A Dividend Portfolio for the Ages


I have been asked over and over from many of my friends, family, and colleagues; “What dividend stocks do you like?”  So, by popular demand I have decided to reveal my dividend stock portfolio. This portfolio is my retirement portfolio, it is held in an IRA. As a general rule I try to hold no more than fifteen holdings in this account and I try not to own any mutual funds in this account. Lastly, I obviously believe these investments as a whole will outperform the major market indexes on average the next five years. The portfolio currently consists of twelve holdings and periodically I may buy, sell, or replace holdings at any time. So, without further ado, here is the portfolio:

Mastercard (MA):  Price: $412, P/E: 28, FWD P/E:16, Yield: .30%

Starbucks (SBUX): Price: $48.89, P/E: 29.3, FWD P/E: 21.5, Yield: 1.4%

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ): Price: $64.77, P/E: 18.6, FWD P/E: 11.9, Yield: 3.5%

Intel (INTC): Price: $26.92, P/E: 11.3, FWD P/E: 10.3, Yield: 3.1%
