Portfolio Update June 2019: Bought 22 Stocks (4 New Buys!)

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 posted a strong rebound in June. As a result, there was not a whole lot of buying opportunity, which is why I only bought about $5k worth of stock this month, compared to a net of $36k last month.

I replenished my cash reserve somewhat now. 

I made four new buys this month: ALB, SCHW, FDX, and RUTH. The first three are quality dividend stocks that have been hit by some bad headline news, trading near 52-week lows, and should rebound back later. 

RUTH is a small stock idea that I got from reading Stocks Under Rocks by Peter Richiutti. The stock is also trading near 52 week low. I don't have much conviction in this pick though, hence the small amount invested, more of a wait and see approach. The financial statements seem sound and I will buy more if the stock goes down more.

I added more to K and VMI which are near 52-week lows. Unfortunately, the timing of K in my DSPP is at a monthly high. I wanted to buy the stock closer to $50 than the executed price of $56.62. That's the price you pay for DSPPs, though, as you can't control the executed price. Sometimes it's higher and sometimes it's lower than when you initiate the purchase.

The smaller purchases are part of my monthly investment plans and DRIPs.

Sales
I did not sell any stock this month.

I generally prefer to sell stocks when the market is down and immediately reinvest the proceeds into similar stocks, so as to minimize capital gains tax and maximize tax loss harvesting.

My overall portfolio dividend yield of 1.51% is now lower than the market. My goal in the future is to continue lowering this further by replacing dividend stocks with zeros to minimize my tax liability. Stock market downturn is a good opportunity for me to replace high dividend payers with no or low paying ones.
