Last two weeks were quiet and we had a peaceful Xmas. The last dividends arrived and we made 2 very small purchases.
On 21st of December we bought 1 share of Gladstone Commercial Reit @18,2305 USD and 2 shares of Gladstone Investment Corporation BDC @10,6252 USD
During the Xmas season we received following dividends:
- 40,34 € from Blackrock Inc
- 5,25 € from Dominion Energy
- 18,51 € from Coca-Cola
- 1 share of Main Street Capital as a DRIP, worth 25,79 €
- 4,42 € from Main Street Capital from remainder shares.
- 2,04 € from Cibus Nordic
- 0,08 € from Gladstone Commercial Reit
- 0,09 € from Gladstone Investment Corporation BDC
- 13,09 € from LTC Properties
- 12,75 € from Transalta Renewables Inc
- 1,68 € from Methanex.
Total amount of dividends in last two weeks was 124,04 €, which is pretty decent in our opinion. Total amount of the dividends collected in December was 485,65€.
And how about the 2020 target? We set target to collect 5300 € dividends in 2020 and we collected:
5313,50 €
We reached the target! On the very last day on the year actually. It was a really close call. This was our 2nd year when we had set target for dividend income, and again we reached it, even though the year was hard for us. We have quite a heavy position in REITs and financial sector which both suffered from COVID-19 and some of our pillarstone companies ceased or decreased dividend payments.
The portfolio had quite turbulance due the COVID-19. We took the end year snapshot of the values of our porfolio. Below is table of the portfolio by rolling 5 quarters.
| Asset class | 31st Dec 19 | 1st Apr 20 | 1st Jul 20 | 1st Oct 20 | 31st dec 20 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash | 1 799,7 € | 1 344,51 € | 700,81 € | 596,23 € | 1 174,52 € |
| Investment funds | 10 478,22 € | 10 478,22 € | 10 377,73 € | 10 383,21 € | 10 342,75 € |
| Coop memberships | 1 500 € | 1 500 € | 1 500 € | 1 500 € | 1 500 € |
| Shares | 124 914,13 € | 98 487,31 € | 132 343,57 € | 140 797,57 € | 158 383,37 € |
| Gross investment portfolio | 138 692,05 € | 111 810,04 € | 144 922,11 € | 151 777,01 € | 171 400,64 € |
| Investment loan | 7 018 € | 6 166 € | 25 740 € | 24 525,88 € | 23 023,01 € |
| Net investment portfolio | 131 674,05 € | 105 644,04 € | 119 182,11 € | 127 251,13 € | 148 377,63 € |
We started this tracking in beginning of the 2019, and our gross investment portfolio was 88 262,94 € and net investment portfolio was 78 901,94 €. So during the last two years we have increased our gross protfolio by 94,19% and net investment portfolio by 88,05%.
And then to 2021. We set our goal a while ago to 6 300 €. This means that we should collect 525 € dividends in every month. We reached this goal only 2 times in 2020, so we really have to work to reach the target. It is doable but again it is quite ambitious goal to reach.
Last, the figures.
