    How to Profit From the Profits of Great Dividend Growth Companies

    How do you actually profit from the profits of great companies?In this interview, I’m joined by David Bahnsen, Founder, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer of The Bahnsen Group, to discuss the philosophy behind dividend growth investing and why he believes investors should focus on the profits being generated by the businesses they own, not simply on what happens to their stock prices.David is the author of the new book Profit from the Profit: The Past, Present & Future of Dividend Growth Investing, which makes the case for dividend growth not simply as an income strategy, but as an entire investment philosophy.In this conversation, we discuss:Why dividend growth investing is about more than generating incomeHow investors can “profit from the profit” of the companies they ownWhy returning capital to shareholders mattersThe difference between profiting from business fundamentals and relying on stock-price movementsWhy dividend growth isn't just for retireesHow to identify companies capable of sustainably growing their dividendsWhy dividend growth can help investors maintain a long-term ownership mindsetHow to think about dividends versus buybacks and reinvestmentWhy David believes dividend growth remains relevant in today's marketThe philosophy behind The Bahnsen Group's dividend growth strategyWhat investors can learn from Profit from the ProfitDavid's philosophy centers on endogenous returns, the returns generated by the underlying businesses themselves, rather than relying primarily on changes in investor sentiment or market multiples.If you're interested in dividend growth investing, dividend stocks, passive income, long-term wealth building, and creating a growing stream of portfolio income, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.IMPORTANT: This video is for informational and educational purposes only and is not investment advice.

    This NEW ETF Invests in Companies Where Insiders Have “Skin in the Game”

    OWN ETF: Investing in Companies Where Insiders Have Skin in the GameWhat if you could build a portfolio around companies where corporate insiders have significant ownership stakes?In this episode of Dividend Stockpile, I’m joined by Haren Bhakta to discuss the OWN – Insider Ownership ETF and the investment philosophy behind using insider ownership as a key factor in selecting and weighting companies.Rather than simply relying on traditional market-cap weighting, OWN focuses on companies where executives, directors and other insiders have meaningful financial stakes in the businesses they help run. The idea is simple: when insiders have significant “skin in the game,” their interests may be more closely aligned with shareholders.In this interview, we discuss:What inspired the creation of the OWN ETFWhy insider ownership can be an important investment signalHow the OWN strategy identifies companies with significant insider ownershipHow companies are selected for the portfolioHow insider ownership affects the weighting of individual holdingsWhy OWN takes a different approach from traditional S&P 500 ETFsThe potential benefits of investing alongside company insidersHow founders, executives and directors can influence the strategyWhether high insider ownership can create risks as well as opportunitiesHow OWN compares with traditional factor-based ETFsThe types of companies that tend to score highly using the insider ownership methodologyHow investors should think about “skin in the game” when evaluating stocksWho might consider adding OWN to their portfolioThe concept behind OWN is fascinating: instead of simply asking how large a company is, what if investors also asked how much of the company is owned by the people running it?www.insideownership.comIf you're interested in factor investing, insider ownership, shareholder alignment, ETFs, or finding differentiated ways to build a stock portfolio, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
