Ian Duncan MacDonald's first investment book "Income and Wealth from Self-Directed Investing" introduced investors to athe following formula for investment success, "Build your portfolio with the 20 stocks of financially strong companies from diversified industries paying a dividend of 6% or greater". Not only does such a portfolio deliver a safe annual dividend income equivalent to 6% or more of your portfolio but you will see the total value of your portfolio grow by several multiples over the years. The 2008 and 2020 recessions have proven that dividends from strong companies get paid even during recessions and pandemics. In his new book "Safer Better Dividend Investing" Ian not only shows investors how to find their 20 stocks but he makes it easy by listing and scoring all 628 U.S. common stocks that were paying a dividend of 6% or more in August of 2020. With the strength and potential of each stock established in the score the 628 stocks are sorted alphabetically, by descending score, by descending share price and by descending dividend percentage. To insure that you have the most up-to-date score before ordering your stock, everyone who buys this book can request a FREE copy of his STOCK SCORING SOFTWARE.Over the last year, Ian has answered hundreds of interesting questions from investors. He now shares their 128 questions and his answers. Questions like:: How does the Great Depression 1929 compare to the 2020 recession?Why do so many investors not trust investment advisors?Do you see Tesla as an overpriced stock?Is it too late to start investing at 35? What are some lies stockbrokers tell themselves?Many investors are hesitant about buying stocks because they are not sure how to identify a financially strong company. The first chapters of the book explain in easy, to understand language, the importance of the eight key information items Ian used to build his stock scoring system. The eight critical items are: (1) A stock's current price.(2) A stock's historical prices.(3) A stock's current "book" value.(4) How analysts rate the stock.(5) A stock's dividend yield percent.(6) A stock's operating margin.(7) A stock's average daily volume of shares traded.(8) A stock's price-too-earnings ratio. The detailed stock scoring matrix is provided so that the scores are totally transparent and easily understood. In addition to the 628 U.S. companies traded on the NYSE and the NASDAQ, Ian also provides a list of all common stocks traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange who were paying a dividend of 3.5% or more in May of 2020. These 199 stocks retrieved are also sorted alphabetically, by descending score, by descending share price and by descending dividend percentage. Since the same compilation was done in May of 2020. The current score but last year's scores are displayed. About 20% of the stocks that appeared in 2019 no longer qualify. Several new ones have qualified for entry.
