Portfolio Value
As of April 30, 2017 my investment portfolio balance stood at $42,967.49. That’s an increase of $1,144.76 from last month. The main value increase came from fresh capital and dividends, the rest came from stocks appreciation. My current goal is to surpass $50,000 in portfolio value before the end of the year.
