Another month behind us and it’s time to report the July update. In July, my portfolio value increased by $1,651 from $152,626 to $154,277. In the beginning of the month, the market was volatile but then it stabilized towards the end of the month. The TSX index gained about 900 points from the bottom to the peak, helping my portfolio to gain value as well.
