Back From Holiday

Definitely need a tall strong cuppa java this morning as we got back LATE last night from our summer vacation.  Our flight leaving Vancouver wasdleayed by 2.5 hours, so we didn't get to Newark until about 1 am.  And then we still had a 2+ hour drive to Ct.  Hit the hay at 4 am.

But, my portfolio did pretty well while I was gone.  Collected a few divvies to help pay for the trip as well.  I also saw another stock (BHK) appears to have increased their monthly dividend from 6.7 cents to 7.3 cents, a 8% increase.

I am now up 10.6% on the year. To put that in perspective, the MFI index is up 7.4% (had a good June) and the Russell 300 is up 8.3%.  So yes, I am pleased.

Here is my portfolio:

Then I know people still want to know a bit about MFI. The tide seems to have turned a bit more favorable the last few days.  The portfolios started  at the end of April, May and June are all ahead (so far) of the Russell 3000.  It has been a long negative stretch (the portfolio started 12/31/09 was the last "winner"), so I will say the formula is due.

Here are the new stocks to the tracking portfolio at June 22nd and the "dividend stocks":
