Portfolio Update February 2019

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.

Purchases
The market continued its upward trajectory without skipping a beat this month. I was disappointed as I waited for a correction that still has not come. Given that I have too much cash on hand, I had to use it to buy something even if at somewhat inflated prices, to avoid getting left behind by the market with too much cash drag. 

I added to BIDU, AN, HSIC, BIIB, AYI and CI as their prices went down. I also added to SRCL, LH and LKQ as their prices remain reasonable.

The rest are part of my monthly investment plans and DRIPs.

Sales

I sold out my 846 shares of FOSL at $16.18 and captured a slight profit of $701.40. I should have sold it last summer when it traded as high as $32, but greed blinded me. The fundamental is gone for this stock, and it is basically a cigar butt. So I am getting out while I still have a profit. 

The other two sales in CVET and WAB are due to liquidation of fractional shares of spinoffs from HSIC and GE, respectively.

My overall portfolio dividend yield of 1.66% is now lower than the market. My goal in the future is to continue lowering this to below the market by replacing dividend stocks with zeros to minimize my tax liability.
