Investor's Journal is a diary focused strictly on investments and personal finance issues, primarily from a contrarian and retiree point of view. Follow along with an average guy's failures and successes as he learns, by trial and error, the fine art of value investing.


9/29/24- Our total liquid assets stand at $2,310,084, up $32,273 or 1.42% from their level toward the end of last month.

Our nest egg of all assets, including real estate, is up $186,957, or 6.97% since the end of last year and is now worth $2,868,997.

My wife's and my core 25 holdings remain as in our last entry. The plan is simply to post them through the end of 2024 or till they have been held a year and a day, whichever later. Once again, they are as follows:

Dividend Assets CHK; CMCSA; F; FINV; JWN; NXST; SD; WFC;

Value Assets ALSN; BOOT; CPE; GPOR; INMD; INSW; JKS; NEXN; PBF; SBOW; SWN; ZYME;

Growth Assets CELH; MNDY; NARI;

Exchange Traded Funds [ETFs] QQQ and VBR.

A value stock I particularly like at this time is Dorian LPG, Ltd. (LPG). It has a low P/E, also a low price to free cash flow, a high dividend (and a reasonably low dividend payout ratio), a D/E well below 1, and significant returns on assets and equity. A group of stocks of this caliber is likely to provide good returns. Still, of course, each investor is encouraged to do his or her own due diligence.

Disclaimer and Disclosure Statement
Much as I'd love it to be otherwise, I receive no payment of any kind for disseminating investment information unless, by some fluke, millions of folks, on the strength of these entries, start buying shares of stock I own, a possibility only slightly less likely than our being destroyed by a large meteorite. Do not follow any suggestions made in Investor's Journal as if I were a professional.

Neither I nor Investor's Journal will be responsible for losses by anyone who obtained ideas from this site.

This diary is intended for personal interest and general information only. You are advised to do your own research (as well as to consult highly compensated professionals) before spending money on anything.

I know of no reason anyone should take my financial musings seriously. At best I am a dedicated amateur providing a bit of investment-related insight and entertainment, at worst an amusing diversion.

My wife, Fran, and I may at times own shares of some of the assets mentioned here. But neither of us receive any benefit from reference to them, unless you count the mutual misery when we get it wrong, or the opportunity to gloat when we get it right.
