Monthly Report: July 2017

I post an update every month on the taxable dividend income I receive in my brokerage accounts, the non-taxable dividends I receive from my Roth IRA accounts, the market value of my taxable brokerage accounts, the market value of my Roth IRA accounts, the market value of my 401(k) account, and my savings rate.

Below is the monthly report as of July 31,2017:

Taxable Dividend Income (Total: $55.31)
  • The Coca-Cola Company (KO) - $20.53 (Increased 6.37% YOY)
  • Genuine Parts Company (GPC) - $10.86
  • Kimberly-Clark Corporation (KMB) - $9.77 (Increased 2.20% YOY)
  • Medtronic plc (MDT) - $6.47
  • Realty Income Corporation (O) - $6.03 (Increased 7.10% YOY)
  • Sysco Corporation (SYY) - $1.65
    • Total taxable dividend income of $55.31 increased 59.30% YOY.
New positions I added fresh capital to this year are GPC and SYY.  Existing positions I added fresh capital to this year is GPC.  All other dividend increases are from dividends reinvested and dividend raises from the companies.  I'm very happy with the total year over year dividend increase.

Non-Taxable Dividend Income (Total: $121.25)
  • Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (ADP) - $6.88
  • Genuine Parts Company (GPC) - $8.16
  • Medtronic plc (MDT) - $6.47
  • Vanguard Long-Term Bond Index Fund (VBLTX) - $99.74 (Increased 2.39% YOY)
    • Total non-taxable dividend income of $121.25 increased 24.47% YOY.

Market Values (Total: $445,929.42)
  • Brokerage Accounts - $123,875.35 (Increased 4.59% from prior month)
  • Roth IRA - $86,402.23 (Increased 0.81% from prior month)
  • 401(k) - $235,651.84 (Increased 2.30% from prior month)
    • Total market value increased 2.63% from prior month.
I'm not too concerned with the market value of my taxable brokerage accounts since the investment strategy with that is solely to generate a growing stream of dividend income.  As long as the dividends keep coming and are increasing, I'm not too worried.  Nevertheless, it's still interesting to see how it is performing.

You can see a schedule of the market values for my brokerage accounts, Roth IRA account, and 401(k) account as of the end of every month here.

Savings Rate
  • 33.09%
Savings rate was pretty good for this month since it's still above my 25% savings rate target so I'm happy.

    1. Hi Doug,

      Thanks! I consider myself a pretty conservative investor so I figure you really can't go wrong with companies with a long reputable history.

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
