My investments for week 2 of 2017 included GOOGL and FUSEX. The yield this week was 1.53% compared to 1.80% last week. The yield is low because FUSEX doesn't pay a high dividend and Alphabet drove down the yield even more. The amount of yearly dividends added ($1.91) is smaller than last weeks $4.49. These two purchases were part of my automatic buys. This marks 54 consecutive weeks without paying commissions on my purchases! The weeks without paying commission fees keep adding up! Slow and Steady!
Total Invested - $125.00
Commissions Paid - $0.00Current Streak - 54 weeks*
Yearly Dividends Added - $1.19
Yield - 1.53%
*Paid Commissions fees on selling motifs but not on a purchase in over a year!
Full Disclosure: Long FUSEX, GOOGL, ALL HOLDINGS IN MY PORTFOLIO
I paid $0 in commissions for my purchases made in 2016! How much did you pay in commissions in 2016?
