So I was looking through some of my shit. I should do it more frequently, but whatever, I'm not in anything for a short term.
I bought a couple shares of IBM in August and hell they're up 18% (excluding dividends). I was pretty shocked not expecting that kind of runup. I don't hate how their situated from a business/strategy standpoint, so I bought a couple more shares and turned on DRIP.
My positions in google are looking rough recently, but are up 19% since March. I think I may look to layer in some more purchases.
I have some positions in AGM which is a bank that does ag lending. I just picked up a share when the banking shit started happening as a reminder to check their financials regularly. That ****ing share is up 86.74% (excluding dividends). Holy hell. So I layered in some more in July that's up 17%. I don't know WTF it's performing so well. But I think I may just pick up a share every time I make a payment.
I bought a few shares of 3M stock in March when they hired a different CEO. That is up 48%. I haven't layered in anymore purchases because I'm still nervous about the lawsuits, but I do have DRIP on. I may look at their filings and see if I should layer more in.
MAIN is one I brough when HogFarmer was pushing it. It has been pretty good over the course of time, so I pick up a couple shares now and then. I'm not thrilled with the business structure, but it's been good, so I keep buying some.
The Deere stock I have had a rough summer. But has boomed recently. I haven't looked into why. This is another one I need to buy a share when I make a payment.
The other individual stocks I have I'm not excited about. Most of the portfolio is in VOO VUG and SCHD.
What are you guys excited about these days?
