2020 December Dividends

 2020 is in books , one of the most unexpected years at least in my generation. Now coming to dividends i had a high hopes for December, but it turned out anticlimactic .I received less dividends this year compared to last December and it was significant.

One of the reason for significant reduction was very small distribution from RERGX one of my biggest funds .In 2019 I received more than 1300 in dividends and distribution from them.

Overall Dividends received were $1677,This is 38% decrease from 2019.But overall dividends compared to 2019 went by $10. This Year my goal was to get 11k in dividends and I achieved 82% of the goal. This year i will raise the goal to 12k Dividends. It will be very interesting to see where I will land.

Overall with all the things considered I  am ok with where things ended.

Recent Buys

 I have been very slow in adding new funds to my trading accounts other than dividend reinvestments.

Here are some of the stocks that i added  ,all of them are existing positions.

A total of $485 are added these past few weeks. Mostly trying to average down positions.

June 2019 Dividend Report

Half of the year is completed and  Here are the dividends received for this month. For 2019 i crossed  1000 Dollars in dividend income 2nd time. 41 Companies Paid me dividend this month.



Compared with 2018 this almost  800 dollars less . This happened due to reshuffling of my Funds in my retirement accounts and smaller dividend payment from RERGX due to no capital gain distribution like last year. Last year my retirement funds provided $1529 vs $576 this year . Some of the funds in my account  doesn't pay dividends.



Overall its  not bad ,i like the progress happening in my Funds . Net worth Went up by 4%  compared to June 1st.
