Quite a few this month!

This is a 4.88% increase. Due to this change, my YOC is now at 2.73%.

Update on goals
My goal is to receive $750 in net dividends in 2016.
With only 2 months to go, 2017 is well in reach.
Net dividends received so far: $547.64, while it should have been $625.
Still behind, but it will be a close race!
I hope to deploy a little bit of fresh capital after the elections, which may be just in time to reach the goal, but nonetheless I'm very proud of the result the portfolio have given me so far!
How was your October?
