January 2026 Newsletter
Happy New Year and welcome to the JANUARY edition of my DivGro 2.0 newsletter!
Every month, I write a market recap and a summary of my DivGro portfolio as of the last day of the previous month. I also summarize transactions that affected DivGro’s projected annual dividend income [PADI].
In December, I opened three new positions and closed four existing positions, so DivGro now contains 53 positions. Of these, 47 are dividend growth [DG] stocks, two are dividend-paying stocks, and four are closed-end funds. By convention, I label stocks with dividend increase streaks of five or more years DG stocks.
In 2025, I collected dividend income of $53,359 and options income of $54,767, easily surpassing my goals of $50,000 and $30,000, respectively. However, I missed my goal of increasing PADI to $52,800 by 31 December 2025, falling short by $924.
More than 1,650 members have joined DivGro 2.0 since its soft launch in February 2023. I have decided to delay the formal launch of DivGro 2.0, allowing members to continue with complimentary access to all DivGro 2.0 content, including my DivGro Portfolio.
