We've made it to the half way point of the year and the ETF portfolio is as high as it has ever been ($13,866) so all is well. Life is good. I'm really starting to enjoy this portfolio, much more than I thought I would. I don't talk much about my individual stocks but I basically have three portfolios: one for ETFs (this one), one for dividend paying Australian stocks, and … [Read more...] about June Update for the ETF Dividend Portfolio

ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for May 2024
It was another challenging month for markets and I expected the portfolio to start with an eleven, just like it has for March and April but in the last few days of May I came good and did some buys to push the value into twelves, woohoo! ($12,688) It's hard work trying to increase this little snowball by $1,000+ per month but I know the rewards are worth the effort. I've … [Read more...] about ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for May 2024
April Update for the ETF Dividend Growth Portfolio
April was a tricky month for markets worldwide. Investors didn't know whether they were coming or going so they probably did both as it was a very up and down thirty days. I improved the value of the ETF dividend portfolio by less than $100 but at least it wasn't a loss. Of course it would have been a loss if I hadn't added new money to the portfolio but that's a minor … [Read more...] about April Update for the ETF Dividend Growth Portfolio
ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for March
Easter and March are done and done. I had the goal of $11,000+ for the ETF portfolio this month and I'm happy to say that I achieved it. Increasing the value of the portfolio by at least $1,000 has been my goal since I started buying ETFs last year and I think I've mostly achieved this so far. Most of the increases are obviously new funds added but the market has also … [Read more...] about ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for March
Money is Choices ETF Portfolio Update
Another month down and the ETF portfolio is up again so all is good. The birds are singing and the weather is sweet, but damn, I have sold two ETFs and bought a new one this month! The initial plan was to never sell any ETF, ever! The beauty of buying a whole index of companies was that I didn't have to think about them. All I had to do was to keep adding to them and watch the … [Read more...] about Money is Choices ETF Portfolio Update
ETF Dividend Portfolio Update 2024
Well it was nice to start the year on a high. Let's hope that 2024 finishes on an even higher note! There's still a lot of new contributions to be made and dividends to be reinvested before Santa comes around again though. If stocks behave and increase like they're supposed to then the ETF portfolio should reach $20,000 this year! If you're new around here, I started the ETF … [Read more...] about ETF Dividend Portfolio Update 2024

ETF Portfolio Update +Betashares Direct
Well it was nice to have an up month for the first time since I started the ETF portfolio!.
