Nasdaq Baltic

On March 20, 2020, I sold all 750 shares of Baltic Horzion Fund.​ I had, getting EUR 1.02 per share. I hope to buy back these shares in the future, as Baltic Horizon Fund is one of the rare companies from the Nasdaq Baltics I really liked.  I sold because I was facing rough times in my US broker account, I just needed to deposit additional cash to close my negative balance and avoid further margin calls As said, I'm very sad seeing Baltic Horizon Fund leaving my portfolio now, and I'm looking to take back some shares in the future (hopefully with the same lower prices)

On October 21, 2019, I sold all 625 shares of Ignitis gamyba, previously known as  Lietuvos energijos gamyba (LNR1L) I had, getting EUR 0.56 per share, to finance the purchase of US stocks. LNR1L​ has been in my portfolio since early 2018. Unlike the most of the Nasdaq Baltic listed companies LNR1L​ paid bi-annual dividend Ignitis gamyba was neither a good nor a bad investment. After holding it for about 2 years. I have made a very tiny profit from dividends, but the value invested has decreased. The good news probably is that I won't need to pay any tax on this as I have already paid…

On September 2, 2019, I sold all 30 shares of Tallinna Vesi (TVEAT) I had, getting EUR 10.85 per share, to finance the purchase of US stocks. TVEAT has been in my portfolio since 2017. As most of the Nasdaq Baltic listed companies TVEAT paid just an annual dividend.  Tallinna Vesi was neither a good nor a bad investment. After holding it for about 2 years. I have made a very tiny profit from dividends, but the value invested has decreased. The good news probably is that I won't need to pay any tax on this as I have already paid dividend taxes and there is no need to pay tax on a losing…

On August 7th, 2019 I bought an additional 250 shares of Baltic Horizon Fund (NHCBHFFT) at EUR 1.38 per share. With its quarterly dividend of 0.025 (before tax) euro cents per share, this latest buy has a dividend yield of 7.2% and will pay us an additional EUR 6.25 every quarter. Nothing to brag about, but still a decent. Baltic Horizon Fund now takes ~ 15% of my Nasdaq Baltics holdings.  For the rest of the year, I'm looking to get a EUR 12.5 (USD 13.83 ) from this buy, which is about 0.67% from my $2,045 goal for 2019 2018 in Review and Financial Goals for 2019  I don't have any plans to…

On March 12th, 2019, I bought 200 shares of  Apranga (APG1L) paying EUR 1.61 per share. Apranga stock has been on my stock watchlist since August 2018. Now, there are a couple of reasons I really like this stock and there is one reason which makes me concerned in the short term.  Here are the good characteristics I found - Relatively cheap price (hell, most of the Baltic equities are relatively cheap), decent dividend yield (around 7% for 2018), and what's important for me - it has a dividend payment once in a year, in May. For May 2019, I have a goal to "supercharge" my dividend income and…

On February 26th, 2019, I bought an additional 26 shares of Tallinna Kaubamaja Grupp (TKM1T) paying EUR 9.28  per share. It was announced that Tallinna Kaubamaja Grupp is looking to pay out a dividend of EUR 0.71 this April.  I've been long with this stock since 2017, and actually, this is one of the rare stocks I own from the Baltics which wasn't much affected during 2018. Top Dividend Paying Stocks from Nasdaq Baltic I'm Planning to Acquire in 2019 On the other hand, I didn't plan to buy more shares of this stock this year, but on the late evening night of February 25th, I noticed a post…

On February 11th, 2019, I bought an additional 200 shares of Ekspress Grupp (EEG1T) paying EUR 0.98 per share. As this stock is from the Nasdaq Baltic listings, it's hard to forecast future dividend for it, but as I have this stock in my portfolio since 2017, I'm looking for dividend on July. From the bright side - Ekspress Grupp has increased dividend since 2013. Last year it was a record dividend of 0.07 EUR per share. Unfortunately, Ekspress Grupp has lost about 20% of its value since  November 2018, or I have lost 26.98% in my portfolio (long since 2017). Right now it is too early to…

On February 1st, 2019, I bought an additional 300 shares of Energijos Skirstymo Operatorius (ESO1L) paying EUR 0.736  per share. As this stock is from the Nasdaq Baltic listings, it's hard to forecast future dividend for it, but as I have this stock in my portfolio since 2017, I know that there are bi-annual dividend payments happening in April and October, and the dividend has been in the range EUR 0.03935 (2018) - EUR 0.10386 (2017) during 2016 - 2018.  In fact, this is one of the rare Nasdaq Baltic stocks paying dividend twice a year.  Top Dividend Paying Stocks from Nasdaq Baltic I'm…

On January 3rd, 2019 I bought an additional 250 shares of Baltic Horizon Fund (NHCBHFFT) at EUR 1.311 per share. With its quarterly dividend of 0.025 euro cents per share, this latest buy has a dividend yield of 7.6% and will pay additional EUR 6.25 every quarter. Nothing to brag about, but still a decent. Baltic Horizon Fund has been on my radar since the August 2017. Actually first spotted in March 2017, while doing research on Top Dividend Paying stocks in the Baltics. I first added Baltic Horizon Fund to the portfolio in February 2018, see: Why I'm Investing in Baltic Horizon Fund (…

I've been investing in the Baltic equity market since April 2017, currently (2018) my capital has been exposed to 16 companies listed on the Nasdaq Baltic stock exchange giving a combined dividend yield (after two years) on cost 7.99%. On the other hand, the total value for my Baltic holdings has been down -21.56% (without dividends) and -9.76% (with dividends). The drop has happened in 2018. As there have been drops anywhere else this year, I'm not too concerned regarding this.  In fact, it has been a while since I bought my latest Baltic stock, in 2018 I'm more focusing in the US stock…
