A late post for this week, but I took some time off this past weekend to take a trip home. It was a nice break. Unfortunately that also I meant I came in just shy of my goal again of $50 dollars for the week. However – miraculously – I still hit my monthly goal of over $200 dollars. I’m not sure how, but I’m glad I did. My break also meant I started late this week, so we’ll see how far I can get during the last few days this week.
I wanted to take a moment to share the list of resources I use. I’m still learning, but I frequently check and read these web sites:
- MarketWatch
I read this for general economic and stock market news. I occasionally use it to look at stock data. - Yahoo! Finance
I tend to use this to look at quick fundamentals of a stock. I’m looking for a better method of screening and a better tool for analysis, but I haven’t had time to find one yet. - Bloomberg
I tend to read this after MarketWatch for a more broader sense of market and financial news. - Wall Street Journal
This has some good articles and I can also get a sense of what’s happening in the market, but I don’t use it to choose stocks. - r/dividends
I am almost ashamed to admit I read this because the advice is subpar to say the least. Most people on this forum are beginners, but there are a few comments that are gems from time to time. It could definitely use more moderation. - Dividend Growth Investor
This is one of the first dividend blogs I began reading and check it a couple times a month. It is dry reading, but solid and while I don’t always agree with the analysis, this style of investing is something I aspire to after my challenge is completed.
I would also be remiss if I didn’t give a special shout out to a couple other sites that have shared a link to this site. They were all extremely motivating and inspiring for this Beer Money Dividend challenge I set for myself.
