Summary of Recent Buys - Week of October 11

My weekly summary of buys from around the blogging community for the week of October 11, 2015.

This weeks totals:

• 20 Total Purchases(+7 from last week)
• 15 Uniquely Different Stocks Bought (+4 from last week)
• 8 Different Bloggers Posted Buys(+1 from last week)

A total of $16,749 was invested in dividend stocks this week. About a $7k increase from last week. Things are picking up again this week.

Bloggers increased forward yearly dividends by  $864! That's a 5.2% Average Yield on Investment!

Top Purchased Stocks this week:

1. WMT- 4 Buys
2. CVX - 2 Buys

WMT was the clear winner last week and its no surprise. The 10% drop in one day really made the value present. They are going through a slightly stagnant time with earnings (decreasing estimates through 2017) but it now supports a 3.3% dividend which is solid.

Here is the F.A.S.T Graph for WMT.

Here is the summary of stocks, amount invested, and which blogger posted the buy:
