August 23 Dividend Portfolio Update

Well it’s been 3 months now since I started this dividend portfolio and it’s already looking quite good.
I’m happy with the current stock selection and diversification.

Current portfolio dividend rate based on latest prices is 6.98%.

Total capital gains are $1,244 or 5.87%

Transactions costs are once again zero as all purchases have been under the $1,000 amount as allowed on CMC.

A few more additions since the last update, and increased some other holdings as well.

New additions to the portfolio:

CLW @$3.825 261 $998.33
DXS @ $8.00 125 for $1,000
MXT @ $1.995 for $999.50
RIO @ $112.90 for $1,907

Increased holdings of CLW, CMW, FMG and MOT
