The month has passed and it's my favorite time, giving an update of my dividend portfolio. I haven't done anything this month in terms of buying or selling stocks. I have deposited €1.000 a few days ago which enables me to open another position in the next week. More on that later. So how did the last month go?
American markets were more or less flat, the Dutch AEX gained almost 1% during the last month. The dollar gained some ground against the euro, which is good for my portfolio since the majority is listed in American dollars. And what did my portfolio do? It gained almost 3% which is great. Even though I am focused on dividend income and growth, It's always nice to see stock prices rise.
