February

💭 My Thoughts 💭

Second month investing. This was about the time where the COVID-19 pandemic started getting wind. I remember the portfolio was declining by this time but it wasn't by much. Lots of dividends came in this month. Including the highest one so far at $0.14. My optimism was still very high at this point. The portfolio value by the end of this month was at 366 dollars with 91 cents. What could go wrong?
