Portfolio and Net Worth Update May 2018

The time has come for my monthly portfolio update. At the end of every month, I will update my portfolio and comment on any changes. I do that for accountability and also so you may glean some ideas on how I allocate my capital. You have the opportunity to learn from what I do well so you can do the same, as well as what I do poorly, so you will not have to repeat my mistakes.

Follow my real-time portfolio here. Below is a snapshot of my stocks and ETFs portfolio as of 5/31/18:

Purchases
The general stock market roared higher this month, as I continued to buy specific stocks on the dips, such as AYI, CELG, GIS, SNY, CAH, BUD, CVS. BEN, and LB, while initiating new positions in CPB, LKQ and TAP. The rest are part of my monthly investment plans and DRIPs. 

Sales
No significant sales this month. 

Overall my transactions this month are up 1.37% of $15,138.14 net cash inflow.

My stock portfolio gained 1%, while my gold valued dropped 1% and my home value plummeted 6%, according to Zillow. I'm not sure what warranted this drop, except that Zillow is probably adjusting to my purchase price. Roth IRA, which is essentially 100% IJR, really shined this month, gaining 6.45%. I added a net $5,096.29 to my liabilities, as I took advantage of a new credit card offer of 0% APR for 15 months with no transaction fees for cash advances. Even just putting $20k into a savings account at $1.85% APY should earn me $462. I'm planning to use it to invest and earn even more. Overall, my net worth increased 1.78% to $1,277,995.51, due to net cash inflow (0.79%) and investment gain (0.99%).

Below is a chart of my net worth since I started tracking on a monthly basis:

My monthly performance against the S&P 500 is shown below:

May was a bad month for me relative to the index, despite a 1% return. YTD I am now up 2.22% while the index is 2.02%. The race is getting very close.


Thanks for reading!
