My forward dividends reached $732.17, this a 8.69% increase from previous month. Getting closer to my goal of $750 in forward dividends. I hope to reach it by end of this year.
My overall investment portfolio grew by 10.97%. 8.07% of this growth came through infusion of new capital (inorganic growth). 2.90% of the growth came through change in stock market valuations(organic growth). Largest position in my portfolio is S&P 500 ETF (39.2%).
Average expense ratio is 0.10%.

Thanks Lanny. I will reach 750 by end of this year ... then 7500 and then 75,000 :-)
DeleteThat's a solid increase DG, you've got this month to get that forward dividend income up and I'm sure you can do it!
ReplyDeleteYes. I am confident of getting to 750. Next stop 1000 :-)
DeleteNice work! Almost at that forward dividend mark. You can hit that by ear end. Basically one or two more buys. I know it's hard around the holiday time to have extra capital laying around. That is where I am at now. We will see what happens. Great month, now let's finish this year strong.
ReplyDeleteExactly. I had to replace my tires. I am hoping to squeeze in 1-2 buys. Let's see how it goes.
DeleteCongrats on a successful month geek. Here's hoping you can reach your goal of $750 by year's end.
ReplyDeleteThanks DP.
DeleteConsistent month-to-month growth this year... that's the way to do it. Early congratulations on reaching the annual goal next month. Here's to even better results in 2018!
ReplyDeleteThanks mate. This is the first year I have been consistent in my investment. 2018 is going to be fantastic.
