In July, my portfolio value increased by $11,141 from 156,396 to $167,537. So far this was the best performing month of the year. I’ve been trying to break above 160K and it finally happened. I did not expect the markets to go up that much in July. The month of August has started pretty rough and the markets are drifting down. Let’s wait and see how the markets play out.
