How fun is it to get paid? A lot of fun!
Today, the fund received a dividend from Ford. A portion will be reinvested. Another portion will be donated.
A new purchase of shares since the last dividend payment and previous dividend reinvestment compounding increased the dividend 48%. Compounding previous dividend reinvestements added 3.1% over what it would be without the reinvestment. KDK Fund expects the next dividend to increase by about 2% next quarter without a purchase of more shares.

Dividend Day Courtesy of AT&T and Nuveen Commodity Fund
Today, the fund received dividend payments from AT&T and Nuveen Commodity Long/Short Fund. Both dividends were reinvested for free. Dividends now represent more than 1.9% of the capital invested in the fund.
This is the first dividend received from Nuveen. It is expected to compound because of the reinvestment program. Dividends now represent 1% of the capital invested in CTF.
The dividend from AT&T was 100% greater than the last dividend received. This was because of both new shares being purchased and the compounding effect of previous dividends being reinvested. In fact, compounding due to reinvestment caused the dividend to be over 1% higher than it would have been without reinvestment. Dividends reinvested now represent more than 2.5% of the capital invested in AT&T.
As can be shown from the fund's performance, dividends are a key player in building wealth. The next scheduled dividend payment to be received will be from Realty Income somewhere around the 15th of the month.

Dividend Hike Probabilities For Portfolio
One way that the fund is looking to build its wealth is through investing its capital in companies that have a consistent dividend. One of the pluses in doing this is the fact that periodically companies will hike their dividend.
A good example of that is one of KDK Fund's holdings, Realty Income. Since the fund made its original purchase in January of 2014, Realty Income has hiked its dividend twice. This process has added not only more revenue, but when partnered with a dividend reinvestment program, has added more shares to the fund at no additional cost.
When looking at past behavior of the some of the other companies in the portfolio, the fund notices that there is a decent probability that the dividend will be hiked for the Jan-Mar quarter of 2015. AT&T and Sysco have regularly increased its dividend in the Jan-Mar quarter. Ford has increased its dividend in the last two Jan-Mar quarters.
Dividend hikes will allow for larger share purchases during dividend reinvestment, which will raise up the amounts of future dividends. This process done over the long term will ensure that wealth will continue to build at an increasing rate.

Dividend Day Courtesy of Realty Income
A dividend was received by Realty Income. The funds were reinvested for free. The dividend reflects the dividend increase made last month by Realty Income to $0.1831 per share. The dividend this month was 1.3% higher than last month. Compounding is also being seen in the dividend payment. 2.4% of the month's dividend is because of the dividend reinvestment program in which KDK Fund participates.
The plan is to continue forward with purchasing more shares while looking into selling covered call options in the not too distant future. Having revenue from dividends and proper covered call selling will put an extra kick into the wealth building process.
One large part of KDK Fund's path to wealth is through dividend receipts and dividend reinvestment. It is a nice way to allow your money to grow.

KDK's Investment Plan
KDK Fund has a mission to invest in companies and projects that bring a solid return while falling in line with the standards of the fund. The fund will look to create an income stream for its investors, inspire confidence in the companies and projects it invests in, and provide a blueprint for those looking to invest capital in worthwhile projects while at the same time restricting capital from projects and companies that don't go along with the fund's standards. There will be both fundamental and technical (price) requirements and analysis for each investment. This plan will continuously evolve as the fund grows and different opportunities arise. Feel free to make constructive comments and suggestions as the fund feels collaboration can improve the plan.
Please check back with this page periodically to see any changes made to this post. Updates to the post will be communicated when changes occur.
Current holdings include Realty Income, Ford, AT&T, Sysco, and Powershares Build America Bond ETF.
The companies or projects that the fund will invest in will have business plans with which the fund can align itself. Continuous success in execution of those plans is expected. Some topics that the fund looks at are below.
Management Behavior
- How does management run the business? The fund will use product management, wage behavior, resource management, and profitability as some of the metrics.
Wage Behavior
- Does the company pay wages that create a balanced work atmosphere? Does the company allow its workers to require support from governmental agencies and taxpayers because of its wage structure? What is the wage difference between the CEO and the average worker if the CEO is not the founder? Are stock options evenly distributed throughout the company?
Resource Management
- Does the company have policies in place that promotes stable resource management? The fund is looking to invest in companies that are making an honest effort in curbing its resource use. Does the company promote innovation within its resource usage for long term success?
Profit Growth
- What is the company's profit growth targets? Does the company have a plan, that when executed, creates profit for the company? Does the company make its money through a unique and protected product or service that provides the profit?
Dividends
- Does the company have a stable and growing dividend? How would compounding affect the continuous accumulation of dividends? The fund expects dividend growth overall and dividend reinvestment growth to expand as time goes on.
Options
- Are Options available to trade both on the selling and buying side? The Fund plans to use call selling in order to provide the fund with another revenue stream. If it makes sense, the fund will use the revenue from the call selling to purchase more shares.
Where To Invest In?
Stock/ETF Shares
- First Investments are in shares of stock and ETF securities. This provides a relatively stable environment for the fund to grow. The fund will grow from stock appreciation, and consistent growth in dividend payments
KDK Options
- The Fund will use KDK Options to trade aggressively looking for 5X gains. The plan is to only use a small percentage of the fund for trading options. The fund will look to momentum news and strong technical analysis for each trade.
