Q: Hi team,

I recently trimmed my position in NVDA and I would like to add the proceeds to my dividend income.

I currently owe BAC, BX, DFS, DUK, HAS, GLW, KMI, NVT, PAC, SWKS, VZ, WMB AND ABBV for dividend and some growth. I would like to add one or more US company to this list.

Any suggestions to add to this list? And, what company would you replace in this list if you have any concerns?

Oh, I'm not a big fan of tobacco companies.

Thank you for the great service and I really appreciate your insights.

Stephan

Q: Hi,
Your outlook for this company in the rising interest scenario. Is rising rate will be headwind or tailwind for this company? Companies past financial figures are good form investors point of view. In last 10 years it is buying back shares (share count down 50%), increasing dividend (dividend increased to 400%), sales are rising (almost doubled). Can It be considered as a good investment? If not then can you suggest some good alternative?
Thanks
