In April, my portfolio value decreased by $3,390 from 158,135 to $154,744. The Canadian stock market experienced a slight downturn with a drop of around 600 points. This decline had an adverse impact on my portfolio overall value.
Dividends
Dividends received in April 2024: $769.22

Year-Over-Year Dividend Growth: $79.13 or 11.46%
Year-To-Date Dividend Income: $3,016.26
The dividend growth is at 11.46% compared to the same period of last year. The growth rate is sustained by dividend reinvesting and dividend increases.
Transactions
Bought 8 shares of Brookfield Renewable (BEPC.TO) for $29.66 per share
Bought 10 shares of Bell (BCE.TO) for $44.10 per share
Bought 15 shares of Telus (T.TO) for $21.50 per share
All purchases were funded by dividends. As of 2024, I have a new contribution room of $7,000 in my TFSA Account. I didn’t start funding my TFSA yet because I’m prioritizing mortgage payments in the first half of this year. I will probably contribute to my TFSA in Q3. Meanwhile, I will continue reinvesting the dividends.
Ads Revenue
In April, I collected $220.41 in adsense revenue from my YouTube channel. It was a slow month again. The ad rates are down and the views are down too. I’m not worried about that, because my YouTube channel is only my hobby and whatever income I get from it is either used for investments or day-to-day spending.
