The month has passed and it's my favorite time, giving an update of my dividend portfolio. Generally US markets have been up, although EUR.USD-rates have gone up. This diminishes my annual dividend stream but also my portfolio value when looked at in euro's. This month I initiated a new position in Baxter International Inc, so I don't plan on any new purchases next month.

Portfolio value
Though it's not a pre-defined goal to archieve a certain amount of networth, I'd like to monitor this progress as well. The value of my portfolio is €11.700 (as of November 1). This is an increase of €1.300 compared to last period, which can be attributed (mainly) to a deposit of €1.000 to fund the purchase of Baxter.

Bought BAX recently too, got it for 65.70, also I was looking to add some BP shares, but unfortunately they made a big jump in price so added KMI instead
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! You entered BAX at a nice price. KMI also sounds solid, but I am not too familiar with the company and the structure. I wish you all the best with your investments!
