What Is The Rivkin Report?

Many people prefer a blue chip portfolio paying large fully franked dividends. The Blue Chip Dogs Portfolio is the perfect answer. The dogs are a portfolio of 10 blue chip shares that only needs to be balanced once per year. Its ideal for those people who do not want to manage their money on a day to day basis and its also a great way to keep brokerage costs down.

With immense investment experience gathered from decades of direct investing, the Investment Team has compiled some plain-speaking, practical ways for you to learn how to invest properly. They are a series of education articles known as Trading Tips.

These articles are available to all Rivkin Report subscribers and can be accessed anytime via the members' area of the website. If you have a topic you would like covered, please submit your suggestions via our contact us page.

Upcoming Dividends is a new section in the Rivkin Report that details all upcoming dividends over the proceeding week. Upcoming Dividends includes details on the company name, ASX code, Ex Date, Payable Date, Amount of dividends in cents and franking amount.

This is a weekly wrap of what Rivkin Report Director, Shannon Rivkin has been buying and selling. Just like his father, Shannon is quite an active trader. This section gives readers a wonderful first hand insight into what Shannon is looking at, and what trades are being placed.

Subscribers to The Rivkin Report will receive a report on the first day of each week that is designed to compact reams of financial information into detailed trade ideas and important market commentary. The Report will tell you: which stocks to buy and sell; how to manage your capital; what risks are involved; why we like or dislike the stocks that we write about; and we'll educate you along the way. Ultimately we'll do everything we can to help you make more money.

The Report is broken up into sections, with each recommendation clear and precise. We'll tell you what price to buy, liquidity levels, current yield, level of risk and also how long we anticipate holding the stock. Recommendations will also receive running commentary as the investment progresses; and then, of course, when and at what price to sell.

The Rivkin Report kicks off with a summary of the previous week's market activity. The aim of the market wrap is to filter out all of the noise and provide subscribers with a succinct, informative and meaningful analysis of the Australian and world financial markets. The market wrap is a great way to stay up to speed with the markets without the need to spend hours scouring financial publications and news services.

At the beginning of every Report a table is provided, outlining which of our current recommendations are trading at prices we feel still represent attractive buying. This table acts as a quick reference on what to buy for the week ahead. In this table we provide the current share price, our recommended entry price, the Report number in which we first recommended the stock as well as the risk level of the investment and the length of time we expect to hold. The stocks in the table are also linked to 'The Story So Far' for each particular stock.

As not all important events occur on a Monday, The Rivkin Report team also uses mid-week updates to communicate with subscribers. Should a situation change in one of our recommended stocks or a new stock come onto our buy radar, a mid-week update will be sent out. This update is sent out via email or fax, or subscribers can also elect to receive notification via text message, just in case you don't happen to be in reach of your computer. This injects real time investment dynamism throughout the week and allows subscribers to be kept up to date as opportunities arise.

Virtually Live is a weekly audio show put together by the Investment Team, designed to answer subscribers' questions as well as discuss important market issues. Questions are emailed in via the website and each week the show is put together in a format that can be streamed on demand or downloaded to your PC or Mac computer.

Subscribers can hear our views on topics as wide ranging as current recommendations, to the global economy, to who we like in the fifth race at Randwick. Whatever the question, the team will do its best each week to provide a detailed and researched response.

As part of every subscription to The Rivkin Report, subscribers have access to The Bourse Investor Centre. The Bourse Investor Centre allows you monitor your investments online, 24/7.

The Rivkin Report stock consultants are here to discuss and clarify our recommendations, or if you need some guidance on other areas of the share market.

Subscribers find it is particularly useful to speak to our stock consultants during difficult market periods. We're always happy to have a chat.

The Stock Profiles section of the website acts as a quick and detailed reference to all our outstanding recommendations. Each individual recommendation has its own webpage, detailing our original comments and reasons for recommending the stock, as well as our latest comments and current view on the recommendation. As well as this text, the webpage also has a stock table highlighting our date and entry price of the original buy recommendation, the risk level of the investment, expected holding time, dividend details, a portfolio allocation guide as well as the current share price.
