The only change in my portfolio over the last month was that my very small position in BA.UN was sold through the “Small Unitholder Selling Program”. My strategy of buying out of favour, high quality, dividend growth companies will remain the same in 2008 as it was in 2007.. I don’t anticipate initiating many new positions in 2008 however, I will be keeping a close eye on U.S financials and suspect that I’ll be making some acquisitions in this sector later in the year.

MCM, That is a pretty good return for 2007. Does that include new money?
MG,
It does include new money. I haven't calculated the exact figure however I'd say my return excluding new money would be approx. 5%
I just wanted to share a free video with you that explains a service we've been using recently to *passively* generate in excess of $100,000p.a (on top my salary) without doing any extra work.
The service we've been using to do that is now being launched internationally for the first time.
If you click on the free video link below it explains everything very concisely.
This is the same research that private banks pay as much as pay up to $105,000 PER YEAR to access.
Here's the link:

hi, i just came across your blog and am thinking you might be interested in BPT, FRO and PCU. those are all high paying dividend stocks (excess of 8.5%...11.5% for BPT).
i've been shifting my investment approach from momentum/swing trades to value + dividend and feel that is your general approach as well. (is it?)
i write at www.positionmakers.com (messels). cheers!
Hi James,
Yes that is my basic approach. I'll make a point to check out your blog.
I see you have a significant investment in Chou. Given the weak performance of that fund, what are your plans for 2008? Going to stick with it?
Nice list of interesting stocks great selection.
