Description

this week we reviewed both our portfolios in relation to its Q3 performance. 

We started the show with the news of the week 

EMF asks European DGI about his opinion of Unilever's HQ move to the UK. eDGI shares his historical perspective for this move and why it makes sense to choose the UK. He does bring up the point though about its dividend reliability if Unilever starts to use the British Pound as their base currency. Will it mean that Euro investors will be exposed to additional currency risk?

Main Topic:
The main topic was about reviewing their portfolios and how it performed in Q3 2020. eDGI’s income from dividend was still growing strongly while his absolute portfolio value stayed flat. This was mainly due to a drag down in his Oil stocks and net new monthly contributions. EMF mentioned that Q3 was all about cleaning up his portfolio. He sold 15 positions and started to put strength back in his portfolio by focusing on high quality positions, Also EMF enjoyed a strong growth in his year-over-year dividend income.
