names in the list. KMI, HCP, OKE, POT and BBL ALL have yields over 6% and all are over 7% except for HCP. Incredible!


Here is the summary of stocks, amount invested, and which blogger posted the buy with a link to the post:
