Recent Buys From Fellow Dividend Investors (November)
It's been a while since I did my last roundup of recent stock purchases from fellow bloggers so I thought now was a good time to do another especially after Dividend Elephant reminded me about it. I figured that this time around would be particularly interesting with energy stocks reaching some attractive valuations. This time around I tracked recent purchases from 31 other dividend growth bloggers for the past month or so. Most of these bloggers can be found in my blogroll or my blog list in my right sidebar. There were dozens of purchases made and I have omitted stocks with only a single purchase. You can see the results below.Above you can see the number of bloggers who have purchased each stock since November 1st. Multiple purchases from the same blogger are not represented.
Without knowing anything more than just looking at this chart one might guess that something has caused energy stocks to take a beating. Clearly the price of oil dropping and the recent OPEC decision to continue oil production going has caused some weakness in the sector at least temporarily. Many investors are seeing value in oil stocks like COP, CVX and BP. This is the third roundup I've done so far and usually there is one stock that stands out but this time BBL really is head and shoulders above the rest in terms of buys recently. Investors like Dividend Mantra, Write Your Own Reality, Pollie's Dividend and Lanny at Dividend Diplomats all saw value here. I made a blog post back in August about the Top 40 Stocks held by dividend growth investors and BBL was at the very bottom of the list back then. I think that list would look quite a bit different if I did it again today. At the top of my last roundup was ARCP, TGT and AFL and it looks like all but TGT made the list again this time around. Also missing from this months list is KMI, GE, CLX and PG.
For more information about recent buys be sure to visit A Frugal Family's Journey for a more comprehensive list which also helped me put this together.
Full Disclosure: I currently own shares of UL, CVX, KRFT, KO, PEP, and WMT.

Recent Purchase - Piedmont Natural Gas (pny)
I think that most dividend investors try and seek out the most undervalued dividend stocks to add to their portfolios when the money becomes available. While I think that is a fantastic idea I'm a bit different in that I like to keep my payments balanced...
