I'd like to share with you my own, personal watch list for 2012 :
Every weekend I will be updating my watch list with the current data from Friday's stock market closing. I will be updating the current price, the 52 week lows and highs, the dividend and the yield. Companies that have increased their dividend since January 2011 are highlighted in blue. When the stock price is within 5% of its 52 week low, it will be highlighted with yellow. When the stock price is within 5% of its 52 week high, it will be highlighted in red. When the yield is 4% or larger, it will be highlighted in green.
Word of Warning
This list is by no means advice on which stocks to buy and I cannot be held accountable if you decide to buy any of the stocks from my list. This is merely a fun way to show you how to keep a watch list for yourself.
So now there is one more reason to look forward to the weekend! There was a lot of positive feedback from my dividend list in the past and I hope that there will be more in the future.
Do you have a watch list of your own?

I think that is a great idea! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Dannyboy. Here at The Loonie Bin we aim to please :)
Hi addicted!
I'm addicted too. I came across your blog and I love it. Can you please share with us your portfolio in your TFSA? Also do you have any recommendations for 2012? REIT's seem overbought and pricy and same for most of the blue chips including banks. Do you think there are any good capital gain opportunities? Thanks,

Hello Me2
I have Enbridge and Bell for now. I don't really have any recommendations for 2012, I just know that when the market dipped in August there were some good times to buy. Perhaps there will be a big dip again this year.
What happens when a stock is near its low, yields greater than 4% and just increased its dividend... What colour will it be???
You'll see! :)
Some utilities:
CSE yields about 15%
JE yields about 10%
ATP yields about 8%
These three are the top holdings in BMO ETF ZUT.
