September 2024 Portfolio Recap

September was an eventful month for Chasing the Yield. My annual income increased by $80, thanks to dividend boosts from Microsoft (MSFT) (up 11%), New Jersey Resources (NJR) (up 7.1%), and five other holdings. While there were no upgrades or downgrades in dividend safety, I closed our position in Oaktree Specialty Lending (OCSL) and used the proceeds to increase positions in, as well as take fresh looks at, ONEOK (OKE), Verizon (VZ), and TC Energy (TRP).
