In April, my portfolio value decreased by $5,794 from $161,937 to $156,143. The market dropped in mid-April following the interest rate hike by the central bank. The drop has set me back to where I was in March. But this is a buying opportunity and there are a lot more deals that I could take advantage of in the coming months.
Dividends
Dividends received in April 2022: $605.33

Year-To-Date Dividend Income: $2,284.51
I’m now earning over $600 per month in passive income from regular dividends. This is a new milestone for me and I couldn’t be happier with the progress so far. All dividends are invested back into dividend paying stocks.
