Hi, my name is Nicholas Paul, editor of The Dividend Post, devoted to income seeking investors wishing to take advantage of the unique income opportunities provided by Dividend Paying Stocks.

The Dividend Post is first and foremost a stock selection website,
where I profile great companies (U.S. and Canadian equities) that pay AND GROW dividends. My criteria for stock selection rests on the following sound investment principles rated in order of importance:

1) Solid Business Franchise.
2) Strong past financial performance.
3) Strong Free Cash Flow to fund future dividends and sales growth.
4) History of Dividend Growth portending to continued DIVIDEND GROWTH over time.
5) A good purchase price so as to benefit from capital gains over long periods of time.

This service is targeted at the following investment profile:

a) Long term investment time frame (5 years or more)
b) Desire for an additional and growing income stream in the next 5 to 25 years.
c) Risk averse

US and Canadian Equities are profiled for now but more updates coming with an international flavor.

Your current income represents your future purchasing power !

At only 3.5% inflation over the course of a decade, that which costs $1 will cost $1.41. So if you are invested in bonds or in fixed income vehicles, low interest rates will ensure that your return keeps pace with inflation. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE ! Your income stream MUST grow over time if you are to stay ahead of the game. Bonds and other fixed income vehicles WILL NOT provide you a growing income stream.

Furthermore, bonds, thought by many to be less volatile and more secure, also change value as interest rates change. Today, interest rates are at historic lows meaning they have nowhere to go but UP. Rising rates will cause the price of bonds to fall much as the stock market dislikes rising interest rates. All other things being equal, I would much rather hold a stock that is paying an increasing dividend over time, versus a bond that pays a simple interest rate.

Dividend Growth is all well and good............ how do you know if a company can keep growing dividends.........? This is where The Dividend Post helps. Our analysis breaks down the cash flow available each year to fund the business growth as well as continue paying AND growing dividends
over time.
