Safer Better Dividend Investing
Ian Duncan MacDonald's first investment book "Income and Wealth from Self-Directed Investing" introduced investors to athe following formula for investment success, "Build your portfolio with the 20 stocks of financially strong companies from diversified industries paying a dividend of 6% or greater". Not only does such a portfolio deliver a safe annual dividend income equivalent to 6% or more of your portfolio but you will see the total value of your portfolio grow by several multiples over the years. The 2008 and 2020 recessions have proven that dividends from strong companies get paid even during recessions and pandemics. In his new book "Safer Better Dividend Investing" Ian not only shows investors how to find their 20 stocks but he makes it easy by listing and scoring all 628 U.S. common stocks that were paying a dividend of 6% or more in August of 2020. With the strength and potential of each stock established in the score the 628 stocks are sorted alphabetically, by descending score, by descending share price and by descending dividend percentage. To insure that you have the most up-to-date score before ordering your stock, everyone who buys this book can request a FREE copy of his STOCK SCORING SOFTWARE.Over the last year, Ian has answered hundreds of interesting questions from investors. He now shares their 128 questions and his answers. Questions like:: How does the Great Depression 1929 compare to the 2020 recession?Why do so many investors not trust investment advisors?Do you see Tesla as an overpriced stock?Is it too late to start investing at 35? What are some lies stockbrokers tell themselves?Many investors are hesitant about buying stocks because they are not sure how to identify a financially strong company. The first chapters of the book explain in easy, to understand language, the importance of the eight key information items Ian used to build his stock scoring system. The eight critical items are: (1) A stock's current price.(2) A stock's historical prices.(3) A stock's current "book" value.(4) How analysts rate the stock.(5) A stock's dividend yield percent.(6) A stock's operating margin.(7) A stock's average daily volume of shares traded.(8) A stock's price-too-earnings ratio. The detailed stock scoring matrix is provided so that the scores are totally transparent and easily understood. In addition to the 628 U.S. companies traded on the NYSE and the NASDAQ, Ian also provides a list of all common stocks traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange who were paying a dividend of 3.5% or more in May of 2020. These 199 stocks retrieved are also sorted alphabetically, by descending score, by descending share price and by descending dividend percentage. Since the same compilation was done in May of 2020. The current score but last year's scores are displayed. About 20% of the stocks that appeared in 2019 no longer qualify. Several new ones have qualified for entry.

New York Stock Exchange’s 106 Best High Dividend Stocks
NO ONE CARES AS MUCH ABOUT YOUR MONEY AS YOU DO!To build a strong, safe, stock portfolio that will grow for the rest of your life and provide you with a generous monthly income, there is no need to entrust your life savings to an investment advisor. The 2% to 4% in advisor fees, charges and commissions will drain hundreds of thousands of dollars from your portfolio whether that portfolio grows or not. The secret of building a strong, generous portfolio is to keep it simple. This means investing equally in 20 financially strong companies paying high dividends with long histories of share price increases and increasing dividend payouts. Dividends are the quickest way to identify potentially strong companies. Scoring such stocks allows you to sort them from most to least desirable. Although readers are shown how to score stocks manually, the stock scoring software that is used throughout the book is provided on request, to those purchasing the book to make scoring even easier and faster. To further assist you, the book has identified, scored and analyzed the best 106 dividend stocks out of the 2,788 stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange. In a 2 page analysis of each stock, at a glance, you can compare each stock's strength: average volumes traded, operating margins, book values, dividend yield percent, price-to-earnings and of course their composite scores. Share prices and dividend payouts are supplied for each year back to 1999. You can easily see how these strong companies were minimally impacted by the stock market crashes of 2000, 2008 and 2020. Many continued to increase their dividend payouts through these crashes. While it is impossible to accurately predict future share prices, it is far easier to predict future dividend payouts. Fluctuating share prices that are a result of competitive bidding between positive speculators and negative speculators reacting to media hype, rumors and investment promotions. Dividends are derived from profits. Profits are the result of the wise revenue and expense decisions made by company executives. While profits can influence speculators. Speculators do not control profits. The book shows you how to choose the best 20 stocks whose dividends can average a return of 6% and, in most years, grow the portfolio's capital value by 12% or more. If you invest your annual dividend income you can expect to double the value of your portfolio within five years. Each of Ian's books have been an evolution in making it easier for both investors unfamiliar with investing to achieve safe financial independence and for experienced investors to quickly choose strong dividend stocks for their existing portfolios.

Venture Capital Private Equity Program
Foundations of Venture Capital The foundations of venture capital can be traced back to the 1950s and 1960s, when a small group of investors began to provide funding to early-stage technology companies. The concept of venture capital as we know it today began to take shape during this period as these investors began to formalize their investment strategies and raise funds from institutional investors and high net-worth individuals. One of the key foundations of venture capital is the focus on high-growth, early-stage companies. VC firms typically invest in startups and small businesses that have unique technologies, products, or business models that have the potential to generate substantial returns. Another key foundation of venture capital is the equity stake that VC firms take in the companies they invest in. In exchange for providing funding, VC firms typically receive an ownership stake in the company, which gives them a share of the profits and losses. This aligns the interests of the VC firm and the company, as both are working towards the same goal of creating a successful and profitable business. Networking and mentorship are also important foundations of venture capital. Venture capital firms often have a strong network of industry contacts and can provide valuable resources such as management expertise, business connections, and strategic guidance to help the companies they invest in succeed. The idea of exits is also a foundation of venture capital. Venture capital firms typically aim for significant returns on their investments, and they typically exit their investments through a sale of the company or an initial public offering (IPO). This can be a significant source of returns for investors and can help to fuel the growth of the venture capital industry. Finally, the foundation of venture capital is the understanding of risk and reward. It's a high-risk, high-reward form of investing. While many venture-backed companies fail, a small number of them can generate substantial returns for investors. Overall, the foundations of venture capital include a focus on high-growth, early-stage companies, an equity stake in the companies, networking, mentorship, exits, and the understanding of risk and reward.

How I Made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market
Nicolas Darvas was a dancer, self-taught investor and author. He is best known for his book, "How I Made $2,000,000 in the Stock Market." He discovered investing in 1952, when a Toronto nightclub, unable to pay him in cash, instead paid him with shares. It was on a two-year tour of the world that he initially developed his 'Darvas Box' method of screening stocks - a method of picking stocks based on the stock's price and volume - and later went on to refine this to remove any human element from his trading to substantial success. Nicolas Darvas is regarded as one of the best traders in the history of the market and his method, whilst complicated and difficult to master, has been rigorously tested and has been found to be one of the best trading systems yet developed.

Security Prices in a Competitive Market
This book is a sequel to An Introduction to Risk and Return from Common Stocks (The MIT Press, 1969), although it is fully self-contained and can be read independently. Both books describe in non-technical language the behavior of common stock prices as revealed by formal statistical work. In the process they offer a broad survey of recent quantitative academic research on the subject, much of which is currently in an inaccessible form.The earlier book, which the New York Times says rates high as reading for every professional investor, was concerned with the basic factors affecting risk and return from common stocks. The present work is concerned primarily with unusual factors that may influence the value of an investment. It is divided into three parts: the first considers various company decisions that may affect the price of its stock (decisions on capital structure, dividend policy, and acquisitions); the second looks at particular types of activity in the stock (insider trading, short selling, and secondary distributions); while the third considers securities that are convertible to common stock. Richard Brealey continues to cover new ground. Little of the material in this book can be found in existing investments texts, and like his first book, it should provide an invaluable source of information for the professional investor and may well be received in the same spirit.

Redressing Historical Injustice
This book offers an alternative to perspectives of distributive justice which fail to resolve economic inequality and exacerbate social problems by ignoring the real causes of inequality. The main impact of the book is to highlight the importance of self-ownership and private property, showing how market participation advances liberty and prosperity. The idea that we should pay reparations to disadvantaged racial groups as compensation for historical injustice is deeply contested. The debates often focus on the practical implications of paying reparations, but overlook more fundamental questions about the meaning of justice. What is justice? What are the implications of wealth redistribution for individual liberty and the rule of law? This book answers these questions through an analysis of classical liberal perspectives in law, philosophy and economics. The book questions whether economic inequality stems from historical injustice, and explores the wider implications of attempting to create equal outcomes through legislative mandates. The book argues that free markets, resting on libertarian rights, are the best way to help disadvantaged members of society and to create the conditions more likely to advance economic equality. The book will be of interest to researchers and students of economics, law, politics and philosophy.

More Life Than Money
Sometimes the only way to move forward financially is to uncover what you don't know Financial freedom is no different than anything else in life, and the more closed off you are to uncovering the truth, the deeper you will sink into the unknown. Author, financial planner, and estate planning attorney Anthony Saccaro has been assisting baby boomers and retirees with financial matters for decades. In his deeply detailed and investigative meetings with families looking to build retirement portfolios, there is one common theme among all his clients: the lack of knowledge about retirement investments, Social Security, and long-term care has paused their potential success. The only way to anchor the many misconceptions surrounding financial savings is to lay out the truth and back it up with facts and investigative research. In More Life Than Money, Saccaro does this by using examples to showcase the importance of making informed decisions and how not knowing can be detrimental to your family's future.
