In this blog post I will go through the dividends I collected in August of 2019.
I will also go through changes in my portfolio.
Dividends received:
In August of 2019 I collected dividends from 5 companies. The total amount collected in net dividends was 17,73€.
Last year I collected 8,86€ in August. Year on year growth in net dividends for July was 100,27%.
The reason for the increase is mostly because I have opened positions in Tanger, AT&T, General Dynamics and Lowe's.
List of the companies that paid me dividends:
General Mills
Tanger
AT&T
General Dynamics
Lowe's
List of the companies that raised their dividends:
Altria
Buys:

Genuine Parts
Archer-Daniels-Midland
Antero Midstream
Skanska AB
Monthly investments in ETF's and Low-cost Index Funds.
General on buys: The market went down a bit and I decided to use my cash position.
Other information:
For the rest of the year I'm trying to add to my cash position but the priority is in my emergency fund. The emergency fund is about 40% full. Should be able to reach 100% come year 2020.
Projected forward annual net dividends:
621,49€
Portfolios Yield on Cost net:
3,41%
